Decoy Near, Finish FarU12 soccer finishing drill

A decoy at the near post drags CB away so the far-post runner finishes alone.

What it trains

Pull the defender to the near post with a decoy run so a skidding ball from the wing finds a teammate alone beyond the far post.

Decoy striker, sprint hard at the near post early so the defender has to go with you
Winger, look up on the last dribble touch and hit the ball along the ground across the six-yard line

All 5 steps and the set-up, playing in 3D. Put your own team's names on it and slow it down to suit your session.
