GUARDIOLA, DEFENSIVE LINE WORK

1. Description of the exercise ⚽

Task focused on defensive concepts of the line of 4, with emphasis on:

  • Simple coverages in lateral situations.

  • Double coverings in the central area.

  • Coordination and collective tilting to maintain defensive balance. The objective is for defenders to learn to adjust their distances and synchronize their pressure according to the location of the ball.

2. Organization and development 🏃‍♂️

  • Space: Half court divided into lateral lanes and central lane.

  • Disposition:

    • Line of 4 defenders in initial position.

    • Offensive players distributed in lateral and central lanes.

  • Sequence:

    1. The team with the ball circulates the game passing from the wing to the center and vice versa.

    2. The defensive line will swing to the side of the ball:

      • Lateral presses the holder.

      • Central on the same side performs simple coverage.

    3. When the ball enters the center lane, a center back jumps to press and the rest of the line reduces horizontal distances to ensure double coverage in the center axis.

    4. Rotation of roles after several repetitions.

4. Tips / Main aspects 📌.

  • Distances between defenders: keep compact lines (8-12 meters between players).

  • Coordination in pressure and coverage: whoever jumps does not do it alone, the rest adjusts.

  • Synchronized tilting: joint and not individual displacement.

  • Constant communication to mark relays and avoid mismatches.

3. Variants 🔄

  • Incorporate a defensive midfielder to work on additional inside coverages.

  • Add goaltending and finishing to make the defense react to more realistic situations.

  • Introduce higher pressure with the ball in motion and not only positional.

  • Limit offensive circulation time to force speed in the swing.
