⚡ THIS WEEK'S FOCUS: FINISHING FROM WIDE AREAS

Mohamed Salah doesn't wait for the perfect cross. He times his run, adjusts his body shape, and finishes first time — before the defence can reset.

That split-second window is what this week's plan is built around: clean contact under pressure, timing the run into the box, and knowing when to attack the near post or hold the far post.

From first strikes at U7 to game-winning finishes at U16+, this week gives every coach a clear plan to teach it. ⚽
