Tired of Getting Beaten by Physical Players?
Here’s How to Outsmart Them in 1v1 Situations:
Physical players thrive on drawing you into a physical battle.
Why?
Because that’s their bread and butter....
If you play into their strengths, you’re making their job easier.
So, how do you turn the tables?
Focus on your positioning, anticipation, and timing to outthink and outplay them.
Here’s how you do it:
1️⃣ Stay One Step Ahead:
Read the play and anticipate where the ball will go. Beat them to the spot and disrupt their rhythm.
2️⃣ Capitalize on Their First Touch:
👉 If it’s a poor touch: Close in fast and take control.
👉 If it’s a good touch: Stay close and limit their options.
3️⃣ Deny the Turn:
Stay close enough to apply pressure but not so tight that they can spin past you. Keep them facing away from goal.
4️⃣ Time Your Challenge:
Go in with controlled aggression. Be patient and avoid diving in, which gives them an easy way out.
💡 The Winning Formula:
Stay calm, think ahead, and let your positioning do the work.
Outsmart them by forcing errors and dictating the terms of the duel in your favor!
