In this lesson you’ll learn how to turn a high-press into a drive to the goal. You begin with two explosive strokes outside to pull the defender away. As they step across in front of you, you immediately change direction, place your hand on their lower back to feel their position, press with your legs, and drive past them toward the goal.

We focus on reading the defender’s movement, using your legs to create power, and staying balanced so you don’t get stopped or turned. After this lesson, you’ll know how to punish any defender who overplays the press by beating them on the drive.
