Real Madrid

This article was contributed by Miles Glynn, assistant DOC for Indiana State Youth Soccer and FC Pride coach. He,

along with Indiana coaches Pete Kapsalis, Mike Sanich, Todd Murphy and Brent Paulson had the unique experience

of observing Real Madrid train at the National Federation’s Training Center in suburban Madrid. The players took

the ﬁeld at 11:00am minus Raul, Salgado and Casillas, who each had International duty the night before. Otherwise,

the squad was intact with Zidane, Beckham and Roberto Carlos leading the array of world class stars. Manager Carlos

Quiroz led the session. SESSION PROVIDED BY

Warm-Up

The players loosen up by dribbling inside the center circle. Each

player:

• Rolls the ball on the ground with alternating hands, standing

upright and bending over with each roll

• Tosses the ball over their head from behind their backs and

catches it in front while on a jog

• Lifts the ball off the ground in different ways and controls it

with various surfaces, all while moving

• Progresses to a short game of marbles in which they tried to

knock each other’s ball out of the circle by using their own

ball

Continuation

Players stand around the center circle with a ball each, the

middle players checked to the servers, and:

• Play a one-touch pass on the ground back from the server,

while performing high knees and butt kicks in between checks

to the ball

• Control tossed balls and returning it to the server in two

touches

• Check toward, then allow the ball to run between their legs,

then turn to control it quickly before returning the pass

• Check to a ball which is tossed over their head, then return it

Before receiving a tossed ball, the players look over their

shoulder to see their surroundings before dealing with the ball.

1v1

In pairs, and in open space, one player shields to keep possession

for a time determined by the coach. They then do some

dribbling, performing moves to reach the other side of their

defender and switch roles with a change of possession. During

this time the coach hands out pinnies so that teams are ready for

the rest of the session.

Dynamic Stretching

With the balls set aside, all the players are positioned

around the outside of the center circle facing outward. On

the coach’s command, they sprint away from the circle for

15-20 yards and perform a dynamic stretch at their own

pace on their way back to the circle. This is repeated for

several minutes.

Diagram 21

First Activity

Play 1 v 1 with the goalkeeper to goal. Starting wide out,

and about 35-yards from goal, the player receives a ‘give-

and-go’ from Coach Quiroz and proceeds toward the goal

to ﬁnish. The skill level is high and they usually make

Sanchez, Spain’s No.2 goalkeeper, look foolish with their

pace and placement.

Diagram 22

Progression

After several minutes, a pressuring defender is added who

starts about eight yards behind. In goal now stood two

goalkeepers, one about 6-8 yards from his goal line, and

one just a couple of yards off the line. A couple of times

Zidane holds the ball up just so he could beat all three

players. If the player beats the ﬁrst goalkeeper, he then

has to shoot to beat the second goalkeeper.

Second Activity

Play 5 v 5 to goals set on the 18-yard lines. The focus

is on possessing the ball in the defensive or middle third

and releasing a player on the far weak side of the area

(switching play). This is Beckham’s forte and he sends

ball after ball, ﬂoated, driven and skimming diagonally

into the runners’ path with precision. Coach Quiroz

stops play several times to highlight the necessity to get

numbers around the ball and to clear space for the weak

side run to be made.

Final Activity

Diagram 24

Play 5 v 5 to goal with the goals on the goal line and just

outside the top of the “D”. Because the goals are just 25

yards apart, the players enjoy a lively game in which they

are always well within shooting range. Beckham and

Zidane are on opposing sides and are the natural catalysts

in the game, with Zidane again ﬁnding impossible angles

and working through tight spaces, and Beckham sending

scorching shots into the upper 90’s, seemingly at will.

The game begins with unlimited touches and ends with a

one-touch restriction.

To solve the problem of congestion in the middle of such a conﬁned space, Quiroz makes three points:

1) He asks the players to receive the ball in a position that allows them to lay one-touch passes to various options.

2) He asks that the ball is driven across the face of the goal.

3) He asks that the ball is played early toward the attacking end line and is then cut back for attacking runs.

Warm Down

The players jog for several minutes and then perform a static stretching routine in unison to end the session.
