Soccer & Futsal: Double 2v1 game

This is an exercise to help player improve in 2v1 scenarios, including when the opposing team has a player covering through balls. Players have to quickly decide if pass the ball or take space.
Rules: each team attacks for a certain amount of time (for example 2 minutes). The team that scores the most wins. Each grid has one defender. Defenders can't track an opponent back once they leave their grid. At the end of the action, defender from 1 grid leaves, defender from 2 grid goes to the first grid, and the first defender in line of the pitch goes defend the second grid. Extra rules: maximum of 1 pass per grid. Coaching points: pick between a "diagonal ball" (pass to the front foot of teammate, with first touch going forward), or fake a pass and go yourself. Commit the defender but don't be too late. Flick (self or pass) when necessary to avoid interception. Comments: 1-2 or diagonal runs (for parallel passes) are options, but usually not the most quick and effective in this scenario.
