Soccer Give and Go

The give-and-go in soccer is used to get around an individual defender.

The “give-and-go” is the most basic passing combination in soccer, involving two teammates and two passes to get around, or “beat,” a single defender. In general, the player with the ball dribbles at the defender straight on, passes to a teammate who has come toward the defender at a right angle, sprints around the defender, and then immediately receives a return pass from his teammate. This passing combination is also known as a “wall pass,”
