GOALKEEPER TRAINING - Spreads & Reaction Saves 

Cheers mate, 1 v 1’s are very situational so sometimes you’ll be able to come out and smother, others you’ll have to get into shape and block/spread, and sometimes you’ll have to stand and react - it all depends on how close you are to the ball and how much control the striker has. In this particular drill we are working strictly on getting into those blocking/spread shapes. I think it’s always beneficial to work on all 3 aspects of 1 to 1’s (smothering, blocking/spreading, stand and react)
