TO DO IN AN ATTACK TRIANGULAR MOVEMENT

OF GREAT IMPORTANCE

Unlike the outside, the inside forward has a colleague on either side, and must combine with them both. His combination with his wing will consist in taking part in the triangular movement; in giving long diagonal passes to his wing, and occasional straight (through) passes, to gather which the wing will have to run inwards. This may mean that he and the inside will have to change places, which is always a sound tactical move, if carried out successfully.
