A counter-attack is a quick break initiated after winning possession, usually from a deep and compact defensive setup, to overcome the opponent's disorganized defense.
Why are Counter-Attacks Important?
Counter-attacking is a highly effective tactic for creating scoring opportunities, especially against possession-based teams that play with a high line and commit many players forward. It exploits moments of disorganization and the opponent's lack of defensive cover. A successful counter requires precise transition play, quick decision-making, and often a few, but well-aimed, passes.
