Crossing & finishing

Attacking
This session is aimed at giving attacking players plenty of opportunities to make front post and back post runs and finish with a side-footed shot from the edge of the six-yard box. It gives attackers the chance to work in pairs and rehearse their movement to receive the ball, and it also helps them perfect the art of making an angle when they approach the ball and finish with the inside of the foot.

Biography

Jonathan Woodgate was most recently manager of EFL Championship side, Middlesbrough, his hometown club. During a long playing career, he won eight England caps and played as a defender for Leeds United, Newcastle United, Real Madrid and Stoke City. He also scored the winning goal for Tottenham in the 2008 League Cup Final and enjoyed two spells playing for Boro before hanging up his boots in 2016. After a brief spell as an international scout for Liverpool, he joined Middlesbrough’s coaching staff in 2017 and had two stints as an assistant coach with the first team and a period working for the club’s academy with the U18s. He was ultimately appointed Middlesbrough manager in the summer of 2019 and was voted Championship Manager of the Month for the first time in December 2019.
