Low Block Counter-Attack Exit

Where this template fits

A counter-attacking template for showing the defensive block, the ball-winning moment, the first outlet pass, and the forward runs that turn recovery into a transition attack.

• Teams preparing to defend compactly and counter with speed.
• Analysts explaining how defensive spacing creates the first outlet.
• Coaches who need a simple transition picture for players.

Board setup

• Place the low block first with two clear horizontal lines and the ball near the pressure zone.
• Mark the regain point and the first outlet player with a highlight.
• Keep forward runs in a separate color from recovery or support runs.

Key points

• Compact distances before the regain.
• The first outlet player and body shape after winning the ball.
• Forward runs that stretch the opponent before they can counter-press.
• Support underneath the break in case the direct pass is blocked.

How to build it in the editor

1. 1. Draw the compact block and opponent possession before the ball is won.
2. 2. Duplicate the frame and mark the regain point with the nearest outlet.
3. 3. Move the forward runners into the space behind the opponent line.
4. 4. Finish with the counter-attack lane and the support option underneath the ball.

Common mistakes to avoid

• Starting with the counter-attack run before the defensive block has been explained.
• Showing only the runner and ignoring the first outlet who makes the counter possible.
• Drawing too many recovery arrows when the transition attack should be the main focus.

Export notes

• Use a short WebM for the transition moment and a still for the compact starting block.
• If exporting a single image, number the regain, outlet, and run so the sequence is still readable.
