Containment of Dynamic

This is a relatively new method to defend an attacking team – called Dynamikdeckung in German. The defending team intends to cover obvious running and passing paths near the ball, so that the attacking team cannot push forward immediately. The build-up play remains statically. The defending team then moves up, shuts down every option bit by bit and usually goes for a turnover. While the team in possession is not able to accelerate, the pressure grows on the ball carrier.
