If you're struggling to create danger from corners, I recommend spending time in training replicating this #BCFC routine.
🔵Whipped far post ball
🔵Blindside block on the GK - with no contact
🔵So hard to defend under your own crossbar
Simple, but dangerous.
#EFL #SetPieces
Monza have conceded nine set piece goals in ten #SerieA games.
The core reason is simple: full zonal marking.
No accountability, no responsibility, no desire to impact the situation.
37% of the goals they've conceded could have been avoided...

Anyone for a goal from a far post overload at a corner!?
Rinse and repeat..,

Lincoln were outstanding from #setpieces last season, scoring 30 goals.
They've notched five in 12 this term, too.
Its empowering their players with detail that's the key for the #Imps.
How do you isolate your 6ft 2in striker for a free header?

Middlesbrough set piece goals:
🔴 2025/26 - 14 in 46
🔴 2026/27 - 7 in 12
As ever, the improvement is in the detail - specifically blocking and screening, which is so important to set play success.
Could it be the difference that gets the #Boro promoted?

Wigan made sure Leicester weren’t going to score at the near post from this corner.
Unfortunately they forgot about the back post, though 😬

Why haven't Arsenal scored from a corner yet?
They've abandoned their meta: the far post ball.
🔼 Short +8.7%
🔼 Near Space +7.8%
🔽 Far Space -6.9%
Far post balls are harder to defend. Near post balls negate Gabriel's aerial strength 👇

Love this close-up angle of Brighton's 'sheep pen' corner goal against Palace.
The 'spin to the far space' routine is nothing new, but it's perfectly done by #BHAFC.
They keep the distance that Vuskovic has to travel short and traffic-free - key to its success.

N.E.C Nijmegen are respected for their fluid football, but they've taken the time to learn the key details of strong #setpieces too.
Here's how they create separation from a man marker using box traffic and 'passive' blocks.
Small detail, big result... an injury time equaliser!

The NFL has a Block Win Rate stat for measuring blocking success on offence.
Maybe it's time #football had its own block success stat at #setpieces?
There's a subtle art to the block - when coordinating set plays, ask yourself who, where, when and why?
How to Isolate a Single Zonal Marker
I've seen many #EFL and National League clubs defend corners with a single zonal marker.
It can work... until they get blocked off or surrounded by traffic.
#PAFC pull off the coordinated block perfectly 👇

Salford City set piece goals:
🟠 2025/26 - 16
🟠 2026/27 - 5 in 8 games
I've seen no major innovation, just the basics done right - see Oluwo's 'bump and run' against Oldham.
This is a great way to get in behind the defensive line at wide free kicks...

You can improve your #setpieces by learning about biomechanics.
You don't need to be at doctorate level, just understand some universal truths:
✅ Forward momentum, velocity, kinetic energy = jumping height
❌ Flat footed, stood on heels = less jumping height

Try it yourself or with your players at training.
You'll be amazed at how much higher you can jump with forward motion, rather than from a standing position.
So stark is the difference that height differences of several inches can be negated.

14 #MLS games this weekend... and nine of them had at least one set piece goal.
This was from Philadelphia Union.
🔴 Deception
🔴 Late movement to change the picture
Football has programmed us to shoot from 20-yards... but why take the low probability option?
