Fresh off Barcelona’s win against Real Madrid, this Modern Soccer Coach breakdown takes a detailed look at three possession exercises used by Hansi Flick that consistently draw pressure, break lines, and replicate match-day demands.

In this video, Gary Curneen walks through three different possession games used at Barcelona, highlighting how goalkeepers, neutrals, and positional constraints are used to solve pressing problems at high tempo. While the games look simple on paper, the structure, spacing, and transitions make them highly realistic and directly transferable to training environments.

All three exercises are broken down with clear context, and you can watch the original Barcelona clips plus access free dimensions and diagrams in the linked article on modernsoccercoach.com.

If you enjoy these session ideas, we’ve just released the Modern Soccer Coach Youth Methodology package, including attacking, defending, 1v1–2v2, and build-up exercises. Insider members also receive this content as part of their membership, along with last week’s webinar on tactical flexibility.
