Defensive Zone Breakout: Weak-Side Winger Push image
As the blue team regains possession, F3 pushes an opposing D behind the blue line to create a 4v4 in the defensive zone. This provides more space for the remaining players to generate an exit. Alternatively, F3 may drive between opposing Ds to force both into the neutral zone, which produces a valuable 4v3 underneath.
