Coaching Points
- Block out the noise — narrow your focus to the target corner only
- Execute your routine exactly as in practice, pressure changes nothing
- Don't look at the defenders; fix your gaze on the goal corner
- Keep your shoulders square and arm action compact under tight pressure
- Breathe out before the throw — a tight chest produces a tight throw
