 1. Futsal Defensive System

Introduction: Futsal Defensive System

This DEF post presents all the elements of a Futsal defensive system: individual marking,
zonal marking, mixed marking, defensive lines and Futsal defensive systems.
What is the objective of the defensive system in Futsal?

A good defensive system in Futsal is one that marks the opposing team well. The objective
of marking in Futsal is to prevent the opponent from making successful offensive plays, but
without committing too many fouls. The Futsal rule penalizes excessive fouls with a direct
free kick, so marking must be efficient without being excessively aggressive.

Fouls and Defensive System of Futsal

Having a good defensive system is the best way to avoid excessive fouls in a Futsal game.
If athletes know their roles and defensive positions well, marking will be much more a
matter of tactics than aggression, and this will avoid an excessive number of fouls.

Physical Preparation and Defensive System of Futsal

With the development of physical preparation, marking in Futsal has also evolved a lot, as
currently Futsal athletes manage to occupy spaces more efficiently, they are also more
resistant and better able to accompany the offensive movement of their opponents.

Elements of the Futsal Defensive System

The defensive system of Futsal is made up of the types of marking (how the player marks),
and the defensive lines or defensive variations (where the player marks). A Futsal team can
score individually, in zones or in a mixed manner.

Individual Defense in Futsal

Individual Defense in Futsal is the popular “everyone, marks one”, that is, each player will
be responsible for marking a specific opposing player from the opposing team, wherever
they move on the field.

The positive points of Individual Defense are:

 makes long-range shots difficult;

 reduces the passing option;

 forces the adversary's error;

 greater physical exhaustion of the opponents due to the need for greater movement
to get out of the marking;

 reduces the amount of time the opponent has possession of the ball;

 It reduces the opponent's reaction time to think about what move to make.
Negative points of Individual Defense:

 It causes great physical exhaustion for the defenders to keep up with the movement
of the attackers;

 leaves the middle of the court open, facilitating shots and infiltrations;

 The opposing team may be at a numerical advantage when they get a dribble,
making recovery and coverage difficult.

Zone Defense in Futsal

In zonal marking in Futsal, each defender is responsible for marking a section of the field;
the opposing player who occupies that section is the one who will be marked. In zone
marking, the defender must not accompany the opponent across the entire field, only
accompany the opponents who enter his marking zone. It is a marking used when the
opposing team has a good movement with exchange of passes or when the team is ahead on
the scoreboard. A lot of training is required to perform good zone marking.

Positive points of the Zonal Defense:

 facilitates coverage and recovery in the case of dribbling or dribbling;

 less physical strain on defenders;

 provides good counterattack possibilities;

 makes infiltrations difficult and closes the middle of the field well.

Negative points of the Zone Defense:

 enables long-distance shots;

 increases the opposing team's ball possession time;

 can partially cover the goalkeeper's vision.

Mixed Defense in Futsal

The Mixed Defense is one that uses zone marking combined with individual marking.
Basically, this marking involves marking an opponent individually, while the other players
are marked by zone.

3×1 or Rhombus Defensive System

The 3×1 or diamond defensive system is the marking used against teams that use the 3×1 or
3×2 tactical system. The wings must "swing" or "go back and forth" like traditional football
full-backs and the pivot must close the middle, preventing the ball from being thrown to the
opposing pivot. If this happens, the latter must again “sandwich” the opponent, doubling
the marking along with the closing of his team. The closer, in addition to being concerned
about the opposing pivot, needs to be attentive to the coverage of the other players, since he
is the last man in the defense (SAAD, 2005).

2×2 or Square Defensive System

The 2×2 or Square defensive system is used against teams that play with a 2×2 or 4×0
tactical system. Two players remain positioned further forward and maintain their
positions, only dealing with opponents who “enter” their zone. In turn, the two players who
are furthest back will mark the two most advanced players of the opposing team.

Defensive Lines and Defensive System in Futsal

Futsal defensive lines are associated with the idea of space: the more advanced the
defensive line, the less space is left for the opposing team to play.
First Line of Defense

The first defensive line or line 1, is the one made in the opponent's defensive area, close to
the opposing goal, the so-called marking under pressure, with the objective of suffocating
the opposing team's ball exit. In this way, marking on the first defensive line is a type of
marking that leaves little space for the opponent to get out of the game.

Second Defensive Line

The second defensive line in Futsal or line 2 is medium pressure marking. In this defensive
position, the goalkeeper has a little more space to get the ball out. However, once the ball is
controlled by an opposing player, the team advances towards the first line of defense,
increasing the pressure on marking.

The third defensive line in Futsal or line 3 is the midfield marking, because in this
defensive position the team positions itself from the middle of the field, leaving the
opponents unmarked in their defensive area, but when the opponents enter the attack zone,
they suffer strong marking. The objective of this defensive positioning is to avoid
infiltrations, reach the middle of the field and play counterattacks.

Fourth Defensive Line

The fourth defensive line in Futsal or line 4 is a type of defensive positioning that involves
being quite far back on the field, carried out near the 10-meter line in the defense area. In
this system the opposing team will have plenty of space to keep the ball, but they will not
have space for infiltrations or walls. The aim of this defensive positioning is also the
counterattack game.

2. OFFENSIVE SYSTEMS IN FUTSAL

OFFENSIVE FOOTBALL TACTICS

Offensive futsal tactics are the way a futsal team positions itself on the field with the ball to
create attacking plays.

HOW TO CHOOSE AN OFFENSIVE SYSTEM?

The choice of offensive system for a futsal team should occur based on the characteristics
of the players that make up the team. If you are a futsal coach, do not try to impose a
tactical scheme on your team without taking into account the characteristics of your
players.

Before choosing your offensive system, answer the following questions:

 Who are you playing against?

 What are the characteristics of your team's players?
 What is the fitness level of your team's players?
Understand! When the team is attacking, tactical organization is also important, however,
due to the large movement to occupy space, there should not be a rigidity in the positioning
of the players in the offensive movement.
Next, we will analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the main offensive futsal
systems.

3×1 Offensive System of Football

This is one of the most common formations in futsal, providing a balance between defense
and attack. It has a player dedicated to attack (the Pivot), while there is also a player
dedicated to defense (the Closing). There are also two Wings, the Right Wing and the Left
Wing, who must support both defense and attack.

Advantages of the 3×1 Futsal system:

 There is clearly a player who specializes in defense and a player who specializes in
attack.
 The team is more compact both in defense and attack.
Disadvantages of the 3×1 system in Futsal

 If both wings focus too much on attack, this will leave the defense very exposed and
the Lock will have a lot of work to do.
 You can also overload the Pivot, if the Wings have offensive difficulties.
2×2 or Square Futsal Offensive System

The 2×2 Futsal Tactical System, also known as “Square”, basically divides the four field
players into the two main areas of responsibility: defense and attack. It is a simple system
that can help develop good pairs of defenders and attackers.

Although it is recommended that two players be further forward (on attack) and two further
back (on defense), these roles should be very flexible, as the attackers should help the
defense and vice versa. Additionally, most teams attack and defend with at least three
players.

Advantages of the 2×2 System in Futsal

 Great System for Beginners.

  Provides balance between attack and defense.
 Ensures that the defense and attack have at least one player at all times during the
game.
Disadvantages of the 2×2 System in Futsal

 Restricts player movement.

 Can be defensively weak if defenders join the attack and attackers are unwilling to
perform defensive duties
 If the team is poorly coached or does not communicate well on the court, there can
be confusion about which attacker should support the defense and which defender
should support the attack.
Futsal tactical system 4×0 system

The 4×0 futsal tactical system is used by high-level teams, such as professional teams. The
idea is that all 4 players move at the same time, promoting a movement that allows for
many options for triangulation, occupation of spaces and attack opportunities.
Advantages of the 4×0 System in Futsal

 Promotes more dynamic team movement.

 Always allow triangulation options
 Makes it difficult for the opposing team to defend due to the large movement
 Physically he can wear down the defending team
 The ball moves extremely fast
 Great option to maintain possession of the ball.
 It facilitates the occupation of space.
 The best way to get out of the mark under pressure
 The opposing team will have a lot of work on defense
Disadvantages of the 4×0 Futsal System

 Everyone on the court MUST understand the system, otherwise it won't work!
 Players must be extremely well conditioned physically
 If players focus too much on movement, the team is predictable and non-offensive.
 Players must be technically good
 Players must be agile
 It causes a lot of physical exhaustion.
3×2 Offensive System of Futsal

The 3×2 Futsal tactical system occurs when the goalkeeper (goalkeeper player) leaves his
area to participate in his team's attacking movements. Usually the goalkeeper is replaced by
a field player, to make this system more offensively efficient. With this formation, players
do not change positions very often. They try to tire out the defenders by passing the ball
quickly using all corners of the playing field.
DETAIL: In the image above, the Goalkeeper (in yellow) is positioned in the attack field,
this is because the Futsal Rule restricts the goalkeeper's possession of the ball in the defense
field, he cannot receive the ball more than once and cannot keep it for more than 4 seconds
(being in the defense field).

«In this formation it is important that the players have a lot of precision in their passes and
wait for a very clear opportunity to shoot at the goal, because a hasty shot or an incorrect
pass can be fatal, since the goalkeeper will be outside his goal.»

Advantages of the 3×2 Futsal System

 A numerical advantage is created when attacking

 Allows the creation of clear finishing opportunities
Disadvantages of the 3×2 Futsal System

 There is a high risk of conceding a counter-attack goal, as the goalkeeper is outside

the goal in this system.
 The team can play with a goalkeeper who is not specialized in defense.
 3. Rotation in futsal

This rotation is used mainly in the back of the court, to study the opposing team a little, and
in this way look for vulnerable points in their defense.
We must always have one player on the team who is going to give instructions on the field
of play, and who will also see when is the right time to make this type of move. (this is seen
in practice, normally it is the team captain).
We must note that the exercise should initially be performed without marks, for better
understanding, then adding marks so that it is performed with more pressure.

Table 1
The rotation is carried out in the following way:
Taking the ball in defense, player C (Closer),
plays towards player LD (right back) and goes
out to take a more advanced position on the
field, dragging his marker with him. While the
PI player (Pivot) moves to the opposite side
where the pass was given.
- Legend -

Table 2
Continuing with the rotation we can see that the
LD takes the ball to midfield, passes the ball to
LI, and goes out to look for his position up front
on the field, at the same time. PI continues with
his transfer to the opposite side from where the
ball is going, in the same way C who had
previously gone on the attack, returns to LD's
side to cover him and receive again in the next
movement.
The ball remains in LI's possession at this point.
Table 3
In the third case we can already see that the
rotation is already being completed and it always
continues in the same way, in this case LI moves
to half court, passes the ball to C, and goes out to
look for more advanced positions, PI continues
with his movement trying to get free, and LD
returns through the other side to cover LI's
position,
the ball remains in C's possession and in this way
we are as at the beginning in box 1, The
movement with the ball is
always between Player C, LI and LD, that's why
it's called Rotation of Three, and the maneuver is
repeated until we see that one of our players is in
a good position, it's always better if you can play
with PI (pivot) because when receiving with his
back turned, he can enable the player who comes
from the front to shoot, that's why PI always
goes to the opposite side where the first pass is
made, looking for the diagonal of the player who
receives. But we will see this later in attacking
plays.

2.2 - ROTATION OF FOUR

This type of rotation is more complete and in the same way also generates greater physical
wear and tear. While previously only three players participated, in this case the Pivot enters
the rotation, in a much more active way than before.
In this case, the rotation is not in the form of an eight, but rather in two circles formed by
two players and two players, without crossing at any time.

Table 1
In this rotation, as we can see in box 1, the
Goalkeeper comes out with C, he receives and
plays with LI, coming out and through the
middle of the field to then go to look for the LD
position, while LD goes down his side to cover
the C position and prepares to receive from LI.
PI moves in its zone and tries to get free.

Table 2
 In this case, as it is exactly the same as the
previous one but the players are reversed, LI,
who had received the ball from C, passes it to
LD and, passing through midfield, takes the
position of PI, who is going down his side to
cover him, while C tries to get free.

Table 3
In this case we see how they continue rotating in
the same way. LD, who had received the ball
from LI, touches PI, who arrives covering the
bottom. LD dives through the center to take the
position of C, who is coming down the side to
cover it. And this way you can continue
indefinitely, from these actions the attack task
begins which we will explain later.

4. INDOOR FOOTBALL IN COLOMBIA

Indoor football, Note 1 Note 2 played according to the official indoor football rules of the
World Futsal Association (AMF), is the second national sport of Colombia. It has reached
great maturity in terms of organization, popularity, game systems and sports figures. It is
the collective discipline that has achieved the greatest international success and the one that
is most widely practiced.

Scene from the game corresponding to group A of the II Women's World Futsal
Championship Colombia 2013, played in Barrancabermeja on November 7. The home team
defeated the Canadian team 16-0.
Colombia is the only country that, to date, has won all the competitions organized by the
AMF (formerly the International Indoor Football Federation, FIFUSA), Panafutsal and
CSFS in the senior men's category. At the youth level, he won the title of the first U-17
World Championship in 2016.2 His only pending subject in the men's branch is the U-20
World Cup, in which he obtained third place in the first edition in 2016. The women's team
has won the world title once (2013) and is the current South American champion.
These achievements, combined with the long history of this sport in the country, have made
Colombia a world power in this discipline. The excellent results are due to the outstanding
management of the Colombian Indoor Soccer Federation (Fecolfutsalón) since, since 2009,
the country has had its own professional competitions for men and women (two of the most
competitive on the continent).

Organization
The Colombian Indoor Football Federation (Fecolfutsalón) is the entity that governs and
promotes indoor football in Colombia. It was founded on November 8, 1974. It is
recognized by the Colombian Olympic Committee. It also has the official endorsement of
Coldeportes through Resolution 01619 of September 3, 1976.3

After its founding, it joined the South American Futsal Confederation. It is also a founding
member of the Pan American Futsal Confederation and the World Futsal Association.
Later, it joined CONCACFUTSAL,4 an entity that promotes sport in North, Central
America and the Caribbean.

The federation is in charge of the Colombian national team in both the men's and women's
categories. It is also responsible, through the National Indoor Soccer Division, for
organizing professional tournaments in the discipline for men and women.

History of indoor soccer in Colombia

Indoor soccer was developed in Colombia thanks to Mr. Jaime Arroyave (nicknamed "El
Pantalonudo") after a trip he made to Brazil in the 60s, observing from the air some small
soccer fields, which caught his attention and awakened his curiosity about this sport
discipline. Arroyave took on the development of futsal in Colombia, dedicating himself to
extending it since 1966, when he introduced it to the country, and later founding the
Colombian Indoor Soccer Federation in 1974, which he presided over from its creation
until the last year of the 20th century.

In 1967, the Social Security Institute in the city of Bogotá gave futsal its final boost by
organizing an event with the participation of 597 teams, an unimaginable record for the
time, which also marked the subsequent beginning of the Inter-Neighborhood
Championship in Bogotá, sponsored by the newspaper El Tiempo and Pony Malta, and
which served to create the first league in Colombia on August 20, 1973: the Bogotá
League.

Around 1983, the first regulation was published in Spanish, based on some work already
prepared and the translation made from Portuguese by engineer Albano Ariza.

In its early days, the sport was rejected by sectors linked to field football, where indoor
football was labelled as "anti-football". However, it has the recognition of Colombian
sports bodies, appearing in the National Games, and is the most widely practiced sport in
the country, since it can be practiced anywhere and on any terrain.

Tournaments
Domestic competitions
At the end of the 1980s, the national 1000 Cities tournament was launched, which brought
the sport to the entire country and was held at an amateur level. It has remained active until
today.

In 1993, the first semi-professional indoor soccer tournament was held in Bogotá: the
Doria/Promasa Cup, which pitted the best-structured teams in the country's capital against
each other.

At the end of the 20th century, an attempt was made at professionalization in the
department of Santander, where a 6-team tournament was held sponsored by the regional
newspaper Vanguardia Liberal, of which only 4 editions could be held (from 1996 to 1999).
The tournament's attraction was the registration of one Colombian national team player per
team (in those years, the base of the national team was from that region).

In 2009, the federation achieved definitive professionalization with a successful national

men's tournament, led by former coach and current leader Manuel Sánchez Aguirre, current
president of the federation. The following year, it expanded to the women's category.

International championships organized by Colombia

Fecolfutsalon has organized several international events. At the national team level, it
hosted the Pan American Championships in 1990 and 1996. In 2011, it organized the 2011
Microfootball World Cup. In 2013, it hosted the Futsal Tournament of the 2013 World
Games,5 where the discipline was incorporated as an exhibition sport. In November of that
year, Colombia also hosted the second Women's Microfootball World Cup.6 In 2014, it
organized the South American Men's Championship and the following year, its equivalent
in the women's branch, repeating the organization in 2017.

At club level, since 2014, the continental tournament called Copa de las Américas has been
organized in Colombia, where the best from the North Zone and the South Zone of South
America compete. The country hosted the qualifying round for the Northern Zone for two
years. In 2016 and 2017, the tournament was not played in the Northern Zone; the places to
play in the Copa de las Américas were taken by the Champion and Runner-up of the
Colombian professional tournament.

National team
Main article: Colombia national futsal team
Colombia had its first significant international participation in the 1977 South American
Championship, where it finished third. At that time it was directed by Luis Augusto
García.7 In 1982, it participated in the I FIFUSA World Cup in Brazil, under the technical
direction of Gonzalo Gusmán.8 In this tournament, the Colombian team reached the
semifinals by beating Japan 5-0 and Holland 5-2, and then fell in the dispute for third place
with Uruguay.9

The Colombian team again achieved fourth place in the 1984 Pan American Games in
Brazil.10 It did not participate in the 1985 World Cup in Spain and the 1988 World Cup in
Australia.

In the 1990s, Colombia won its first continental titles. In 1990, they won the III Pan
American Championship held in Santa Fe de Bogotá undefeated, defeating Paraguay,
Venezuela and Bolivia in the final round, with Jaime Azza as the tournament's top scorer
and led by Diego Morales (promoter of FIFA indoor football in Colombia). The player base
of this contest allowed them to revalidate the title in 1993 against Bolivia in La Paz.11 The
following year, the Colombian team was runner-up in the World Cup in Argentina 1994,
losing the final to the local team.12 13 In the 2000 World Cup in Bolivia, they won their
first world title by beating the host team on penalties, consecrating the then youth Jhon
Pinilla as top scorer.14 In this decade, their greatest reference was Giovanny Hernández,
considered until his retirement the best player in the world in the specialty.
In the 2000s, despite not being able to repeat the triumphs achieved in the previous decade
(partly due to the crisis experienced in the sport due to the conflict that it still has with
FIFA over the rights to the sport, which led to the disappearance of FIFUSA and the
creation of the AMF), it managed to finish second in the 2003 Paraguay World Cup and
third in Argentina 2007.

In 2011, Colombia won the title for the second time, at the 10th World Indoor Soccer
Championship, beating Paraguay, the then defending champion, by 8-2. 151617 Two years
later, Colombia won another important title: the Exhibition Tournament at the 2013 World
Games. In 2014 he won his first South American title.18 In 2015 he won his third world
title in Belarus (the second in a row). In 2016, Colombia, in its U-17 youth edition, won its
first youth title in the first edition of this, by winning a final quadrangular.

The women's team, for its part, won the title of the II World Championship in 2013, which
it hosted, defeating the Venezuelan team in the final, whom they also defeated to win the
South American title in 2017.
