Sa inisye nan kòmansman faz defann lan. D1 ki pi pre boul la ak sa imedyatman presyon foutbòl la reta nenpòt tantativ atak vann san preskripsyon. Tout jwè yo dèyè D1 gout nan mwatye pwòp yo (sa vle di D2, D3, D4, D5) si yo pa deja nan mwatye pwòp yo. Jan yo montre nan dyagram 2.

This initiates the start of the defending phase. D1 is closest to the ball and so immediately pressures the football to delay any counter attack attempt. All the players behind D1 drop into their own half (i.e. D2,D3,D4,D5) if they are not already in their own half. As shown in diagram 2.
