Speed counterattack (handball)
The tempo counter- attack describes an attacking tactic in handball in which one tries to counter- attack the opposing team after their unsuccessful attack . Similarly, the " Fast Center " is also a counterattack, but in connection with a throw-off after a goal by the opponent.
Equivalent terms to this are the counterattack or the fast break in basketball .
procedure
Most of the time, a counterattack starts after a bad pass or a bad throw. If the ball is in your own ranks, quickly switching from defense to attack is elementary, and an attempt is made to get in front of the goal and complete it with as few stations as possible. Often this succeeds quickly, without any play and even before the opposing defense has run back. Sometimes technical errors - such as "steps" or "twice" - lead to counter-tempo bumps. However, it is rather seldom that a player overcomes the field bouncing, usually it is bridged with passes.
Counter-attacks are usually run by the outside players and almost always completed with a jump shot .
