Obj: Opponent-specific set-piece rehearsal — their routines replicated, our answers drilled: the dead-ball chapter of the scout brought to grass (8.6's set-piece line; E-30's dead-ball sibling). Field: Both boxes + dead-ball spots. Equip: Goals, balls, bibs, scout cards. Org: The mirror unit stages the opponent's catalogued set pieces (their corner routines with the personnel mirrored — "you're their #5: near-post every time"; their free-kick tendencies; their long-throw if armed — H-08's regional reality; their penalty takers for the GKs, I-23). Our units rehearse the answers: H-03's hybrid tuned to THEIR routines (marks assigned to their actual threats by name and number), H-07's wall vs. their taker's pattern, the counter-outlets tuned to their rest-defense gaps (every defended set piece is a counter opportunity scouted in advance — F-12's heist at dead balls). Attacking twin: OUR routines chosen against their known defensive setup (zonal? B beats zones; man? A's train breaks marks — H-02's counter-adjustment made specific). CP: (1) Set pieces are the scout's highest-yield page (a third of youth goals — the twenty minutes here buy more than any twenty elsewhere); (2) marks are NAMES Saturday (walk the lineup card — "who's your man?" answered by everyone); (3) the mirror's honesty rule (E-30's inherited law — replicate their timing, not our convenience). Prog: Full dead-ball dress rehearsal (every restart type in sequence at match speed); post-match verification (did their routines match the card? — 8.5's loop, dead-ball edition). Reg: Their two most-used routines only. Mist: P: rehearsed marks dissolving at the first Saturday corner (the lineup-card walk fixes accountability); C: generic set-piece training the week a scouted opponent arrives (specificity is sitting there, free). Time: 20 min, match-week Thursdays. Out: Their set pieces pre-defended by name; ours pre-chosen by their setup; dead-ball goals swinging our way in scouted matches. Var: Tournament mode (multi-opponent cards condensed — the weekend's three likely opponents' loudest routine each). Diag: Their corner routine drawn with mirrored personnel numbered, our hybrid's marks assigned by name, counter-outlet arrows at their scouted rest-defense gap, attacking twin inset choosing our routine vs. their zonal setup.
