De la Riva with Lasso Control to Omoplata Attempt to X Guard Sweep Variation (Advanced)

Professor Lucas Lepri teaches how to sweep the opponent, after attempting an omoplata using the de la riva with lasso control. Lucas starts in the de la riva and starts pulling the lapel out. He goes for the lasso position and turns himself to the side so he can over hook the opponent’s leg. Lucas now feeds the lapel to his other hand and then grips the same side sleeve. He uses this position to try and get the omoplata but the opponent defends by posturing up. Lucas immediately drops his legs and transitions to the x guard, where he pulls the opponent and sweeps him over. From here, Lucas is in a position where he can start to pass.
