Knee Cut Pass Defense to Omoplata Attempt to Monoplata Submission (Advanced)

Professor Lucas Lepri demonstrates how to defend from a knee cut pass attempt and transitions to the Monoplata submission. The opponent tries to knee cut pass Lucas and Lucas defends the pass by going to the reverse de la riva and then uses the knee shield. Lucas then hooks the opponent ankle with his own on the same side he has the knee shield. He pushes the opponent’s leg back making the opponent post on the mat. Lucas takes advantage of this and tries to go for the omoplata submission. The opponent defends the omoplata by bringing Lucas to the other side. Lucas then unlocks the omoplata and brings one leg over the opponent so he can then lock his feet together to get the monoplata submission.
