    Phase Description

    Attacking Play

    Utilizes width from wing-backs and inside forwards, exploring both central and wide areas. Quick movement and high tempo to create goal-scoring opportunities.

    Defensive Transition

    Focuses on immediate pressure through counter-pressing and preventing quick transitions by the opposition.

    Main Focus

    Maintaining possession while looking to exploit spaces with quick, incisive passing.

    Key Strengths

    Fluidity in Attack

    The use of inside forwards with an advanced striker allows for versatile attacking patterns.

    High Pressing Game

    Effective press can disrupt opponent's buildup play.

    Strong Build-Up Play

    Ball-Playing Defenders help transition from defense to attack smoothly.

    Conflicting Directions

    High Defensive Line vs. Long Balls

    Teams can exploit the space left behind the defense with long balls.

    Pressing vs. Counter-attacks

    Aggressive pressing can lead to counter-attacks if the press is bypassed.

    RGA's Role in Defense

    Regista's advanced positioning may leave the defense exposed.

    Tactical Suggestions

    Consider a Drop in Defensive Line

    Lowering the defensive line can mitigate risks from pacey attackers.

    Adjust DM Role

    Consider changing Regista to a more defensive-minded role to provide additional cover.

    Exploit Flanks More Effectively

    Promote wing-backs more frequently into advanced positions to create space for inside forwards.
