think the #ManchesterCity GK + 3-diamond-3 in poss where #Stones rotates to right 8 is to pull both CBs out and iso #Haaland l #UCLfinal
#Inzahgi’s ball near 8 jumps City FB so w City winger pinning WB far side, Pep wants Bastoni to come off #Haaland (Inter obv prefer 2v1) and jump out on Stones. Nice read/switch by #Dimarco to INT the wide pass, leads to a counter
IP #Inter inviting the v hi 424 so #Onana is able to chip beyond City double pivot as they make a 3v2 w #Lautaro drop and #Brozovic slip upfield, see 31’
alternatively Inter don’t play asymmetric w the WBs and keeping both CFs high = natural 3CMs vs City’s 2 pivots see 36’
ofc at 38:45 #Bernardo presses inward and forces #Onana into an out of bounds pass Image
at 42’ we see #City take up the 3151 shape in f3rd w Inter pushed back, isos for #Grealish and #Bernardo immediately
nice in game adjustment by #Inzaghi staff keeping #Hakan back w #Stones towards the end of 1h
Inter are pretty deep in 2h w #Lautaro (excellent as a wide midfielder oop) now slipped by #Stones but City unable to get shot off
on 58’ we see what might be the first #ManchesterCity overload in f3rd but it’s lacking rhythm and they are pushed back

Gone and took another look at #UCLfinal #ManchesterCityInter for my @Telexhu piece
and I wanna touch on 2 issues
1. Why #Guardiola chose the 3 🔷 3 vs his trusted
3+📦midfield ImageImageImageImage
it seemed as if the element of surprise almost backfired (in that #City seemed less prepared for this and def. to Inter's adjustments), although as #Pep admitted (and you can see below), the execution was nowhere near flawless out of the back + the collective #Inter defending ! ImageImageImage
2. How #Inzaghi surprised him via #Calhanoglu jumping + Inter's other adjustments =
-Lautaro as a wide mid defending
-both he + Dzeko pressing back on #Rodri
-recovery speed/distance closeout of @brozocrypto + #Bastoni ImageImageImageImage

Roger #Schmidt's 4231 w super distances invites Juve to press and then goes on exploiting it w low FBs (Juve WBs cant get there) playing the straight chip ball to the wide mid running down the line vs a side CB

#JuveBenfica
another pattern is to drop the great #Enzo in to the Toni Kroos space to manipulate Juve's 2nd line (see McKennie) w the low WBs and play behind for their wide mids. #Aursnes receives wide here, followed automatically by #Grimaldo rotating into the halfspace
just entirely too easy to switch and play behind Juve here w the great overloading runs of Rafa Silva + Goncalo Ramos to support Joao Mario

some #BVB thoughts:
While I'd agree w Nico #Schlotterbeck re SCF being better until 1:1
I think #Terzic had a really good gameplan vs the 442 of #Streich (w man-orientations) in particular vs SCF 2nd line (Grifo-Doan issues defending space,manipulating double 6's man-orientation)
the caveat ofc is how it was EXECUTED by BVB:
-inaccurate passes, Hazard, Dahoud, Hummels, Malen
-failures to execute immediate switch yielding 2v1s (Bellingham)
- or take some risks w passes
- slow rotations hinder optimal progress (Modeste, Hazard)
-chance for Malen after Reus carry,
-Modeste cant hold the Hazard cross,
-Reus runs at defense
-cumulative xT edge in first 15'
