Not reaching for thumbs up or anything. But your analysis is so good. I admire you for your knowledge and somewhat Atletico Madrid´s style and I really like Diego Simeone. NOTE. I am a Madrista for nearly 40 years. Respect and I hope you will get bigger (KZbin channel) and that someone (big club) will sign you. Honestly. You Are That Good.

Was my prediction. But Man City never made it that far yet... they are a bit too arrogant like Real or PSG... i think Man U or Bayern will face them to be realistic

[@TheLibero]

the only way to beat 442 of Simeone is to play 442 diamond like Zidane used to play .. the 2 strikers will hold the defenders in the back to prevent the 'step out' method they use .. while having someone like Isco who can play between the lines and create killer passes to Forwards . also the 4 midfielder narrow system will dominate the double pivot .. the only problem with this is defending on the wings but you can solve it with a hard working player like Vazquez and Asensio or Cuadrado for Juve .

[@sanjivjha3025]

Bvb played a 4-2-3-1

[@HKOVENOM]

Juve played a diamond, but Dybala couldn't do anything

[@TheLibero]

@@HKOVENOM Dybala is not in a good form lately .. and he dropped between the lines as an option from time to time not his constant position like an attacking midfielder. also Ronaldo played like a left winger not a second striker which left one defender free to step out while the other one mark Mandzukic

[@TheLibero]

@@sanjivjha3025 4231 could be another option but the attacking will be on the wings .. and could work well with Cuadrado and Costa on the wings and Dybala as attacking midfielder under Ronaldo as a lone striker.

love your work doc. my son happens to be an Atletico nut

[@PiotrFoot]

Thanks mate

[@pounce8339]

Also notice how the Atletico players body shape funnels the Juve players into the wide areas where they then outnumber the Juve attackers. Quite often creating a defensive 2v1 or 3v1 or 3v2. So you've got numerical superiority in a tight space where it's difficult to score a goal. In all of the clips you can see the AM players inviting Juve to play it wide then as soon as they've "trapped" them they press with numerical superior. Even Ronaldo will struggle vs 2/3 opponents in a tight area.

[@RevolutioZ]

Atletico plays narrowly and press on the wings and the only thing to do is to switch the ball to the other flank to make them move over basically. When smaller teams in Spain play against Atletico they rarely even create 1 clear chance for a whole game. Atletico just work so hard.

[@feynman_QED]

2:40. The idea atletico strength in defense is shown by the small number of tackles in the zone 14 is biased by the final result of the match because there are matches in which the same occurs, yet the team loses. Moreover, the fact that in that zone there are few tackles is ALSO consistent with the fact a team dribbles over a lot. It hasn't occurred specifically in this match, but it may happen so i wouldn't rely that much on this kind of biased analysis.

[@Yigawant]

Well someone must have snitched those secrets because it all went to shit yesterday 😂😂😂

[@juniorjr11]

4-4-2 original is the best formation at all time

[@TMTyoutube]

5:55 this is like a chess game where you thought you did a good move by moving a piece in a dangerous position, but there were 3 pieces defending it thoroughly and now you wasted a move and are trapped

[@tanitojr]

Giménez and Godín.. two beasts from Uruguay

[@vincesalamander5980]

Even if it's ugly to watch, I thank Atletico to exist and Diego Simeone to be so intelligent... Because every great team play basicely the same football ! He's the only one who understand that you can win not with copying the strenghts of your opponent (high pressing, possession), but by countering his weaknesses

[@danurkresnamurti3598]

i just came here after ATM vs Liverpool

[@marvelous1358]

Atletico are so good. I predict a second leg win for them. They didn't even need to be at their best in the first leg and should have won 3-0 at least. Yeah I know Anfield will be tough but Atletico have been getting tough away wins against the likes of Barcelona and Bayern Munich in the Champions League. I believe them to be extremely hungry for their first CL trophy and they will put up trademark performance in the second leg.

[@ethht3524]

I disagree with the play @5:52 when that ball is played i feel the smartest decision is to drive the ball at the Luiz forcing him to make a commitment to the play and play the ball on the outside, Dybal makes his run in the game but because the decision or pass wasn't made fast enough so he had to hesitate his run to stay in a onside position, if the ball was played in, Partey would have to catch up to Dybal and this would mean Dybal can show off how good he his with a 1 on 1 play for a goal chance or even a high or low cross after driving in. Any one else feel the defending in the final 3ed is weak Juve were just playing in a passive mode, i feel like we will see this exploited in the 2ed leg with Ronaldo and Dybal making more 1 on 1 decisions with a deadly man like Mario in the box.
