FOCUS Is this Juventus' big weakness?
Journalist Adriano Bacconi of Il Giorno provides us with this fascinating tactical analysis:
“I think De Boer won by taking risks and decided to push his team far higher up, something he hadn’t done yet.
"He therefore made the most of Juventus’ big weakness so far: dealing with teams who attack her. De Boer put three strikers on the Bianconeri’s defensive trio, and kept pushing up one of Mario and Banega to press Pjanic.
"Using Medel in a purely defensive role, without attacking duties, worked really well on Dybala".
Food for thought!
