A high press and aggressive verticality define this team, which operates within a 4-3-3 formation. This lineup is built to win the ball high up the pitch and immediately attack the opposition. The goal is to stretch the defence and use quick transitions to catch opponents before they can set their defensive block.
DI FRANCO stays between the posts to command the area and organize the back line. The defense operates with a flat back four, where PETRUCCI plays as the right back and CALVANO occupies the left back position. MARTINEZ acts as a right centre back with the ability to carry the ball forward, while ROSSI covers the left side of the central defence. The defensive unit aims to squeeze the space and keep the distance between the lines very small to prevent any easy play through the lines.
The midfield is a three-man midfield with a carrier and creative operators. TROVATO plays as a central midfielder who works to win the second ball and connects the defensive and attacking lines. MAURO operates in the left central midfield role, providing a presence to shield the defence and recycle possession. BOJANG plays as an attacking ten behind the striker, looking to find pockets of space and play through the lines to split the defence with a through ball.
In the final third, the team uses three attackers across the front to maintain constant pressure. ARAMBURU acts as the central striker, tasked to hold up the ball and pin the last defender to create room for others. DIAW plays as a left winger who likes to cut inside to trouble the opposition, while HARDES stays wide on the right to stretch the defence. This front line is designed to create runs in behind and allow for quick combinations in tight spaces when the team breaks quickly.
This formation offers significant advantages through its ability to press high in coordinated waves. By using the front three and the attacking midfielder, the team can trigger a press the moment the opposition tries to play out from the back. Another strength is the capacity to create wide overloads when the full backs, PETRUCCI and CALVANO, push up to overlap the winger.
This 4-3-3 lineup is built for dominance through high intensity and rapid attacking transitions. It is best suited for matches against teams that struggle to play out from the back under heavy pressure.
