Starting Lineup
RUFFINO (27) · PIÑA (5) · GONZALEZ (2) · TREGARTTEN (21) · STABILE (3) · VARGAS (15) · MESTRE (23) · MOZEJKO (14) · KLIX (36) · DOS REIS (25) · PRIMO (8)Talleres operates with a high press and a vertical identity using a 4-3-3 formation. This lineup is built to win the ball back high up the pitch and move forward with pace to catch the opposition out of position. The team looks to stretch the defence through quick transitions and direct play.
RUFFINO starts in goal to organize the back line. Talleres defends with a flat back four where STABILE acts as a left back to provide width while PIÑA plays as a right back. In the center, TREGARTTEN and GONZALEZ form the defensive pairing. TREGARTTEN is tasked with covering the space behind while GONZALEZ can step up to intercept passes. The unit works together to squeeze the space and maintain a high line to keep the distance between the lines short.
The midfield functions as a three-man midfield with a single pivot. VARGAS sits in front of the defence to shield the back four and recycle possession. Alongside him, KLIX and MOZEJKO act as the engine room. KLIX works to drive forward with the ball and connect the defensive and attacking lines, while MOZEJKO looks to arrive late into the box to support the attack. This trio works to compress the midfield and win the second ball once the initial press is broken.
Talleres utilizes three attackers across the front to pin the opposition defenders. MESTRE leads the line as a pressing centre-forward who works to harass the center backs. On the flanks, DOS REIS plays as a left winger who cuts inside to create central presence, while PRIMO operates as a right winger to stretch the play. The front three work to create runs in behind and look for cutbacks from the byline when the full backs push up. They aim to isolate wide players in one on one situations to break the lines.
This formation offers significant advantages in transition and ball winning. The team can trigger a press in coordinated waves, using the front three to force a long ball from the opponent. Another strength is the ability to create wide overloads when the full backs overlap the wingers. This movement forces the opposition to shift and leaves gaps in the middle for the midfielders to exploit.
Talleres relies on an aggressive attacking identity to dominate games. This 4-3-3 is best suited for matches where the team can exploit a high defensive line or overwhelm the opponent through quick, vertical transitions.
