Starting Lineup

FRAN · CANDELAS · JORGE · YUSTE/MAXI · CARO · MARIN · SANDJI · POMARES/JULEN · ALE CONTRERAS · HEBER · PABLO AGUILAR

High pressing and direct attacking movements define this team as they utilize a 3-4-3 formation. The lineup focuses on winning the ball back high up the pitch to catch opponents out of position. This system is built to play with high intensity and verticality to stretch the opposition.

In goal, FRAN stays alert to sweep behind a high line when the defense pushes forward. The defensive unit functions as a back three with CARO acting as the central defender to hold the line and organize the unit. To his sides, YUSTE/MAXI operates as the left centre-back while MARIN plays as the right centre-back. These three defenders must stay compact to defend zonally and cover for the wide players.

The midfield operates as a flat four to control the center of the pitch and provide width. SANDJI plays as the left central midfielder to help protect the space in front of the defense, while POMARES/JULEN acts as the right central midfielder to drive forward with the ball. CANDELAS works as the left midfielder to help press in a mid-block, and JORGE plays as the right midfielder to provide depth. This group must work to compress the midfield and prevent opponents from playing through the lines.

Attacking the opposition involves three players across the front to pin the last defender. PABLO AGUILAR leads the line as a pressing centre-forward to force long balls from the opposition. On the flanks, ALE CONTRERAS plays as the left winger and HEBER operates as the right winger. Both players look to cut inside to create central presence or spread wide to deliver crosses. The front three combine in tight spaces to break the line and create chances for the team.

This 3-4-3 formation offers the advantage of wide overloads when the midfielders and wingers combine. The team can also use their high line to trigger a press and win the ball high up the pitch. The presence of three attackers allows the team to isolate wide players in one on one situations during transitions.

This lineup is designed for a high intensity game that relies on quick transitions and heavy pressing. It is best suited for facing opponents who struggle to play out from the back under pressure.
