Lineup (3-5-2)

L. Suarez · K. Huntelaar · S. Cazorla · L. Modric · G. Bale · Felipe Melo · Xavi · I. Abate · C. Puyol · D. Agger · H. Lloris

Solid defensive line with three good centre backs keen to get stuck in and win the ball to get it out. Two different holding midfielders, both able to do the defensive job with Melo getting stuck in and Xavi spraying the passes, allowing a Tika-Taka style play. Two wingers able to go for hours due to their great stamina and at some pace, especially Gareth Bale. A technically gifted Modric also able to sit between the oppositions defence and midfield making him very hard to mark, allowing him to spray some key, play-making passes and assists. Suarez up top as a good all-around player, picking up key balls, firing in some shots, making himself space along with a handful in the box and all-in-all making it a nightmare for the opposition defence. Huntelaar is alongside his striking partner Suarez as a big target man on the defensive all day long as a threat for headers, a fantastic finisher, and a strong lump able to push past the defenders with ease following one of his superb shots or a pass to his sidekick who is always able to get into space.

Subs - Ter Stegen, Howedes, Kolarov, Blaszczykowski, Lucas Moura, Hamsik, Dzeko.
