Blog 16: 2-Hour Meeting Answer #2

Content:

  1. What is most important in winning an under 19 year old soccer league championship?
  2. The coach must strategize every league game that his team faces.
  3. Examples/Details
  • Formation 4-2-3-1 can be used against almost any other formation. Equilibrium of offense and defense if everyone does their part on the field. Meant for defense to overlap offense and have more attacking players.
  • Formation 4-5-1 is very defensive and usually not a team's first choice. Usually meant for teams that need to end with a final score of 0-0.
  • Formation 4-3-3 used by FC Barcelona. It is meant for the left and right defender to overlap the midfielders, run to oppoing field and either cross or pass the ball. Also meant for midfield to have control of the ball and maintain posession so the 3 offensive players can make a play or take shots. Barca has 65-75% possession on average per game.

     5. I plan to continue my study of answer 2 by finding more research on the formations
 and the professional teams that use it. I will also pay attention to the formation my coach uses and against what teams he uses them because it will give me a better understanding of which formations are most effective for the different situations.
