We are back next week with live videos and discussion.

Is it possible to download select videos? Would like to utilize a few videos in PowerPoint for team game day preparation. Specifically the 3-4-3 High Pressing videos

You mentioned in passing during your Spain analysis that there are 5 pressing set ups for a 2 pressing against a 3. Have you made a video on that anywhere in your sessions? Would be very helpful

If you haven't had a chance to read it yet, it covers Spain's high-pressing systems, the mid-block structure, and the role of Rodri in holding it all together.

We're going live tonight at 6pm UK time to go deeper into all three areas. A great chance to ask questions and discuss the ideas in more detail.

Open to everyone. The recording will be made available to subscribers after 👊

• the counter-attacking issues against a 3-4-3

• wide play, and how it can pin an opponent back

New Analysis: Japan 1-2 Brazil 🔍

A really sharp tactical breakdown of how Brazil eventually unlocked Japan's compact 3-4-3, and why it took until the second half to find the answer.

The piece covers the shape battle between Brazil's 4-3-3 and Japan's setup, the issues Brazil ran into trying to play through centrally in the first half, Danilo's role dropping into a back three and the problems that created, and how Ancelotti's second half adjustment to play with width rather than through the lines turned the game.

We're also running a live class on this one today at 4pm UK time, where we'll go through the analysis in more detail. Can't make it live? No problem, the recording will be added straight after for anyone who misses it and is subscribed to Tactx.

Give the analysis a read before then, if you can, and fire over any questions
