@CaptnGuardiola They are missing abde 🥲
There are many more attacking patterns, but you get the gist. Many rotations and movements.
Saibari all over the pitch, similar to Dembele at PSG. Sometimes dropping deep to pick up the ball to progress.

@__TheNearPost_ Paqueta 🐐
Guimarães, Casemiro, Paquetá. 3 different profiles.
Guimarães progresses, presses and wins second balls.
Casemiro sits, screens, reads danger before it happens.
Paquetá links the pivot to the attack,he finds Cunha and Endrick between the lines, or Vini and Raphina on the wings.
@umirf1 3-diamond-3 🔥
In attack, Cunha and Endrick are both comfortable dropping deeper to receive. The opponent CB's can choose to follow or stay in position.
Eitherway this creates huge spaces for Vini and Raphinha to run into. Or a central overload to exploit.
@saundzo Adams 🔥
Tyler Adams is the quarterback of this USA team.
He sits centrally, protects the back four and wins the ball back. Buildup goes through him. From his deep position, he sprays passes all over the pitch, connecting defense and attack.
@niloy_khan329 He doesnt need to track back too much. I made this before the world cup did not know militao was injured. You could replace him with anyone. Bremer for example
Brazil haven’t won a World Cup since 2002.
Not because they didn't have the players, but because they didn't have the right system.
This year, at the 2026 World Cup, that changes.

@Adroit_Cadet Get Endrick in there as well and you have a monster attack 🔥🔥

@Ruxiiii4 Already expected it would eventually turn out like this 🤔🤔
Had it even more aggressive myself with Endrick as a 2nd ST alongside Cunha

@saundzo Argentina understands: dont need width when you have got that much quality centrally 🔥🔥
The central overload is how Argentina create their best chances.
Messi receives between the lines on the right. Paz finds space on the left. Álvarez drops to create the 3rd option. Enzo arrives from deep as the 4th, creating a central overload in tight space.
@saundzo Brazil have so much quality centrally. Just overload the centre with the wingers running in behind 🤔🤔

@SelecaoTalk They should change the formation 🤔🤔
Pure brazil football 🔥

@EzeChinweik Not as good as brazil, but still a good performance for a player his age
Bouaddi was the best player on the pitch in Morocco's opening game.
19 years old. Played like he'd done this 10 times before.
Here's exactly what he did and why it worked.
If you want the full breakdown of this Morocco team, you can find the complete thread below ⬇️⬇️
@NickRTFM They rarely conceded in 2022 and they still press very well 💪
Morocco conceded 1 goal in 5 knockout games at the 2022 World Cup.
The DNA hasn't changed. They compress the space between the lines. Possession teams bounce off them. Very hard to break through.
But they could also deliver a relentless press, if a trigger presents itself.
@NickRTFM They will go all the way !! 🔥

This is part 6 of the series breaking down how each team can win the World Cup. If you want the full tactical breakdown for every contender, follow along. The Netherlands are next. 🧵
2002 was the last time.
2026 is the time they win their 6th.
Brazil are winning the World Cup this year. 🇧🇷

USA have never won a World Cup. But they have never hosted one with a squad this good either.
This generation is more technical and more tactically developed than any US team before them.
🧵 How USA Will Win the World Cup.
Never won a World Cup. Not yet.
2026 is where that changes.
Pulisic at his peak on home soil. And tens of thousands Americans in the stands every game. With millions supporting from elsewhere.
USA are winning the World Cup this year. 🇺🇸
@umirf1 So much technical quality all over 🔥
Many different attacking patterns. Like this one on the LHS. Saibari dropping deep from false 9 and diaz taking his spot. El Khannous making a run in behind into the space Saibari created.
@killeures They are going all the way !! 💪
In 2022, Morocco became the first African nation to reach a World Cup semi-final.
That wasn't a fluke. They were only the start for the next generation of Moroccan football.
That team has largely gone. But this year they are even better.
