Breaking down the opposition’s defence by creating and exploiting space with the 4-2-3-1 formation against the 4-4-2 or the 4-2-3-1

This presentation provides examples from the tactics of several top coaches such as Marcelo Bielsa, Jurgen Klopp, Jose Mourinho, Massimiliano Allegri and Maurizio Sarri about how to break down a defence through creating and exploiting space with the 4-2-3-1 formation. The popular formation can be used in order to drag defenders out of position and create space in specific areas. This space can be exploited by certain players and in different ways. However if space is not created the players who take part in the situation have other alternative options. The presentation will be supported by video analysis and animation as well as animated drills.
