Yesterday's Palmeiras in the Copa Libertadores was very happy, and the big win went smoothly! Today I will talk to you about a US dollar cup, El Salvador vs Costa Rica.

US Cup: El Salvador vs Costa Rica, do not play 5 defenders! Costa Rica is on the horizon

Because El Salvador and Costa Rica lost to Martinique and Panama respectively in the first round, the match turned into a life-and-death battle between them in advance, and the losing side was directly out. Both need to seize the chance of the rebound in this game to smooth out the big hole dug in the first round.

We always say that Costa Rica was a sinkhole this year, and after the World Cup, the team played five games, only won Martinique and lost all the other four. Among them, coach Suarez has a lot of responsibility, the traditional 541 tactic, which has been eaten for two years, and now the American team has studied it thoroughly. This kind of bus tactic, not only did not make the team's defense more stable, but also derived the problem of insufficient attack.

However, Uncle Ning believes that there is still a turnaround in Costa Rica. First of all, coach Suarez played against Panama and finally got the hang of it, put away the previous unchanged five defenders, took out the 343 lineup at the bottom of the box, and strengthened the attack, although the team still lost in the end, but the willingness to change the formation, is a good signal. Why do you say that?

In fact, Costa Rica can win when they field three or more frontcourt players against opponents who are weaker than themselves. Let's refer to two specific games:

In a friendly match against Nigeria last November, Suarez fielded a one-handed Campbell, followed by three strikers, Zamora, Ruiz and Hernandez, to win 2-0.

And, in the friendly match against Uzbekistan last September, the team used a 433 formation, with Suarez, Benegas and López playing at the same time, and finally won 2-1.

Both games proved that when not playing in a strong team, they abandoned the back five tactic and played more comfortably.

On the other hand, against Salvador, coach Perez is also a coach known for his solid defense, but this game is not a way out for the team.

At the same time, the team played against Martinique and conceded two goals in 5 minutes, and they were all caused by unforced errors, which will undoubtedly make Costa Rica catch and play, in the last round they have changed the formation to increase the thickness of the midfield to create a press, take the initiative, this game should continue to use, and achieve good results. Therefore, Ning Shu supported Costa Rica to successfully bounce back and win.

Friends who like it like it, follow and support it, and the rest of the games are not scattered in the old place.
