The Euro Championship round of 16 is underway, with tonight's highlight of the game taking place at the Red Bull Arena in Leipzig as Austria takes on Turkey. This match is not only a matchup between two teams, but also a clash of tactical philosophies.
Austria are known for their trademark high pressing tactics, thanks to the masterful tactical set-up of coach Rangnick. His tactics not only made it difficult for opponents to find the ball, but also created many attacking opportunities at crucial moments. Netizens have said that Austria's ability to press high will be the key to this game, and one netizen commented: "Rangnick's team is always so good, their pressing is simply a tactical art!" Another netizen added: "The Austrian players are not only skilled, but also able to counter-attack quickly in pressing, which is really exciting." ”
At the same time, Turkey is facing a huge dilemma. They will be missing two key players in this game: captain Calhanoglu and defender Arcadin, which will be a tough test for a team accustomed to a back four. Without these two key players, especially without the playmaking and defensive core in midfield, Turkey could face the dual threat of difficulty on the ball and leaky defence. Football lovers began to talk about it, with one netizen writing on social media: "Without Oulu and Arcadine, Turkey's defence will be very challenged, and they urgently need to find a way to deal with Austria's pressing." Another netizen said: "Turkey may need to adjust their tactics and may see them adopt a more conservative defensive strategy." ”
The popularity of pressing high has made the back four look strained, especially without a central midfielder, Calhanoglu. This style of tactic is becoming increasingly popular in 2024 and is considered an effective strategy for dealing with quick counter-attacks by opponents. Some enthusiastic netizens began to discuss, and some netizens said: "For modern football, the pressure on the defensive line is too great, and there is not enough support, and it is difficult to deal with a strong team like Austria." Netizens also expressed similar opinions: "Austria's high-position pressing is their killer weapon, Turkey should be careful." ”
Austria are known for their high pressing tactics, thanks to the superb set-up of coach Rangnick. This tactic not only makes it difficult for opponents to find opportunities to get on the ball, but also creates a lot of attacking opportunities at key moments. Fans were full of praise for Rangnick's tactical approach, believing that his tactics were not just an arrangement, but an art. 'Rangnick isn't just a coach, he's a master tactician. A netizen commented on social platforms.
At the same time, Turkey faces serious challenges. They will be missing two key players in this game: captain Calhanoglu and defender Arcadin. This is undoubtedly a heavy blow for a team accustomed to a back four. With the loss of these two key players, especially in terms of defense and organization, the Turkish team could face unprecedented difficulties. In his column, a netizen wrote: "Austria's high pressing will be a big test for Turkey's back four, and they will need to find a solution quickly without a core player. ”
The popularity of pressing high has made the back four seem inadequate, especially without the heart of the midfield, Calhanoglu. This style of tactic is becoming increasingly popular in 2024 and is seen as an effective strategy against modern rapid counterattacks. A netizen said on the TV show: "Turkey's back four formation may feel a lot of pressure against Austria's high pressing, and they will need to quickly adjust their tactics to make up for the lost core." ”
However, Austria did not rely solely on tactical superiority. Their home advantage in Leipzig is also a factor to be reckoned with. With a number of players playing for German clubs, the familiarity and comfort of the pitch may give them an added psychological advantage on seemingly neutral grounds. A netizen sighed: "The performance of the Austrian players in Leipzig has always been excellent, and the advantage of the home stadium should not be underestimated. Avid football fans agree: "The pitch they are familiar with will give them more confidence, and that's key. ”
Turkey are expected to need to adjust their tactics quickly, especially when dealing with Austria's high press and taking advantage of the Red Bull Arena's home advantage. The mental quality of their players and the mistakes can also be a key factor in the game, directly affecting the final result of the game. Football fans began to speculate about the direction of the game, with netizens commenting on social platforms: "I think Turkey may be able to pose a threat to Austria on the counter-attack if they can concentrate and keep their defense solid." The football fan girl said with confidence: "We need more teamwork and tenacity to believe that Turkey can win this crucial game!" ”
In addition, Austria's technical characteristics have been analysed: although their players are not very technical, they have the advantage of being able to fight hard and play aggressively. This can often be seen in their games, whether it is offensive or defensive, they show a strong fighting spirit and an attitude that is not afraid of challenges.
On the eve of a suspenseful Euro last-16 match, football fans are beginning to focus on the unique characteristics of the Austrian team. One netizen wrote on social platforms: "The Austrian players may not be the kind of technical players, but their fighting spirit is really admirable, and this aggressive style of play can always cause problems for opponents." Another netizen added: "Every one of their players is like a hungry wolf, and they are not afraid to grab the ball, and this attitude is the key to their victory." ”
This tactical feature has been further developed and strengthened under Rangnick's guidance. As a manager known for his high pressing, Rangnick focuses on team integrity and individual tactical execution. In his column, a netizen wrote: "Rangnick's team doesn't just play by skill, they control the tempo of the game through powerful scrambling and aggression, a tactic that puts a lot of pressure on the opposition. Netizens are also looking forward to Rangnick's tactical style, and they believe that Austria can make a difference at the European Championships.
However, this Austrian tactical style is not without its weaknesses. Some netizens began to discuss their lack of technical details, believing that this could be a disadvantage when facing technical teams. Some netizens pointed out in the analysis: "The players of the Austrian team may not be as good as some technical teams in terms of passing and ball control, and they need to rely on tough fighting and quick counterattacks to make up for this shortcoming." Some netizens said with confidence: "Technology is not everything, spirit and teamwork are the most important, and the fighting spirit of the Austrian team will become their advantage." ”
This game will not only be a clash between two teams, but also a tactical and psychological showdown. The battle between Austria's high press and Turkey's missing core will determine the outcome of the match.
