Didn’t really understand any of that half-time analysis on BBC about Diomande, at all. He’s taking too much touches & not being direct enough when he’s won 5?/7 1v1s against one of the better FBs in Europe. Esp defensively. He had a ‘dip’ because he didn’t get the ball, but it was framed as if he was playing badly. Strange.
English
Ecuador are exploitable between defensive and midfield lines when they look to transition from a zonal press to a man to man to press. This is because at times a CB doesn’t always make a central jump to back up the press.
Pepe was free behind the midfield line when Ecuador jumped to press in the 36th minute, another similar moment in the 28th minute.
Looks like following the first drinks break Ivory Coast have stopped pressing from restarts man to man instead opting for Fofana half and half, Pepe and Wahi narrow looking to force the play to one side, from there the ball side 9 presses cutting off the return passing lane and the far side 9 moves to the 6. Caicedo and Vite playing on staggered lines in build up.

Really great game this. Both sides build in a 3-2-5 in settled possession (made up differently though) Both sides press man to man from opposition goal kicks, both sides in a 4-4-2 mid block which transitions man to man higher up. Ecuador create a 4-4-2 through Yeboah alongside Valencia in the front 2 and Plata moving into the midfield line, Franco (RCB) moved to RB with Hincapie at LB. Big fan of Ivory Coast in possession, from goal kicks a 4-2-4 with the pivots starting high and dropping low dragging their markers high, this leaves 1v1 situations on the Ecuador backline for Ivory Coast to go long too. Few passes to entice the press and allow the midfield to drop before clipping it long. Vitte often dropping into the backline in Ecuador build up. Ivory Coast need to keep getting the ball to Diomande, been a huge threat 1v1 as always.

Horrible in game changes from Koeman, Summerville should have played the 90
Not convinced with The Netherlands. Too static in possession and nowhere near enough rotations or 3rd man movements higher up the pitch. Static 4-3-3. Wide triangles on both sides but no interchanging between the 3 players makes it a lot easier to defend. Out of possession far too passive in a 5-4-1.
Netherlands 2nd goal comes from a simple Dumfries overlap on the right creating space for Summerville to cut inside. Can’t particularly say the same for the left as Van De Ven is at left back, he isn’t a natural LB so won’t particularly have good understanding on when to rotate with players in Netherlands left sided triangle and when to overlap and underlap in supporting attacks. (Not that anyone was consistently rotating in the Netherlands structure anyway). Combine Van De Ven simply not being a natural LB with Gakpo who isn’t the most successful at taking the opposition LB on 1v1 and it leads to the left side being extremely limited in what it can offer.
A draw a fair result.

@Florian_04_ I see I see, however higher up the pitch there’s still so little rotations within the structure.
English
@dzi_analysis They want to minimise the risk of being caught in transition as this has been a huge issue for them in the last friendlies
English
Extremely basic 4-3-3 in possession for The Netherlands, rarely see any transition into a back 3 or any other settled possession shape, took 8 minutes to see the first rotation or bit of movement with Dumfries moving high and De Jong moving to RB.
Rare to see such little movement in possession.
English
Pedestrian pace from Netherlands in possession, far too slow on the ball. Japan missing Mitoma in transition to carry the ball forwards following winning the ball in the first or 2nd phase.
Real lack of pressure on the ball when out of possession from Netherlands.
Dom@dzi_analysis
The Netherlands have been very basic in possession, 4-3-3 with very little movement or rotations, everything is static. Only from around 15-20 mins onwards have we seen Dumfries move high into the right half space once in settled possession. Apart from that very little to give the Japan 5-3-2/5-4-1 anything to think about. Off the ball an extremely passive 5-4-1 with De Jong dropping from midfield into the defensive line at CCB. Japan in a 4-2-4 from goal kicks which transitions into a 3-2-5 with the WB’s advanced, Nakamura often inverting into the left half space as seen just before the call for the drinks break. Japan off the ball pressing in a 5-4-1/5-3-2, when in the former the midfield line is very compact and narrow forcing The Dutch to pass to the dropping wingers with the WB’s ready to jump and engage on their first touch. Cagey start.

3rd man runs and movements everywhere for Germany throughout that 2nd half, Curaçao’s 4-4-2 diamond couldn’t contain them,
Dick Advocaat moved Chong out of possession at half time moving him from the tip of the diamond into the front 2 with Antonisse on in the ‘10’ position (where Chong was in the first half). Chong often made the first pass forwards to begin transition in the first half so after he got moved higher Curaçao struggled to move the ball from back to front when they won the ball deep.
Undav was top when he came on, great dropping movements, lovely weighted passes to teammates and bagged himself a goal.
Overall the fluidity in the final 3rd was great from Germany, rotations everywhere and players dropping and moving to create space for others. Still vulnerable in transition but many positives to take from the performance. 🇩🇪🇨🇼
English
@dzi_analysis Yeah I liked nagelsmann ip ideas but in transition vulnerable
English
Real blow for Curaçao to concede the 3rd before half time as they remained a threat in transition at 1 goal down. 2 goals down against far superior opposition MAY crumble the attacking spirit.
Germany’s intricate technical play between the lines has been top. Less impressed with their defensive transitions which we knew was a weakness of their’s pre game.

Fair play Curaçao! 4-4-2 diamond off the ball, long from goal kicks not taking any unnecessary risks with the ball. Curaçao looking to drag Germany CB’s out and give space for another teammate to attack. Germany have also been good, 3-1-6 build up structure with lots of rotations between the lines. Lots of intricate passes trying to rely on their technicality. Minimal width.
English
@dzi_analysis They conceded the goal very similar to what you have mentioned
English
Here we go then Germany’s first game of the tournament, expect a 3-1-6 in possession for Germany, big emphasis on lots of bodies on the last line.
Germany can be susceptible to transitions as Kimmich and the CB’s don’t cover a lot of ground quickly so that’ll be Curaçao’s best hope,
Everyone obviously expects Curaçao to have many long periods without the ball so we won’t see much of Germany’s out of possession idea.

Below is an example of what I believe Turkey didn't do enough, when Australia transitioned from zonal to man to man off the ball it gave Turkey the required space to play down to one side before quickly playing to the other.
Example below of what I mean from an in game moment.
