to manipulate defenders and put them on the back foot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His decision making is also top tier, often making the right choice of pass, the right movements to receive the ball in space and taking shots of his own when the chance is there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-madrid-changes-add-dynamism\">Madrid changes add dynamism<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bayern Munich were pressing aggressively in the first half, but after taking their two-goal lead, Real Madrid made a number of changes, which compounded with Bayern&#8217;s drop in intensity off the ball, allowed them to take more control in the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eder Militao replaced Dean Huijsen, but the key changes came further forwards, as Jude Bellingham replaced Thiago Pitarch, before Brahim Diaz also replaced Guler 10 minutes later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img

Tacticalista<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dynamism this created in Real Madrid&#8217;s right-sided triangle allowed them to manipulate Bayern who were still defending in a relatively man to man fashion despite sitting deeper in their own half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mbappe&#8217;s goal came from a connection between Alexander-Arnold and Bellingham, which ended with a brilliant cross going across the box, Diaz attacking the penalty spot and Mbappe arriving at the back post to guide it home and make it 2-1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-bayern-s-attacking-balance\">Bayern&#8217;s attacking balance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are four key components to Bayern Munich&#8217;s attacking setup, which consisted of Olise, Gnabry, Diaz and Kane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Olise acts as the primary creator\/playmaker for the team, getting into wide 1v1 isolations where he can manipulate the full-back, create separation and constantly look to find his teammates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gnabry plays in more of a free role as the No.10\/shadow striker behind Kane, making runs beyond, drifting to either side to create overloads and dragging markers away from the middle.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Diaz is the runner of the front four, constantly threatening with movements to go beyond and attack the space, which creates space for others between the lines and offers an outlet to find on the end of crosses\/through balls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And lastly, Kane can act as both a playmaking centre-forward or as a box striker, depending on the opposition and what the game needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bayern Munich&#8217;s attack is perfectly balanced, showing how complementary profiles are key to an effective attack, rather than just throwing quality players together and hoping they can make it work.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a
