Honestly the only reason we won there is because Ramos was out and Real was too relaxed in general.
I still believe it is up to us. We are on paper inferior to no one and we should just do whatever I was thinking of from the start
Our strength Def great Mid weak Attack great
Atletico`s strength defense great mid very good attack good
Which means if we play mid vs mid we are going to lose but if we skip the mid and go on to attack we have a good chance
We need to force them playing our game which in this case means we should play 4-2-3-1 with 2CM (in my opinion Bentancur and Matuidi) and 3 attackers Mandzukic on the left - for some reason he is really good at this position Dybala on the center and since Cuad is out I`d say D.Costa as he can dribble his way against the very best
our defense is easy since its Spinazzola vs MDS where one is seriously more experienced at this level.. Bonucci and Chiellini - I`d think of putting Rugani instead of Bonucci but Bonucci`s passing ability in this kind of game could be vital.. and of course Cancelo on the right to create extra havoc.
Playing in a defensive set of mind will surely eliminate us
