Against Atlético, every ball Stuttgart won high went forward fast and ended in a shot; they just could not beat Oblak.
“Durch schnelles Vertikalspiel kam Stuttgart anschließend auch zu zahlreichen Abschlüssen, ließ dann aber einiges liegen oder scheiterte am starken Gäste-Keeper Jan Oblak.”Through quick vertical play Stuttgart then got numerous shots, but wasted several or were denied by the visitors' strong goalkeeper Jan Oblak. our translation
A Slovan defender on Stuttgart: they play at high intensity, quick and technical.
“Je to tím, ktorý hrá vo vysokej intenzite, rýchlo, technicky.”It is a team that plays at high intensity, fast, technically. our translation
They do not sit back. Stuttgart come after you high up the pitch and try to make you play under pressure the moment you get the ball.
“In der Defensive agieren sie mit hohem Druck gegen den Ball und wollen intensiv pressen.”Defensively they operate with high pressure against the ball and want to press intensively. our translation
Club Brugge press high to stop you building calmly from the back.
“Club probeert ook hoger op het veld druk te zetten, waardoor tegenstanders minder tijd krijgen om rustig op te bouwen.”Club also try to press higher up the pitch, so opponents get less time to build up calmly. our translation
They are the champions, but they look a gear slower than last year. Belgian pundits say the football is comfortable rather than dangerous, and the wingers are not producing what Christos Tzolis did before he left.
“Het voetbal is momenteel te gezapig en mist versnelling.”At the moment the football is too sluggish and lacks acceleration. our translation
Brugge want to pin you inside your own penalty area and win the ball straight back when it comes out. Ivan Leko judges his team on shots and sprinting, not on how much of the ball they have.
“Ik houd ervan als we de tegenstander wegduwen in hun box, want dat betekent dat je goed voetbalt.”I love it when we push the opponent back into their own box, because that means you are playing well. our translation
