Belgium plays this Monday against France in the Nations League. The Belgians are coming out of a draw (2-2) against Italy.
Many criticisms have been made regarding the gaming system put in place by Domenico Tedesco during the match against Italy this Thursday.
The former Red Devil Philippe Albertconsultant for the RTBFgave several keys so that the meeting against France does not (anymore) result in a defeat.
“The Italians did relatively well with our pressing even though they have fewer qualities than the French. We must therefore stop with this high pressing and play a little more intelligently. However, let’s not return to what we tried tactically against France at the Euro. That choice was a joke. Football must remain a simple sport.”
“At the Euro, it was either a make or break situation. Here, Domenico Tedesco is taking the Nations League a bit by storm. Why not risk something spectacular since the result no longer has any importance. France is an opponent which has not suited us for more than forty years in official competition.”
“We can win against any opponent. But, at the moment, we can also be beaten by less strong teams who, before, did not give the Devils any difficulty,” continued Albert, who advocates a return to a 4-3-3 against France.
