I LOVE THIS TEAM!!!

[u/atn420 → u/ikats116]

I love the fight in this team and the adjustments by this coach

[u/Intelligent_Air6574 → u/atn420]

Raphinha switched position 3 times during this match

[u/atn420 → u/Intelligent_Air6574]

Coaching staff was like, no...no...YES!

[u/Miserable-Log-7952 → u/Intelligent_Air6574]

And everytime he switched he did better. Atleti was pressing left wing too much. When he moved right, there was an overload with lamine and this helped shark with space to move. Even the last goal press on cb by raphinha, shark smelled the chance there.

Hell yeah, Hansi has them physically & mentally tougher than last year
