#GRAMUN
(1/8) Granada played in a 4-2-3-1 formation when in possession, and applied an aggressive high press throughout the game, forcing regular exchanges of possession between the teams #GRAMUN #TacticalAnalysis
(2/8) When out of possession, Granada adopted a 5-3-1-1 shape, with wide forward Kenedy supporting the midfield unit, while on the other flank Puertas provided additional cover against the overlapping United left-back Luke Shaw #GRAMUN #TacticalAnalysis
(3/8) Granada attacked quickly after regaining possession and attempted to exploit the spaces in United's defensive unit before they were able to become compact. Granada created options to play through or around the back four but few chances followed #GRAMUN #TacticalAnalysis
(4/8) After regaining possession in deeper positions Granada looked to transition into attack quickly. When defensive midfielder Gonalons received the ball, this would trigger forward runs from players who had an opportunity to exploit space in behind #GRAMUN #TacticalAnalysis
(5/8) When in possession Manchester United played in a 4-2-3-1 formation with height and width provided by wide forwards Daniel James and Marcus Rashford #GRAMUN #TacticalAnalysis
(6/8) When out of possession, James and Rashford/Greenwood dropped into deeper positions to support the central midfielders. The shape appeared as a 4-4-1-1 but as Granada didn't sustain long periods of possession, United remained in a 4-2-3-1 #GRAMUN #TacticalAnalysis
(7/8) When regaining possession at a point where Granada had players committed forward, United looked to counter-attack at pace #GRAMUN #TacticalAnalysis
(8/8) The relationship between Wan-Bissaka, Pogba and James aimed to evade the Granada high press. James dropped from an advanced position, attracting left-back Carlos Neva out, before playing inside to Pogba to use the space created in the wide channel #GRAMUN #TacticalAnalysis
