Day 2 | Hungary vs Switzerland | Spain vs Croatia | Italy vs Albania

Has Gvardiol always played left back?

He's composed and decent going forward but seems like a big net negative when the Croatian central defence seem slow and passive.
Maybe they're trying the city set up.

Remember him playing centrally in the world cup.
 
Croatia paying the price for having hardly any turnover in their squad. Looks its age now.
 
Fecking hell. Yamal looks decent. This 50 minute cameo has been better than anything Foden has ever done in a England shirt.
 
Croatia could have easily scored two goals.

Very early days (three games :lol: ) but it feels like a tournament where there will be a lot of attacking football and space to run into for forwards.
 
Cucurella stopping that goal from getting in.

It is fair to say he scored a defensive goal.
 
Fecking hell. Yamal looks decent. This 50 minute cameo has been better than anything Foden has ever done in a England shirt.
Let’s be real, Yamal would be crap for Southgate too.
 
Maybe they're trying the city set up.

Remember him playing centrally in the world cup.

Trying too much imo. Take out a young, strong, physical player from the centre of defence to have him play out wide and do 'okay' as an attacking full back.
 
The difference with this Spain side is they break so fast, not endless passing in those situations, just get it towards Croatia's goal.
