In the last Group D match of the European Championship, Spain and Croatia battled until the last minute, and both sides showed their unique tactical styles. Spain dominated possession, emphasizing transmission and pressing, while Croatia relied on quick counter-attacks and playmaking at the heart of midfield Luka Modric. The tactical battle between the two teams is impressive, and it makes us think about another key battle that will be discussed in this issue – the potential tactical restraint between Austria and France.
The Austrian team is led by German coach Rangnick, who is known as the godfather of German football and the founder of high pressing. Rangnick advocates the concept of "the forward is the first defender", emphasizing the high intensity and high pressing of the whole team. This style is not just a theoretical guide, but also a moment in the game. Against their opponents, Austria pressed quickly, trying to cut off the line of attack in the opposition half and launching a quick counter-attack. This tactical advantage gives them the upper hand against some teams that are weaker defensively or loosely organised. However, pressing high has its drawbacks, even if the team's backline is relatively empty, making it easy to be exploited by the opposition's quick counter-attacks.
However, when facing a strong and counter-attacking team like France, the challenge for Austria has skyrocketed. Rangnick experienced this when he first faced France. When France attack, they can quickly break through Austria's high press with a single shot, and combined with Mbappe's superior dribbling ability, they can quickly form a threat once they can break through the first line of defence. In addition, Griezmann is an important point of attack for the French team, he can not only complete the goal himself, but also effectively connect the entire attacking system. How to contain these top players will undoubtedly be a tough test for Austria.
The French team has players of great quality and talent, whether from the front, midfield or back. There are sharp knives such as Mbappe and Antoine Griezmann in the front, world-class stars such as Pogba and Kante in the midfield, and there is no shortage of top central defenders such as Varane in the backline. Because of this, they have a flexible and effective strategy against different types of opponents. For example, when facing a team with the ball, they can disrupt the opponent's rhythm with quick counter-attacks and direct long passes; When encountering high-intensity pressing, he can effectively dissipate the pressure with his skillful one-kick technique. Therefore, for any team looking to challenge the supremacy of the French team, it is clear that it is not enough to rely on a single tactic.
Combined with the above analysis, we might as well make a bold prediction of the upcoming battle of focus. Overall, although Austria has a unique and efficient tactical system, it is still slightly inferior to France in terms of overall strength and individual ability. As such, it could well be a hard-fought contest that ended in a narrow victory for France. Of course, this is only speculation based on current information, and for those who really love football and follow the sport, every second is full of unknowns and surprises. No outcome is foregone until the tournament officially begins. And that's one of the most fascinating parts of football.
Going forward, regardless of the outcome of this game, we are confident that both teams will learn from this experience and be better prepared for the upcoming fixtures. At the same time, we are also looking forward to more exciting and dramatic games to present one visual feast after another for the majority of fans. From this point of view, every competition is a learning and growth, and every spectator will experience the infinite charm of football in this exciting experience.
To sum up, whether it is Austria, which is full of fighting spirit and distinctive style but slightly immature under the leadership of Rangnick, or France, which is strong, skilled and experienced, and adaptable, such a battle will surely provide us with a wonderful and suspenseful scene. Regardless of the outcome, I hope that everyone who loves football can enjoy the immortal beauty of this millisecond, ever-changing, never-ending and always worth looking forward to. If you're one of them, don't miss out on this great opportunity, because your football story has just begun.
