Modric was an unsung hero second half. He was everywhere and making the right passes. His movement led to the second goal. He also made some good passes. He was just sublime. Being more mobile than kroos, he took on some advanced positions.
How can you miss mentioning the introduction of Modric? Man changed the game
yup
because he doesnt know what he is talking about and clearly hasnt watched the game SMFH
he didnt changed the game, ancelotti knows when to use him in the right time modric was just doing his usual job
Cama changed the game
He is not serious
Madrid in the 2nd Half did really well in controlling the game started winning duels as The changes of Camavinga Modric and Joselu came the game became much more open And Jude thunderbolt shot definitely gave Madrid the lifeline needed
You missed the most important Substitute in the game: Luka Modric
Good analysis, but you missed how momentum shifted to RM with the introduction of Modrić. His introduction gave Bellingham more attacking freedom than in the first half. To be fair Barça were good but they got outplayed in the latter stage of the match. Lastly, Bellingham is the real deal; a Zizou reincarnation, and I stand by what I said.
Probably has an even higher ceiling imo
Camavinga too
Camavinga also, i see why ancelotti say "i need someone like camavinga to play with vini" thats why he play him as lb
@@thomasshelby5454 It hurts to see Improve not improve his footballing and attacking iq one bit😢
Momentum never favoured Barca anyway.
Barcelona have a good core of young players coming up, fermin lopez was actually superb in that first half specifically, that first half is some of the best football I've seen them play all season, they however should have known that real madrid would have up their game in the second half so they should have tried to kept the same tempo from the first half going, real madrid however momentum skyrocketed after their equalizer, I wasn't even surprised they went on to win this match, they are one of the very few teams in europe who can be poor and still get results... gonna be a exciting season going forward can't wait to see the next clasico.
look forward to Real with Mbappe and Davies aren't you
@@1607Adi_Manz yes without a doubt
It’s frustrating, we’ve seen Felix ferran and fermin miss clear chances early on in games, and then every attacker struggles to get shots off in the second half
Am I missing something, because only chance I can think of in the first half was the Fermin hitting the post after Kroos mistake. Felix had one situation when he meged Rudiger but Caravajal was just faster (happens ofter to Felix in open play, he is really skilled but slow as a snail for a modern forward). Barca wasnt as amazing as real eas terrible first half, especialy Vini straight up played against his own team, dude needs to get his shit together.
Modric gave Barca a midfield lesson. For me he was our MOTM
Gavi gave a lesson in the midfield. Modric came when players were tired. The subs were just shit (romeu). With the main team, barça wins the match easily
....!!what abt gavi he is everywhere constantly pressing,carrying...
@@Master-sb3jn Modric no need to run or push people around to boss the mid. He's class above the rest
@@karimmoorad4128moderic was a game changer yes but gavi was schooling it before moderic came on and still was doing it after moderic came on but moderic was just that guy
@@user-er6mw1dx2rhe was just running like headless chicken, kicking Bellingham, shoving players lol
Other than the intro of Modric and Camavinga shifting the momentum, its worth noting that Gavi was everywhere up until Jude's rocket. He's work rate is 🔥
Yeah he was fire, his job was to mark Jude and Jude made 2 goals, but Gavi was fire, his personal mark was the man of the match, but Gavi was fire. 😅😅😅😅
In other words, you didn't watch the game😂
@@Stayner 😂😂 I advise you to watch the game and then reread my comment.
@chrispinemwape2629 If you don't think about what he says, it makes sense 😂
@chrispinemwape2629 I watched the game twice already. The only thing gavi did was play catch-up with Bellingham. Overrated player. Will follow Riqui Puig in a few years.
This game was a great extension of the copa del rey 4-0 classic both in terms of the flow of the game and tactically. In that game barca were all over us in the first half until rodrygos equalizer before the break. That game too was a pentagon vs box midfield battle in favor of real, this time Xavi opted to correct that with his own pentagon and kill us early which they should have done as they hit the post twice. But then once modric, cama, and joselu got subbed on, it was a different game.
Its actually crazy that pedri and frenkie both missed the games. Its pretty worrying what barca medical is doing. They would for sure changed this game if they could have been subbed in. Maddid just have a better squad depth in general and their coach is experienced who can adapt to any moment. 2 big things what decided the game
@@Eric-hu2dw Frenkie was a bad miss, but pedri's absence doesnt surprise me, he was overplayed as a youngster for 2 years including the olympics immediately after the euros, recurring injuries were bound to happen sooner or later.
Xavi got his substitutions wrong.
Who would you rather sub in
Plain and simple
No more options... and Fermin was taried, he is new at pro fútbol, just few games
Joao and Ferran came off way too early
@@LoopSeek3r they were tired. They have played too many games because of the current injury crisis. Remember Felix had a knock in the last game.
I think Jude, like Messi in the false 9 scheme, could mark an era. Everyone forgets that's where Messi had his peak years, not necessarily in that inside inverted winger position he's had ever since Suarez joined Barcelona, but in that unpredictabe false 9 role where he had complete freedom to roam outside the box but always finish in the poacher's position. If you analyze and compare his data and heatmaps vs Messi 2009 it'll blow your mind. Especially how little they spend in the box but how most of their attempts come from a striker position. It's literally the exact same scheme.
That's actually what I've been thinking
Jude is not Messi. He was absent entire game only seen after the goals. He is just lucky at goal... he takes his chances well.
He is more like Kaka
Jude is a box to box midfielder. I see he's not that good in creating, keep possession, passing, dribbling etc like was Messi. Let's see whether or not he can score that many goals during 1 season at least. I al afraid he's a bit over performing
@@franksimonda9991 Lucky at Goal? Did you see his first goal?
Ancelotti on-game adaptation is genius. Its like nothing i habe seen from any other manager
imagine this Real squad under Xabi Alonso next season with new ST and RB ~ chef kiss
Just take me back to 2009 already.....
Yep, the way Real Madrid play, despite having all this talent, is dreadful. It's almost similar to the way Utd played in their last season with Fergie (extremely boring and slow). Madrid need a manager who actually wants to destroy their opponents like they used to. Ancelotti in his second term and Zidane throughout his entire time at Madrid, just rely/relied on individualism and do/did the bare minimum to get the win.
@@cisco9281exactly. Ancelotti is the problem.
@@hrt-gaming4920yep and Perez. Perez only hires puppet managers (Lopetegui) or managers willing to put up with his bullshit (Ancelotti). I don't know if Xabi will want to put up with Perez. There's a reason why managers like Klopp, Naglesmann, or Flick won't ever come to Madrid.
Barca had multiple chances and only took one. Bellingham had two half chances and took both. That was the difference. As a barca fan, I’m always jealous of the clutch players Madrid always seem to have. First it was Ronaldo and benzema, now it’s Bellingham.
They are built different.
I think this is a great analysis that clearly describes what happened on the pitch. I would just add that Modric also had a big impact since he was introduced on the pitch. In the first half, Madrid was very lucky not to concede more goals. in the second half, Madrid's game really improved. I still don't understand why Brahim doesn't get to play. especially considering Rodrygo's current form
Camavinga and Modric changed the game in a good way for Madrid and Romeu in the opposite way for Barcelona. Real Madrid was being dominated until for 60+ minutes!
Tactically xavi outclassed anceloti especially with majority of starters injured, barca might just be one of the favoriteies for ucl
Delusion😂
you just completely ignored the second half, then, huh? If only 1 goal came out of all that first-half outclassing, then I think Xavi missed his opportunity, and is to blame.
@@Coach-rq6jx don’t mind the clown
Bellingham is outrageous
Best player of his age/generation! He has been carrying Madrid this season. Wow😮what a player!
Overrated and lucky as fk
Xavi's tactics: ➡️⬆️↗️↘️↩️⤴️⤵️ Ancelotti's tactics: Pass to BellingHIM
Can’t work against city
Excelent analysis, as always. However, there are some key factors that I think should have been mencioned: 1 - The impact of Modric, as important as the impact of Camavinga. 2 - The mistakes that Xavi made on the subs, especially bringing on Oriol Romeu. I think that he came on for the physicall battles with Joselu and Bellingham, but for me he was never quick enough on and off the ball, which in the end of the game, would be crucial for Barça. I apologise for possible mistakes that I made writting and on my analysis
Mate, Xavi had zero options.
Yeah, Xavi's subs were what actually changed the game in Madrid's favor more than anything. And you can't fault Xavi for them because of their injury situation. It would be very interesting matchup to see this again but with a healthier Barca squad.
I love your analysis. Well explained and simple, also a good voice😅. I'm a regular viewer
this is garbage.
at this point u cant say that madrid are just lucky or have something magical to always clutch it up, there's got to be something that ancelotti is doing perhaps playing with lower intensity at first and raising it higher when the opponent is tired, idrk i didn't watch the game i can't lie
Second goal pure luck no doubt.
@@RoodBull_SAMA but why were Modric and Carvajal allowed that much space in the first place? That answers your question, you're welcome.
That's evident. Ancelotti knows that in these games if you play with high intensity like Barca did in the first half, you'll be prone to both physical and mental fatigue as the game goes on. And once that happens, he has the players with quality that can win games for him. You rarely see Real Madrid concede in the later stages of the game when they're in control. Also, with all that domination from Barca in the first half, only 1 goal was scored. They missed their chance.
Xavi made it impossible to hold the ball. Total failure bringing those players while taking out the work horses. Guiu instead of Ferran maybe Romeu instead of Felix or Gundogan or Cancelo. But Gavi and Fermin are real work horses
Given the injuries and the average age of players in Barcelona’s side I think Xavi pull out a tremendous tactical structure, watching the game I felt they had everything under control, had more and clear chances and were the aggressive side until the 70th min. Because when Valverde went back they became extremely defensive and the turn overs well controlled. I think this will be an important lesson for all of them young players and Xavi included, the subs didn’t work well and controlling is one think but the resolution in front of the goal is what makes you win.
Your challenge is the best football tactic analysis channel
Big up to Xavi though😊 barca have tactically come along way since 2022❤
Couldn’t agree more.
and lost to their biggest rival
@@vishalsewratan-yz7eu So? Missing 4 starters due to injury, especially of the caliber of Pedri and Frenkie, Xavi's young, comparatively inexperienced team took the game to an expensively put together Madrid till about 60 mins. Sure, Madrid deserved to win due to their clinical display. But no manager could do much better than Xavi yesterday, given the absurd injury situation the club currently is in. If RM struggled against the pressing of this underdog Barca, just wait for a full-strength one in the next Clasico. Good luck.
@@cassanovablitz11 the worst excuse i am a barca fan but if somethings dont go i will speak in big games xavi tactics disapear your telling me that xavi is all we've got
@@vishalsewratan-yz7euso what we played better . our forwards can't find the net that's it don't blame xavi for everything yes his subs aren't good but considering the situation we can't afford another injury.we won hattrick classico last season with less squad depth. As a fan i am happy with the performance not with the result.. We produced more xg than any other club in top 5 . The thing is that we didn't convert our chances it's not upto xavi it's upto players
Love you bro keep up ❤️
More than Joelu, Modric changed and influenced the game way more.
It was a game of two halfs. Barca came out swinging from the start, then madrid composed itself in the second half and slammed barca to the ground. Simply put xavi came into the game with a better game plan, but it was ancelotti who was the better tactician in the end as he adjusted his team well and finally allowed Jude to have his shots.
Lol
Well said.
as a madrid fan barca had a better game yesterday, they could have closed it early on in first half but missed chances, but we got momentum in the second half got more spaces there weren't more pressing so if you give us space and time there you are end up on the losing side of the score, you have to play the perfect game and kill us off early on to win it or defend too well for us to score.
Good take mate. RM are a dangerous team that can switch up a few gears in key moments. They need to be killed when they are down and Barca failed in that due to lack of clinical finishers. Tactically Barca was better yesterday, but RM's better individual quality on field outshone them in the 2nd half. As a Barca fan, it's good to see the performances Xavi is putting together with a bunch of very young players.
Keep going going
Good analysis but Kroos and Camaving didn't play together.
Lol you didn't even bother to switch Kroos to Modrić when you brought Joselu to the tactical board 😂 Joselu and Kroos didn't play together in this match.
Because he is cluless . I really dont understand why people go to his channel for game analysis
@@dannyt1705 since you’re a genius why don’t you make your channel and teach people 😂😂😂
Because i dont want to smfh . I dont need to have the yt channel to recognize when some doesnt know what they are talking about , and just because someone have a yt channel it absolutelly doesnt mean they know what they are talking about . Go sit down somwhere kid . @@Barcelona2003
Bellingham’s unique wide midfielder/10 role allowed him to use his energy to defend the left flank when out of possession while allowing him to cut across and attack from the 10 position when in the final third.
Great analysis! . What is your assessment of Xavi subs. Did not make a lot of sense for many Barca supporters to get Romeu instead of Felix, Leva instead of Ferran and to play Yamal on the left side Overall felt ineffective changes that made real job easier and gave Bellingham more freedom
good analysis but incomplete as it did not go to details about Real Madrid tactics. I would rate Xavi a 6.5 and Anceloti 8 for tactics. Mainly because Anceloti's counter tactics to Xavi was always one step ahead. Anceloti knows his players and how to use them in different situations. Introduction of Modric was also very crucial decision by Don Carlo as it created numerical superiority when Barca were burned out. Great tactics, greater substitutions by Anceloti.
Can you post a video on bayer Leverkusen... Because they are playing so well in Bundesliga nowa days.... Xab Alonso's team is cooking well
We were destroying them i sincerely don't know why we lost, thank to this video maybe i'll understand it
A typical problem with Ancelotti’s Real Madrid. No one makes runs other than Vinicius. The games always start off the same way with very poor long balls to Vinicius and hoping he does something. Unbelievable how it keeps working out for Ancelotti.
Bellingham that's how. Madrid are a poor team and at some point the bubble will burst.
The problem with Ancelotti's Madrid since he came back, or Madrid in general since August of 2015 is that they don't have a clear playstyle. Zidane and Ancelotti both rely on moments of individualism to win games. This Madrid team has so much talent and potential yet they play like a team struggling not to get relegated. The only reason why it didn't look as bad back then was cause they a goal machine like Ronaldo, Bale (when he was fit), prime Benzema (2019-2022), and a strong bench (2016-2017).
@@cisco9281 I think that's what makes Carlo Ancelotti the best, he's more in touch with the human aspect of the game rather than the tactical side. He's been known to ask his players their own opinions on how to play before a UCL Final, how crazy is that? And he has said that if you have intelligent, mature players, you don't have to go too deep into the tactical side; just tell them what the team needs and how to do it, and they will. He has had some of the biggest legends in the game, Zidane, Maldini, Kaka, Cannavaro, Ronaldinho...and The Cristiano Ronaldo, can't go bigger than that. That sort of thing calms you down as a manager, and trust your players more.
@@cisco9281that's the most clueless comment I have seen. Ancelotti played the most beautiful football madrid has played in their history in 2015. He is just a practical manager and that's why he is the best manager in the world with 4 CL while making mid players like james, vini, kaka, etc. be the players in the world.
@@MMQQ-lf6tfmid players???
Good depth analisys for the first half, but I missed the same for the second, that was so different. Real Madrid controlled the game. No mention for Luka Modric???
Bellingham the comeback GOAT 😂
Can't do that against City
Bellingham got inspired by touchmeni’s shot. Probably got flashbacks to the shot he took in the World Cup and decided to have a crack at it.
A video on how to improve Barcelona more and Xavi’s improvement too as a Barca coach . Common we have to give Xavi credit ,man had won us La liga and copa de espania. Visca Barca !!!
Am very disappointed as a Barca fan Xavi don't understand how to control game management with the substitution.
So frustrating to watch the likes of fermin, ferran and felix wasting chances at the first half which where we peak most of the time. And then tuned down the intensity in the second half and gave Jude and modric (the X factor that we lack rn) a chance to shine. Props to gavi tho who pocketed Jude most of the match up until modric's subbed in.
Great analysis. Camavinga was the gane changer this time
FMS could you do a R De Zerbi tactical breakdown at brighton please?
to me it looks like Rodrygo and Vini are the problem, you can have one of these two but both make your midfield weak af. Thats why Valverde on the RW is so good for me, his defence and midfield knowledge way better.
There's no talk of "the problem" at Real Madrid. It's not Manchester United or something. Think of the game as a continuous process, not a discrete event.
Good analysis. I just dont get why you kept reiterating it was a back 5. Cancelo played as a RW for this match. It was a back 4 with Balde moving forward in offensive phase.
Barça were too passive after the 2nd half And Ter Stegen could've saved the first goal
Even the 2nd
Excuses. Just give madrid their credit. You can't expect barca to press the entire 90 minutes.
typical barca fan never give credit to real
typical barca fan never give credit to real
😂 no keeper would've saved that bullet and the second one, Modric did enough to shift the momentum of the ball causing the keeper to delay a bit 🔥 so Madrid was better🔥 we were better at the Second Half 😂👌🏾
carlo ahead bcoz of change , modric and camavinga... man management... super... which change the whole game..
props to madrid for changing the game and being more clinical
🎉 good game twas....😎
Iconic moment please 😊
I see people applauding bellingham,which is fair enough...however he was quiet the entire time until camavinga and modric came in,and especially camavinga who entirely changed madrid's structure ,making it versatile enough for bellingham to pop onto spaces and score.
We need a tactical look on super copa waIIopping!
Barcelona don't have enough match winenrs, they need some top class forwards.
I love ur explanations but I want to tell u that u should upgrade ur presentation with more professional and eye pleasing graphics.
Too bad you didn't highlight the role of Modric in moving the ball forward as he came on.
Xavi should had parked the bus after the 1st goal.. the high press in 1st half made the player tired in the second half and romeo cant play in big games easily manhandled under pressure moving gavi high up the field gave lot of room for bellingham
Real Madrid needs to paly with a real 9 instead of Rodrygo. Joselu helps with keeping the defenders busy which means that Bellingham and Valverde can attack from second line with more freedom.
While I personally lean more towards Real than Barca, I do want Barca to do well and funnily they're more likely to supply a majority of players for the team I'm really rooting for in the Spanish National team. Still I think it would be a welcomed change if a team like Girona ended up winning La Liga
It would be great if Romeu could be more aware of his surroundings too. in the middle of the game quite often he'd run to block a pass or cross without ever once looking behind him.
I think you’re missing a lot of the positional prowess Real Madrid possesses. Madrid players literally shapeshift mid game. You’ll often see alaba and rudiger in the final third. Valverde and camavinga are so excellent because they have the capability of playing box to box, and often times making up for the defense . Not to mention Bellingham being a midfielder but doing forward numbers. Real Madrid are on a different level tactically but everyone’s too fixated on the way Manchester city taught y’all how to play. UCL 15 here we come 💪🏼
Real Madrid had 5 midfielders when Camavinga came on and Xavi didn't adapt and also Barca stopped pressing in the second half
Camavinga should start every game at LB and Kroos is horrible against high pressing high intensity teams. Also we needed joselu from the beginning as a threat in the box at all times and keep Rodrigo wide. Vini needs to start playing football
I think the second half was quite even. I don't know why people are saying Madrid were better but what I know is that in that first half barça were so dominant. Even in the second half Barça played well just that Madrid were better than they were in the first half with both teams having phases of good football although it was still clear that barça's midfield is a very good one only thing is that in second half Madrid became more industrious in the counter, don't you think?
Man i am still waiting for the arsenal vs Man City analysis from you.
You are very much a Barcelona fan. How can a losing coach get it better tactically when one had his secret weapons in subs?
Barca are a crippled side with elite talent under Xavi, who has taken this job without having half the clue. But then the whole "I played for Barca", "Legend as a player" thing kicks in with nostalgia when he is not much better than Koeman. The fact that Barca played like a Simeone side with more possession after the first goal is being hailed as good football and what not tells how far the club has fallen.
Dude thats a very dumb comment. He didnt have frenkie on the pitch. He is the orchestrator of the play same how rodri with city. 5 starters injured so ofc it would be dumb to play the way he wanted to coz he wont be able to without those players. He had to change the setup. U need to understand football better if u think barca was going to run the game with only gundo gavi and fermin on the pitch. The team was phenomenal in 1st half. Got a goal and not a single chance for madrid. Now considering his bench players are already on the pitch,he doesnt have impactful players on the pitch,those who were good lacked match sharpness.
@@ashutoshshukla5362 Exactly the sort of comment a casual would make.
@@srijanpandey5238 understand the game first fool. A casual calling others' casual. U dont even see the insights and details bro. U r just blind. Just coz they are playing for barca doesnt mean any midfielder they would run the game. Check the profiles of players first.
There was a time when barca had the best manager in the world. When they had the best midfield in the world When they had the best player in the world When it was the best team in the world. What happened?
@@Nightmarionnette We didn't appreciate the process, Pep, Cruyff, etc. Went away from what made us great. Took to worshipping players, presidents, managers instead of critiquing the process and forcing the decision makers into accountability. Started demanding less and less, accepting mediocrity and making excuses. Where Barca are, we deserve it because majority of the fanbase are mostly Messi worshippers and daft to the core.
I'm quite surprise that Barcelona get that low xG even with shooting twice at the goalposts. The penalty on Araujo was the game changer of the game. At this point real at a chance to came back and do it well with Modric. Still very lucky second goal from Bellingham, the cross is bad, modric's control is failed that result in a perfect pass for the MVP.
you forgot the mention Modric, the Man literally changed the game.
the game changed after lewandowski was subbed in, the press was non existant after that point and real walked the ball into the midfield if they so pleased
It really made camavinga’s job easier
Xavi panicked and the way we defended in the first half was completely different to second half we were playing very tactical in the first half and then after 1-1 we were just too hungry for the goal while real were calm and patient
You should have mentioned Modric he was a game changer
bellingham is on fire🔥🔥🔥🔥
I hate individual brilliance wins
u forget about the big one. Modric factor. so its 6/10 analysis from me
Why is it changed in the 2e half? Look like the tactic of Ancelotti is way better, especially in the 2e half. All the more to bring someone like Bellingham and that is Vitor Roque. The sooner the better.
Xavi always makes Barca play like trash in 2nd half, happened so many times. I don't know what he does.
Having a seemingly flawless squad and still failing to out number the opponent in his own penalty area won't earn Xavi a 6.5,,,, Ancelloti made the right substitution at the right time so he deserves a 7(let's keep in mind he is playing without a proper striker)
Why did he forget Modric ? Who was the reason real had possession in the last 25 mins which led to scoring
Football in 2023 is all about momentum, Real utilises that really well.
Xavi got it right not until he made his useless substitutes. What would Raphinha, Lewandowski do in this game after a longtime out because of injury.....
Sorry man but you need to rewatch this and see how Modric changed the game. He allowed Tchou to play his natural position and helped progress the ball forward. Kroos was actually poor in my mind he slowed the ball progression and always needed a pass in order to be effective.
Madrid butuh gelandang yang proaktif seperti Modric
Xavi and barca tactically better overall, but yeah this is football. 2nd half sub give madrid more flexibility
Barca not Xavi. His changes made them lose
Carvajal was spon on
Goalingham crazy
Barca desperately needed De Jong and Pedri to keep madrid at bay by dominating the ball at the later stages
One name, Camavinga..... He brought was difference.
Playing against real is like playing with two managers
right, you've got The Carlo Ancelotti on the sidelines along with midfield generals-cum legends like Lukita or Kroos on the pitch.
I feel like Jude's coming has affected Vinucius a lot who used to be the main man for Real.
they're creating good combinations in the pitch, and they have a good relationship outside the pitch. So, you're wrong.
Gave away control with the subs and RM luck for the second goal, Barça always killing themselves.
💎🔥
What software is this tactical board?
Check description
barca should've won this game in the first half but lacked the finishing touch. having one less day of rest and barca's bench consisting of half injured players and half b teamers meant madrid could do some damage in the later part of the game. even then, it took a belli wonder strike and fluky 93rd minute goal to win against this tired and injured barcelona squad. i have no doubt, with a fully healthy squad barca wins easily.
