The 4-4-2 Formation makes Pioli ‘Elevate’ AC Milan

DBasia.news –  AC Milan appeared neatly using the 4-4-2 formation, which is now Stefano Pioli’s mainstay. Milan itself has gained two consecutive wins using this formation. Thursday (1/16/2020) AM local time, hosting SPAL at the San Siro, Stefano Pioli’s team won 3-0.

AC Milan appeared powerful with a 2-0 lead in the first round. Two goals scored by Krzyzstof Piatek and Samu Castillejo. Theo Hernandez then perfected the host’s victory in the second round.

After the match, Stefano Pioli said this result was obtained because of a new concept in the game he applied. If at the beginning of his arrival he relied on a 4-3-2-1 formation, now the coach chooses a 4-4-2 scheme which is considered more suited to the strength of the team.

“The position on the ground is never static, it’s all about the space you occupy and we need to close all the fields at the right time. We often did it today and created many goal scoring opportunities, “Pioli said as reported by Italian Football, Thursday (1/16/2020).

“Besides the game system, like it or not, what matters is the concept in the game. We make wing-backs more forward to create excellence in that sector. It is very important that we play with intensity. This method makes players more comfortable playing with the ball, “he added.

The results of this morning became AC Milan’s second successive win. Previously, they also won in Serie A against Cagliari, also using the 4-4-2 formation.
