""I can't bypass the fact that you keep on letting people go and run at your goal. If you're a team now, if you didn't do your due diligence that Barcelona play a high line and you don't make the late run ... Late runs. You can go and do it every single time!""
""You don't just defend the ball when there is no pressure on it, and you let people run left and right, and then they have chances left and right every single time. That's not really something that you want to do. You're supposed to erase mistakes, not create them yourself.""
The team repeatedly allows opponents to run at the goal, creating chances by defending the ball instead of protecting the goal. Barcelona's high defensive line can be exploited by late runs if those runs are not tracked or matched. Defenders fail to make necessary late runs and leave space for opponents to attack from left to right. Allowing uncontrolled movement and defending only the ball produces repeated opportunities for the opposition. Defending should remove errors rather than generate them, and better positioning and responsibility are required to prevent unnecessary suffering.
