Quick Transition to Defend Inside the Penalty Area A
In this situation Man City
are building up play from
the goalkeeper.
The centre back
Otamendi receives and
carries the ball forward.
He is closed down by
Neymar and passes
forward to Sterling (7).
Sterling (7) takes a bad
touch and the ball is
intercepted by Busquets
(5). Busquets (5) passes
to Rakitic, who passes to
Suarez (9).
Man City now need to
make a quick transition
from attack to defence.
Suarez passes to Neymar.
Zabaleta (5), Sterling (7)
and Otamendi (30) all
move quickly to close
down the new ball carrier
(Neymar) who dribbles
forward with the ball. The
other Man City players
quickly track back, with 5
players in total defending
inside the penalty area.
Neymar attempts a low
cross - Kolarov has moved
across and clears the ball
towards Aguero.
This is an example of a
successful transition from
attack to defence for Pep
Guardiola's Man City
