THE SYSTEM OF THREE CENTRALS

It also depends on each adversary, with a system of three centrals or four. It is true that in these games we have conceded, but in the same way that before how we defended was praised, now we must know that the whole team has to improve in the defensive phase, first we, the defenders, then the rest of the team.
