Give respect! Juventus plans to adopt a two-player tactic for Modric at the age of 40
According to the "Milan Sports Daily", Juventus coach Tudor plans to conduct a two-man defense against Modric in the next match against Milan.
Tudor seems to be planning a set of tactics against Modric to limit the midfield master's performance in the next round of Serie A.
Given the huge influence Modric has brought to Milan at present, it is completely understandable that Juventus wants to focus on limiting him. But the problem is that it is not easy to do this. After all, many coaches have tried it before, but none of them have succeeded.
According to the Milan Sports Daily, Tudor's response plan is to conduct a two-person cooperative defense against Modric. The key figure among them is Ilditz, who will be asked to "interference" with Modric's first touch, that is, to destroy Modric's catch rhythm as much as possible.
McKennie will then be responsible for cutting off Modric's connection with other players, whether it's blocking his pass line or limiting his space to organize his offense. If McKennie's form does not meet expectations before the game, K-Turam may be sent to replace the role.
It is worth noting that Tudor has actually tried similar strategies this season. At that time, in the game against Inter Milan, he arranged for Ildiz to focus on restricting Carhanoglu, but the latter scored two goals instead. This game also shows that this strategy may not necessarily work.
Therefore, this time Tudor is likely to ask Ilditz to put more energy and sacrifice on the defensive end, which also means that he may have some restrictions on the offensive end.
