Xabi Alonso: Real defenders are required to be active

The head coach of the "Real" team, Xabi Alonso, has expressed more clearly the demands he expects from the players in the defense line. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

According to Alonso, as the team progresses, defenders need to step up on the field and increase their activity. Their movements must be decisive and aggressive.

Defenders should apply pressure on the opponent and prevent them from initiating attacks. He emphasized the importance of constantly disrupting the opponent's game and strategy without hesitation during the match.

According to Alonso, this is a key factor in the team's success. On Monday, the "Real" team defeated "Juventus" 1-0, advancing to the quarter-finals of the Club World Championship.

There, the team led by Xabi Alonso will face the German club "Borussia." The activity and determination shown in defense will be crucial for achieving success in the quarter-finals.

Additionally, the coach pointed out that the team's defense should not be limited to just defending, but must also actively participate in controlling the game. This approach is considered essential for the team's overall tactics and success in the game.
