The former midfielder of Madrid's "Real" team, Toni Kroos, shared his thoughts on the difficulties the team faced last season. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He stated that defending as a whole is very important for the team. If this is done, there will be more strength and opportunities to regain the ball.
Otherwise, they will constantly have to chase after the opponent. It becomes difficult to implement pressing because the opponent breaks this pressing, and retreating deeper into defense is not usual for the team.
This is considered the main problem of "Real" last season. Additionally, in June, Xabi Alonso was appointed as the head coach of "Real," replacing the previous coach Carlo Ancelotti.
The team is striving to achieve new heights under the leadership of the new head coach. According to Toni Kroos, establishing a cohesive defensive system within the team and applying pressure on the opponent is an important task.
These factors will serve as a foundation for the team's future successes.
