In this latest episode of the Managing Madrid Podcast, hosts Kiyan Sobhani and Mehedi Hassan delve into France’s recent clash with Austria during the Euro 2024 group stage. The conversation touches on several key points, including individual performances, team dynamics, and tactics. Here’s a detailed recap of their discussion.

France’s Performance: Areas for Improvement

Kiyan and Mehedi begin by analyzing France’s overall performance, noting that while the team secured a win, there are notable areas for improvement. They highlight that France struggled with vertical passing in midfield, a critical component that was missing in their game against Austria. Also some notes on lineups and defense.

Austria Under Rangnick

Rangnick’s influence was evident in Austria’s pressing and build-up structure. The crew discusses.

Underlying Analytics

The podcast delves into the underlying analytics of the match, offering a deeper understanding of the game’s flow and key moments. Lots of data visual analysis is involved.

France’s Midfield Dynamics

A significant part of the conversation centers on France’s midfield. With Tchouameni not starting, France lacked a player who could effectively distribute the ball vertically and connect the defense with the attack.

Performances: Mbappe and Camavinga

Kylian Mbappe’s performance was a focal point of the discussion. Kiyan and Mehedi analyzed his impact on the game, noting his ability to create chances and his relentless drive. They also speculated on what Mbappe will bring to Real Madrid, with both hosts excited about his potential move and the dynamism he could add to Los Blancos.

Eduardo Camavinga’s performance off the bench was another highlight. Camavinga brought energy and had two important defensive interventions.

Are Germany the Favourites?
