Pep Guardiola -The Genius in Simplicity

In the words of Jesse Marsch: “Success is the sum of details”. Pep Guardiola is probably the most obsessed coach about every small details of his team. Here he is exploiting one of the football defensive basics for his own team. As a defender, if the striker will receive the ball and he is facing his own goal, you should press him and not let him turn towards your goal. But Pep Guardiola is using that to score goals, simply with awarness and teach his player to think 2-3 steps forward. “The opponents can be quicker, stronger, taller than you, but if you think quicker than them and plan ahead, you will win and they’ll never catch you” -Xavi Hernandez-
