Yamal at 16 tracking back on the defensive end against Kylian but Kylian not tracking back for Yamal tells you everything you need to know about this young superstar. He was there whenever his team needed him today brilliant from the youngster.
Wait till yamal becomes a superstar and he will start walking on the pitch whenever his team loses possession, they all do it, mbappe messi ronaldo salah neymar ...
@@Treck99 he practically is he outplayed an experienced french midfield at 16 rabiot got subbed off because he could not handle him... they could not contain him that is what makes him so special players like bellingham are insane talents but can be stopped since other teams can just foul him all game teams cant even get near yamal most the game
I know Yamal gets all the headlines but the whole tournament I thought Fabian Ruiz has been such a great conduit in transitioning from defence to attack, whoever makes it to the final they really need to focus on him and Rodri because both of them are absolutely bossing the midfield for Spain.
Him and Olmo are playing absolutely out of their minds... Spain is so good for a reason, and thats their midfield, Rodri, the best Defnsive Mid right now, Fabian great ball control and skills, and Olmo who is the offensive one. That trio is insane
Cucurella playing with absolute heart out there every game , that’s what makes a defender a good defender imo . When you look at van dijk he doesn’t like to get dirty
Maybe I was just spoiled rotten by Xavi, iniesta and Sergio but some of his and rodri's passes in certain situations annoyed me...I don't care if the right pass is intercepted but blatantly making wild aimless passes in a Spanish midfield is diabolical
A rare intelligent comment. People only notice the attacking players but it's the unsung players like Fabian Ruiz who make the team tick. I didn't mention Rodri cause he is very well known. But he is also the engine of the team.
This is why I love UA-cam. You just don’t get this brilliant insightful analysis from the mainstream. Can you imagine Richards, Ferdinand or Lineker coming up with this stuff. They’re not worthy of you Adam. And you’re a Newcastle fan. What a man…. Big respect pal…..
@@joangg +10000 ... somehow they have rich a pint where they convine the most boring questions, with the most stupid questions with the most offensive to the players or fans questions at once... it is like if they dont care about the sport at all
Hopefully Spain win. They’ve put up performance after performance with amazing attacking play. It would jsut be sad if anyone else won because no other team has looked close to as good
Spain have so many great technicians, they're a nightmare match up in midfield. Seen it twice now, Rodri man marked out of the game, but Olmo and Ruiz have the intelligence and ability to drop and progress the play. Don't see how England or Netherlands handle them.
The fact that Jesus Navas is more than twice the age of Lamine Yamal and played as a WINGER during his prime years makes it even funnier that Mbappe couldn't score past him.
Hey man these videos are really helping me understand the game more, from thinking they’re slow and boring, to appreciating the gameplay and tactics. Thanks!
I'm an England fan but I genuinely want Spain to win this - they've played proper, technically beautiful footie from day one, and the manager is not afraid to change things up or make tactical changes mid game.. Brilliant team and coach
At just 16 I think he might be the most mature player of the tournament. Whenever someone put pressure on him in interviews, he always responded in a very mature way like with the German coach where he responded in an interview and the same for Rabiot where Lamine posted a very intelligent quote. Lamine has been crucial not only for Spain these euros, but also for the entertainment and maturity he’s showed throughout this tournament.
Honestly, the bath gown is kinda dope! Like, you're forever trapped inside the 442 prison and actually chilling lol. Add a towel turban and a glass or martini and cucumber face mask and we're set!
Spain have been the best footballing team at this tournament and once they beat Germany they don't have any rivals who have played better. It is also very attractive football with the emphasis on attacking. I love watching Nico Williams take on players!!! I think this is the frustration for England fans, is that they would really like them to play this type of football and they have players capable of it. But GS has a completely different model of playing. The clash is between his more defensive style and the fans' desire for a type of play that reflects the current EPL @adamclery - are you a former player?
Top 3 best things from 2024 Euros so far: 3. Yamal's semi final goal 2. Bellingham's 90+ minute bicycle kick to keep England in the tournament 1. Adam's post-match analysis videos
I'm a Pom in Australia who has drifted away from the game for 19 years (Gillingham fan, who can blame me?) but have loved these Euro breakdowns to keep me up to date. Time to get some sleep and catch the semi on a dodgy stream later ...
@@kimmykolaa 150 if they win In 2010 I put £50 on them winning cos I had their euro 08 shirt and ther 2010 wasn't v different so I put the price of a new shirt on the. Winning it and got 250
They focused on Mbappé immediately after Yamal's goal and the expression on his face seemed to indicate "Nice goal". Priceless. You could probably use that in future videos. Another great video. 😁
Ah, was wondering why you were doing your best impression of The Dude from The Big Lebowski. 🤣🤣 Lamine Yamal is a gem of a player also because of his mental and emotional maturity in games. Pressure doesn't seem to faze him. Almost always makes the right decision when it comes to passing, dribbling, crossing or cutting back. Drops back to cover his defender. Hopefully he stays scary as he matures.
RODRI after the match (tldr: everyone will remember the goal, but his defensive work was outstanding): “People will hold on to the goal, that sudden starring moment from a kid who is 16. And you have to have enormous quality to be able to do that, and doing it in a semi-final speaks to the player he is, the incredible future he has. Very few players can do that,” Rodri insisted. “But I hold on to his defensive commitment, the support he gave teammates, how he closed off spaces, the oxygen he gave us. How complete his game was … and I told him that personally … chapeau.”
Rodri praised Yamal not because his amazing goal, but because his willingness to track back and defend. This is what Spain needed against Mbappe, who by the way, is totally missing in Yamal's goal. Mbappe likes to score, but he is only half a player compared to Yamal.
Yamal is just that special player. I have noticed that there is a rise in this generation of players, including yamal, Maiono, Gernacho, among others. The next decade of football is gonna be special.
Oh, for god sake, thank you so much! I'm not really keen on football although sometimes I'm interested in, but I didn't understand how consistent and strong was the approach to the match from Spain until your brilliant explanation. Thank you again for explaining the foundations of the successful play of Spain Team because it takes this brilliant but individual goals further than the inspiration of a single player.
😂😂😂 Congrats Spain, Four-Four-Two didn't have to become stressed to break this match down. But tomorrow, Four-Four-two will be "tweaking" while watching England vs Netherlands, good luck England.😂😂😂
For me Rodri not having many passes forward is more due to Spain chososing to keep possession over really attacking especially on the break during the 2nd half in particular, they were basically killing off the game by keeping the ball, thus the many sideway rodri passes.
No wonder there are lots of own goals recently, the fact that these days a shot deflection immediately counted as own goal, really makes the own goal very common now.
I completely agree with your analysis about Giroud, he could've made the difference if only Deschamps weren't so shy about making replacements during the game
It does make me think of when Walcott went to the WC/EC and was never used. Could he have been a Yamal at that time instead of just being the gimmick he overall turned out to be. For clarification im talking about the potential Walcott had as a 16/17 yr old not how he turned out!
Yamal: 16 yrs 362 days, leading Spain to the finals of the Euros. Me: 16 yrs 6 days, highest keepy-uppies record is 7. Can I become better than Yamal in 356 days guys? Can't be that hard right.
Lamine/Mbappe will be the best players of the decade, but the 2024 Player of the year is no other than Rodri. Yet, shockingly, he won't get it just like Busquets never did, often because there were some good reasons (Messi, CR); but now they unashamedly want to sell us Vinicius, fgs...
my friend was yelling at me saying because i've never played soccer that i dont know anything because he said it was cucarella's fault on the goal, but i said it wasnt because the centerback is supposed to be guarding kolo muani. He said that it was cucarella's guy. Watched the replay and lo and behold the CB has him man marked and then lets him slip and cucarella is magically supposed to cover him and dembele at his short stature. felt so vindicated
Yamal is great but its not just him carrying Spain to the final. All the players are showing great football, great teamwork and no one is acting like a Diva or thinking he is better than his team mates.
How does France get off thinking they're going to play a 4-3-3 without having their wingers drop in to defend against a team with the most dynamic wingers in the tournament? Absolutely absurd. I just can't get my mind around it.
How do you get this data? I’m new to these in depth analysis when it comes to football. Is there an automatic way of extracting this from video of the match or is this all manually annotated??
Your vids are great, but I was really disappointed that your free downloadable wall chart for the Euros had mistakes in it- dates were wrong, and the path for winners for matches on certain sides of the bracket werent labelled properly and as such led to confusion filling it in and in some cases incorrect match-ups.

Amazingly good thanks. I’m watching this on Friday to see what thoughts arise re England Spain. One, they are up against good tacticians. Two, there is a way of choking Rodri. And three, Spain have a future ballon d’or in Yamal. He’s gonna give someone the runaround on Sunday, who will it be?
