Interactive football tactics scenario
Use the blue magnets to decide how Real Madrid should protect the right side against Barcelona's left-wing threat. Reveal the model only after building your own answer.
Real Madrid are blue. Barcelona are red.
Arrange Madrid to defend the wide threat without leaving the centre open. Decide whether the right-back steps out, the winger tracks back, or a midfielder slides across.
One simplified solution
The wide midfielder drops alongside the right-back, while the nearest central midfielder slides across to protect the half-space. The two centre-backs remain narrow enough to defend runs through the middle.
The exact names and shape vary from one Clásico to another. This reveal is a teaching model for controlling the flank without opening a direct route into the penalty area.
