Tuchel unveils varied tactics: Vinicius vs Rodrygo
Thomas Tuchel, Bayern Munich’s manager, addressed the slight contrasts between Real Madrid’s Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo, illustrating their separate duties despite their identical places on the field.
While Rodrygo has taken on a more central role this season, similar to a false 9, Vinicius has the ability to roam between the left wing and central zones, capitalizing on his superb one-on-one talents.
“Vini and Rodrygo are both good but also different,” he said, as quoted by FC Bayern TV.
“Rodrygo scores a lot of decisive goals, he did it against me at Chelsea. Vinicius is often on the left where he dribbles, is very good at shooting and very clinical. Rodrygo also has incredible pace and also plays as the centre-forward at times.”
Tuchel reflected on Karim Benzema’s essential contribution for Madrid, particularly in crucial occasions such as their match against Chelsea in the 2021/22 season, when Tuchel was in charge of the Blues.
Since his departure, Madrid has tried an array of techniques, including using Jude Bellingham, notably as a false 9.
Tuchel, on the other hand, noted that essential players like as Toni Kroos, Luka Modric, and Vinicius remain to be important to Madrid’s plan, indicating continuity amid tactical changes.
As Bayern prepares for the Champions League semi-finals against Real Madrid, Tuchel stressed the need of striking a delicate balance against Madrid’s fearsome list.
