  • MidEdgar — dive: wait for the cooldown, then take the back line
  • Right laneRico — skirmish: trade hits and finish the low target

  1. 0–5sWin the first midfield touch; do not shoot from range.
  2. 5–10sPush one flank and keep a passer in the middle.
  3. 10–15sUse the wall bounce only when the keeper is out.
  4. 15–20sAfter a goal, reset to your half before pressing.

Comeback: One clean push is enough: hold the ball, wait for the rebound and shoot from close range.
