Does Czechia Have a Plan B?
ESPN’s Sunaadh Sagar wrote more on how ‘Czechia’s lack of a Plan B might backfire’ on them.
“Czechia reached the World Cup with a set formula — use their physicality to score from set-pieces and keep it compact in defence.
For 66 minutes in their World Cup opener against South Korea, that strategy was perfect, as Krejcí scored the opening goal from Coufal’s throw-in. The limitations of this style of play came to the fore in the next 14 minutes as South Korea scored twice as Czechia faded.
Miroslav Koubek doesn’t have the personnel to really change things, although he could use two strikers instead of just Schick leading the line. Sulc might have more space to operate in given South Africa will be without their best defensive midfielder, and that could be Czechia’s best route to goal.”
