Since the arrival of their new coach, Atlas's tactical evolution has been notable. With a renewed focus, a more cohesive playing system prioritizing possession and quick attacks has been implemented. In a world where football constantly evolves, Atlas has adapted to avoid falling behind.
The new scheme features a 4-3-3 formation, offering flexibility and a solid midfield where figures like F. Leiva have found their ideal spots. This change has allowed Atlas to better control the tempo of the game. With the ability to regain balls quickly and advance as a unit, results have been tangible in their recent performances.
An analysis of the last matches reveals that Atlas has increased its average possession to 60% and seen a rise in offensive opportunities compared to the previous season. A prime example was the match against San Lorenzo, where they drew 3-3; the intensity of the game showcased the new approach.
However, there are still areas for improvement. Coordination between defense and attack sometimes leaves much to be desired, which could lead to problems in tight matches. Nonetheless, with time, the coach is working to perfect this style. The combination of young and veteran players could be the key for Atlas to reach its full potential.
