BG with one striker allows +1 between Martinez and De Ligt, which allows the RWB to join the frontline.

3⃣ Details make a difference

Defender gets his leg in front of Rasmus' right leg and thereby fouls him.

Arm is over Højlund's shoulder and he is fouled.

Elbow technique = defender can only pull the shirt
Leg placement = Rasmus has rolled him

2⃣

Defender's arm is not locked (elbow technique)

Right leg could be used as a screen here (already stepping towards the ball) to prevent a touch

Defender is rolled, but still has a chance because Højlund doesn't create the barrier

1⃣

Side-on orientation with the arm OVER the opponent's arm

Balance leaning slightly too much into opponent (shoulders should be above feet, knees low).

In this situation, Højlund should LOCK his elbow over the opponent's arm and then PUSH down to ROLL the defender.

There's not much to get out of public training videos except for surface level circuits/rondos/drills.

What I did expect and do like about Amorim is that he is timing the session himself in typical (?) Portuguese fashion

+ the integrated sprints with risk/reward (lose the ball = 50m sprint)
