In this video, we explain Roger Schmidts philosophy and tactics during his Liga NOS time at Benfica. Our tactical analysis examines his preferred systems and unveils what his pressing principles look like.
Under Roger Schmidt, Benfica have been one of the most exciting teams to watch in the 2022/23 season. Since taking over in July, the German manager won all of his first nine matches. With dominant tactics, Schmidt has brought back stability and success after a turbulent season at the Estádio da Luz. Consequently, despite being drawn into a very difficult group with Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain, Benfica may prove to be one of the dark horses of this season’s UEFA Champions League. Nationally, they sit at the top of the Primeira Liga as one of the favourites to win the title.
