After dominating the league for the last few seasons, Bodo/Glimt are finally beaten to the crown by Molde who have dominated the 2022 Eliteserien. Although they have had a disappointing season where they were eliminated from the Champions League as well as from the Europa League, they have found and unearthed a gem of talent in the form of the 19-year-old, Joel Mugisha.
The teenager has featured well for the former champions this season and has been one of the bright sparks for them in a disappointing title defence. This scout report in the form of a tactical analysis focuses on the strengths and weakness of Mugisha as a player and provides a tactical overview of him and how he contributes to Bodo/Glimts tactics. Let’s begin the analysis.
Player Profile
Joel Mugisha is a 19-year-old winger who plays on the right wing for Bodo/Glimt in their 4-3-3 system. He has also featured as a left-winger for his side but has predominantly been deployed on the right wing. This is due to his ability to use both of his feet to a good extent which we will look into in detail in this analysis. We can see his action map in the image below which shows more activity on the right flank.
In Bodo/Glimt’s system, he likes to receive the ball very wide which can be seen in the image below which shows the location where he generally receives the ball from his teammates.
