TUCHEL'S 3 TACTICAL ERRORS IN CHELSEA'S UCL LOSS

Here’s a breakdown of Tuchel’s key decisions that contributed to Chelsea’s defeat:

1. Defensive Strategy Backfired:

Issue: Tuchel opted for a passive approach, allowing Real Madrid to dominate possession (58% in the first half).
Impact: This strategy overloaded the defense and goalkeeper, leading to constant pressure and ultimately, fatigue. Real Madrid took 19 shots, 11 in the second half as Chelsea retreated further.

2. Lack of In-Game Adjustments:

Issue: Tuchel didn’t adapt his tactics despite clear struggles from players like Joshua Kimmich against Vinicius Junior. and Pavlovic’s overall performance.
Impact: Sticking with the initial plan allowed Real Madrid to exploit weaknesses and gain momentum.

3. Suboptimal Substitutions:

Issue: The second-half substitutions, particularly replacing Kane and Musiala with Choupo-Moting and Muller, stifled Chelsea’s attack.
Impact: These changes offered little offensive threat and allowed Real Madrid to seize control of the game. Muller’s minimal impact (6 touches in 14 minutes) exemplifies the missed opportunity.
