Since the appointment of the new coach at the beginning of the season, Lugano has undergone an impressive tactical evolution. One of the most noticeable changes is the flexibility of the 4-3-3 system, which is now regularly employed.
In recent matches, it has become clear how important Ahmadou Ndiaye has been in stabilizing the midfield. He often plays deeper to operate both defensively and offensively. This allows the wingers H. Mahmoud and M. Bottani to push forward and challenge the opposing defense. Offensive strategies The offensive tactics have also shifted. Lugano is now pursuing more aggressive pressing patterns that force opponents' defenders into uncomfortable positions. In the match against FC Chiasso, the team was particularly successful, quickly regaining possession, which led to several scoring opportunities.
Looking at the stats, the results are impressive. Lugano has scored a total of 20 goals in the last nine matches, marking a significant increase compared to last season. The team is not only better organized but also more creative in the final third.
Lugano displays a newfound confidence under the new coach. Instead of being defensively oriented, they have developed the courage to be proactive in their attacking play. The lingering question is how sustainable this tactic will be and whether it can hold against stronger opponents.
