Servette has developed an interesting tactic this season that revolves around the midfield triangle of D. Douline, T. Cognat, and D. Bronn. These three players exhibit remarkable synergy, allowing the team to control the game and outsmart opponents. In the last match against Lausanne-Sport, it was striking how often they could regain possession in key zones and apply pressure on the opposition.
A key feature of their playstyle is constant rotation. Position switches often occur, creating confusion in the opposing defenses. The excitement from the spectators was palpable as the players executed these movements with a high level of understanding for the tactical scheme. The dynamic between D. Douline and T. Cognat is particularly noteworthy, as they consistently involve each other in attacks.
Interestingly, this tactic relies heavily on the protection provided by J. Frick. The goalkeeper serves not just as security but also plays a crucial role in building the play. In almost every attack, he is actively involved, showcasing the team's deep trust in him. If they continue to play as successfully as this, a spot in the upper echelons of the league is guaranteed.
