Above is a snapshot of Crotone’s defense dealing with a fast break.

In this scenario, the centre backs remain bizarrely pressed together,

allowing the opposition yards of space on the wings. Hakan Çalhanoğlu

and Rebić are particularly adept at creating chances on counter attacks similar

to this; the pair often combine on the left side, allowing the Croatian internati

onal to look to shoot from inside the box. The pace of Milan’s midfield should allow

them to spark several fast breaks, giving the duo opportunities to expose Crotone’s backline when it is at its weakest.
