Understanding the Tactical Evolution of Bragantino Under Caxinha

The analysis of a football team's performance often leads to fascinating parallels between coaching styles and tactical setups. In the recent discussion surrounding Bragantino, the spotlight falls on Caxinha's approach, likened to Pep Guardiola’s yet distinctively his own.

Caxinha’s Tactical Setup

Caxinha's system can be closely scrutinized through the lens of traditional formations. The discussion started with the mention of a classic 4-2-3-1 setup. In this formation, the team adopts a solid four-man defense, with a pair of central midfielders providing both defensive cover and facilitating attacks. Notably, Soteldo's role is highlighted; he often drifts to the left flank to exploit his cutting ability.
