Formation

The team lines up in a fluid 4-3-1-2 formation. The goalkeeper is Italy’s shot-stopper Gianluigi Bufoon. The centre-back pairing of Ashley Williams and Bonucci ensure that the defensive unit is solid while the German full-backs Hector and Kimmich provide energy and width on the flanks.

The star-studded midfield is packed with talent and creativity. We have Pogba, Payet and Sanches manning the three man-midfield followed by Wales’ Aaron Ramsey who plays in the hole, just behind th forwards.

The front two consists of Wales striker Hal Robson-Kanu and Frenchman Antoine Griezmann The manager for this team will be Chris Coleman. The Wales manager deserves a lot of credit for master-minding Wales’ stunning win over Belgium.
