Approaching the hour, Pochettino changed the problem.
Caicedo stopped charging at Demien. He stayed deeper, protecting Bruno and McTominay, while Palmer tried to press Demien from behind whenever he received.
Demien noticed it on his very next touch. He felt Palmer arriving at his back before he saw him.
He didn't turn into it.
He protected the ball with his body, let Palmer come closer, and laid it off to Shaw before moving into a new passing lane.
「TRAIT ACTIVATED」 「Press Resistant」
Shaw returned it. Palmer had overrun Demien's new position, and now Caicedo had a decision to make: leave Bruno and step forward, or let Demien have the ball facing forward.
Demien waited.
Caicedo came.
Demien released Bruno the moment he did.
United were through again. Bruno found Garnacho on the left, and Garnacho went at James before whipping a low ball toward Højlund. Disasi got a foot to it first and put it behind for another corner.
