At the debut of Jorge Jesus at the helm of Flamengo, the indication for his "Offensive Line" at the Moment of Defensive Organization (1st Phase) was to pressure the opponents in order to force them to play a long ball.
As we can see in the video, this indication has often endangered the Flamengo team itself since their "Defensive Line" had difficulties in controlling the long ball.
Knowing that opponents want to play from behind, will it not be advantageous to give them the freedom to play from the back and then try to recover the ball near the opposing goal (closer to the goal)?
