How to replicate Jürgen Klopp’s “Gegenpress” in FIFA 21?

Gegenpressing is undoubtedly one of the most popular playstyles in football. International teams like Germany, England, and Football Clubs like Liverpool, Borussia Dortmund follow this playstyle a lot.

“Gegenpressing” means “counter-pressing” in German. This amazing playstyle got popular because of Jürgen Klopp, one of the best football managers in the world. Klopp used this tactic with Borussia Dortmund and Liverpool and it worked pretty well when it comes to counter the counter-attack.

Gegenpressing lets you win back the ball nearer to the goal. It’s only one pass away from a really good opportunity. No playmaker in the world can be as good as a good Gegenpressing situation, and that’s why it’s so important.
