What went wrong in the first half for Amorim was mainly the confusion in the defensive organization and responsibilities. His new system requires the right and left centre-backs to push up high to win the ball in midfield, but other players seemed unsure of their roles in those moments. This led to Bodo/Glimt exploiting the gaps left in the defense, resulting in two quick goals for the Norwegian side. Additionally, there was a lack of coordination and communication in the defensive transitions, allowing Bodo/Glimt to capitalize on the spaces left behind. However, Amorim showed adaptability by making tactical adjustments in the second half, bringing on Diogo Dalot and reverting to a back four to address the defensive issues and secure the win.
