Every article: The Barcelona coaching staff corrected Rashford’s defensive problems and he performed well on the offensive end

"Daily Sports" wrote an article stating that Barcelona winger Rashford's performance on the offensive end has always been impeccable, but due to the team's wave of injuries, he was forced to take on a large amount of playing time, far exceeding the initial expectations as a "surprise player" in Raphinha's rotation.

It is understood that Rashford’s main flaw in the early days of joining was his concentration and intensity when running without the ball. Head coach Flick and his coaching staff are aware of this and have been giving him "intensive courses" to correct his small inattention or "power outage" in defensive tasks.

These efforts began to bear fruit in the game against Celta Vigo. Especially in the second half, Rashford and Yamal both showed great defensive sacrifice spirit, actively assisting in defense and retracement, changing the situation where the two wings were under pressure in the first half.

Specifically, Rashford was repeatedly observed dropping back into his own penalty area and completing several key tackles to support Balde. Flick required him to have this spirit of sacrifice, not only to run, but also to drop back to assist the full-back to avoid a 2-on-1 situation.

As Raphinha is about to return, Rashford is showing his qualifications to continue to be the main force through this kind of defensive investment.
