We're hours away from
#STAGiving
Day! 📣
This annual tradition has helped support our students for the last decade—and on March 20, we get to do it all again! Watch what we can do when Stags come together for One Day. One Fairfield.
Speed round food hot takes:
1 - Honey Nut Cheerios = great dessert
2 - American = best cheese for burger
3 - the great white lemon shark ice cream skippy jawn = best ice cream to hit the streets
1. Agüero’s delight - Pep simplified Agüero’s defensive role. Run towards the CB on the ball. Once the CB frees the ball, stay there. Less running = happy Sergio.
2. NOT up in here! - Sané/Sterling’s bent pressing runs aimed at taking away Liverpool’s threat up the flanks and Wijnaldum’s ability to overload in their build out.
4. F v F – Fernandinho’s presence in midfield made it difficult for Firmino to drop down and receive into feet, simultaneously providing balance for the backline who was constantly concerned about the speed of Salah/Mané in behind.
5. Compression – around the 22 second mark watch how City slowly take away Liverpool’s space to operate (forward compression). Around the 30 second mark watch how Sterling tucks dramatically into central midfield (lateral compression).
Incredibly grateful for the immense support our student-athletes have received on
#STAGiving
Day. Fairfield University and our Friends of Fairfield Men’s Soccer are truly special!
