We have already said it countless times: Juan Carlos Osorio handles the Mexican National Team like a Rubik's Cube. The Colombian coach is capable of changing the team's face with a simple move, adapting it to the demands of the game at a given time. This makes the Tri an indiscernible team for their opponents.

Throughout his term, Osorio has tested a series of tactical arrangements that allow Mexico to be prepared for any scenario. And in that aspect, Miguel Layun is one of the most valuable elements of the Mexican team, as he has the ability to adapt to any role on the field and modify the Tri's structure.

WHAT IS BEST FOR MEXICO IN GERMANY VS KOREA

Mexico, Sweden, Korea, Germany

The Sevilla full-back gave an extraordinary display of versatility in the victory against South Korea, for the second match of Group F. Just like against Germany, Miguel Arturo started as a right midfielder and not only offered alternatives in attack by constantly combining with Carlos Vela, but also exerted effective pressure on Kim Min-Woo.

Things couldn't have gone better for Osorio, as the team comfortably led 2-0. However, the entry of Lee Seung-Woo completely changed the game from a tactical point of view and the Colombian coach immediately reacted by sending Rafa Marquez onto the field and giving a special instruction to Layun, key in the closing of the match.

Due to the need to seek the match, South Korea had more possession of the ball and that made the Tri retreat. In that phase of the game, the Veracruz-born player stopped playing as a midfielder and positioned himself as a right-back, allowing Edson Alvarez to play as a center-back and thus form a line of five defenders in the back.

With Layun's new role, the victory of the Mexican National Team was never at risk at the Rostov Arena. Not even Son Heung-Min's great goal could prevent the Tri from taking all three points. All of this was, to a large extent, thanks to Layun.
