Strengths: Improved attack

Although they have had very few matches to showcase their full potential, La Roja under the management of Ricardo Gareca have managed to display better football. They have shown better attacking connections, positioning Alexis Sánchez as a playmaker and giving him more freedom to distribute the ball.
