Tactical Analysis

The Crusaders’ major plan in confronting other teams is to build a strong defence. With some masters of football, like Kvaratskhelia, chances to score will come, and it’s up to this team to take them.

Playing Style and Formation

Having an impregnable defensive line takes its toll on other lines. So, the biggest number of players will be in the back. That’s why the Euro 2024 Georgia team will most probably appear in the 5-3-2 formation.

Kashia, Kvirkvelia, Dvali, Kakabadze, and Shengelia are the likely defenders in Georgia’s top 11. The centre belongs to Kochorashvili, Kvekveskiri, and Chakvetadze. Finally, Zivzivadze will accompany Kvaratskhelia in goalscoring.

Team History

This team has officially existed for 34 years. It took quite some time to make things rolling in the Crusaders’ world of football.

Overview

The Georgians have shown determination in many instances during qualifiers before. As they got no results they wished for, they directed their effort towards bettering their team and coaches.

Achievements and Honours
