The Athletic: Rangnick received tactical advice from Lokomotiv Moscow analyst during United games

The Athletic have reported that Ralf Rangnick used to regularly receive in-game tactical advice from his former Lokomotiv Moscow assistant coach Lars Kornetka.

Kornetka, currently working as Lokomotiv’s performance analyst, watched the matches remotely from another country and provided tactical analysis for Rangnick during Man United’s matches.

During the games, Kornetka used to talk to Ralf’s assistant Ewan Sharp as well as Chris Armas via a pair of Airpods.

What is more astonishing is that Kornetka didn’t receive any money for his job as this was an unofficial, unpaid role.

The Lokomotiv man had compiled clips on United’s performances and their opponents which were displayed in team meetings.

Kornetka’s work surprised some within the club, considering the Red Devils have their own performance analyst – Marcel Brand – who has access to multiple camera angles and data during games.
