Markus Pellegrino Nielsen GOsH is a Craitish manager who manages the Daau national team.
He is known for his extreme counter-attacking style when he was managing Daau Bay United.
Managerial Career
Daau Bay United
2019-20 Season
Markus would be appointed as Daau Bay United's head coach for the 2019-20 season to lead them to the top flight. He would however fall short of promotion by losing 3-2 on the last day to Daau United II. Finishing 3rd that season.
2020-21 Season
Markus took a different approach in his 2nd season in Dauian football, leading Daau Bay United to the top flight of Dauian football.
He would win his first-ever title in his managerial career with Daau Bay United winning the Daau Premier League.
2021-22 Season
Due to the lack of funding and a huge amount of players leaving, Daau Bay United was unable to secure a spot in the Daau Super League that season and was relegated.
As a result, Markus' contract wasn't extended and was released on the 1st of August 2022.
Daau national team
Markus would be hired as the national team's manager due to interim Simei Zuzu's medical concerns and health issues. He would lose his first intermicronational to Phinbella by 2-0 but still celebrated success as they managed to keep most of the shots at bay.
Nielsen's first-ever intermicronational victory was against Mataba on the 9th of November 2022 in which Daau won 2-0 away from home.
Managerial style of play
Formation
Markus uses a 3-5-2 formation usually for the Daau national team as seen in most of his matches and switches to a 4-3-3 as his secondary formation.
Tactical style
Nielsen was hailed "master of counterattacks" as, during his time in Daau Bay United, 93% of the counterattacks from them resulted in goals or a shot on target and therefore proved his style successful. He would continue to uphold this style while managing Daau and brought Daau to their first-ever victory against Mataba.
