Okay I test his formation against 4-1-4-1. First, I set defensive, both flanks, own half, normal tackling, mixed passing, zonal: Lost 0-1 in very early. I switch to whole pitch and hard tackling, score 3 goals in a row.

However, the end result is 3-3 and it went for PK.

I used red arrows on DL/LR and ML/MR and DMC also. You may want to put BLUE arrow on DMC, so he will just be there to defend the other's side AMC. I think it will be better.

If your ST has good attacking skills, he'll score a a lot to make up for your ML/MR. You can see the rating and quality of defenders and DMC from the 4-1-4-1 side is very low, still they can do a decent job of keeping other team's AMC/AMR/AML from scoring too much.

Hope that helps you win tomorrow
