CL semi-final, 5-1-3-1

[Manol Kaloqnov]

First game finished 2:2. My formation was classic 4-4-2 with red arrows on ML and MR, normal mentality, down the flanks, own half, normal tackling, mixed passes (changed to short passes at some point during the game) and zonal. Any advises/changes I should make?

My quality: 24.2
Opponent's quality: 23.2; formation 5-1-3-1

I played the first game home, so the upcoming game I'm going to play away. He's got 2 away goals, so I need to make everything right this time.

If he only has 1 striker, you don't need 4 defenders on the back line. You can run 3-4-3 to get some extra attacking pressure.

I don't have a 3rd striker, I've only got 2. What about 3-5-2?

Is there a counter in the list, for this formation?

Stay on topic guys, please. My question still stands.

OK, I have advanced to the finals. I defeated my opponent 0:3 in the 2nd game of the semi-finals using 3-5-2.

Now about the final. The guy is using 4-4-2, I've got higher quality. I have good players on all positions except AML, AMR, DML and DMR. Any advises?
