I finally had a convincing win against this formation. I used my standard 4-1-2-1-2 (DMC-ML-MR-AMC). However, my average rating is higher (19.2 vs 17.9), but on the same token, I was without my best player (Miloslav Merrick, a 28 MC).

I'm also curious why there wasn't a man of the match (sorry for going off topic, lol).
