Match in 4 hours. How to counter 3-1-2-2-2 narrow in Cup

[TacticalMaster]

How to beat this formation? And what about orders? Down both flanks for sure... But own half? Counter or offisde trap? Thanks in advance

[TacticalMaster]

Well the match is starting soon, less than a hour now. Ill go with 4-5-1V. Never played against 3-1-2-2-2 before.. Im curious how it will be.

force counter; 3 x cd; 2 dm wide (or mid wide) - then att wings if counter not working. if he's got a better team than you force counter is all that'll work. either wide or (better in this case) - narrow, cause you gotta defend before you can counter

Your opponent doesn't have any wingers. Tha'ts an illegal formation so you'll get 80% possession and as long as your players are in position, well rested and with good morale you should win easily.

This formation is legal. I would also go with 4-5-1V

attack mentality, down both flanks, pressing own half, normal tackling,down both flanks passing, zonal marking, offside trap and no counter attacks

Okay it starts in 3 minutes. Ill start with 4 defenders and and with 3. I only got 1 proper DMC. But if I really have 80% possesion and he doesnt change his team there is need to worry Ill start 4-5-1v and end 3-5-2v

[TacticalMaster]

Oh it is legal? Ill try both offside trap and attacking and counter+ normal. Just to see what has more impact

[TacticalMaster]

DMC red, neutral or blue arrow? The match started

I do have 80% possesion in fact. I won the match 3-1 thx guys
