    I'm up against this same formation in the champions league final tomorrow.

    I'm thinking 4-4-2 classic/4-2-2-2 hexagon should be effective here. Two MC's to mark his MC's. DL and DR cover your flanks and 2 DC's against 2 strikers. Also, he only has 1 DC against 2 strikers while the DL/DR are consumed by the wingers.

    However, this manager did concede 6 goals in the first leg of the champions league semi-final against 4-3n-3 with this formation; yet he still somehow advanced to the finals.

    Maybe some form of 4-3-3 where its MC-MC-MR or ML-MC-MC could work as well? 1 DC is very vulnerable against 3 strikers.
