    CL Final against much stronger team

    Hi everybody. I'm (most likely) going to play against much stronger team in championship league final. I won semis today 5-1, and he won 4:2 against very similar team as mine. 4-2 surprised me, I have to say, because he has much stronger team. I expected something like 7-0.

    Here's situation. My team vs his.



    His team as I see it.




    Any suggestions? Counter plan? I'd appreciate any input you could give me. Thanks.

    You can't do anything....counter formation also not give you win because of Player Quality. anyway, 4-1-4-1, 4-5-1V formation for my suggestion.

    Thank you guys. 4-1-4-1 or 4-4-1-1 I was thinking about.
    @zeffri: Player's quality gap is too big, I fear. I never have had such a big difference in quality in competitive match before. But still, I'm going to play that match, so I want to try to win it, regardless.
    I'm going to post result and my choice for the much after the final.
    Thanks again.

    @nikolgiorgos: good video. How much stronger was your opponent in the video?

    Use 5-3-2 through the middle and put hard defending with counter attacks on and short passes to not give him possesion and use offside trap, dont press high as anyway he is stronger, tacklong hard and u might have a chance

    Basically you can send your reserve team out there, as you don't stand a freaking chance in the later stages against +1lvl opponents, no matter what tactics and players you choose, you'll get trolled anyway. So, just relax and don't bother too much, it's decided already anyway...
    Level 21, Season 21, never tanking, no draw manip., +1 opp., 451, avg.Q. 140.1

    Thank you. Today I'm playing legue game against the team with the same formation. I see they had reasonable success against stronger teams with that formation. Although, not too much stronger teams. +-10%.

    Why would I do that? It's the CL final. If I loose at least I tried. Also, I'm aware that my chances are close to zero %. Still, it would be such a threat to win it. I almost secured league trophy and my opponent is running for a triple. Having said that, I remember I lost finals against weaker teams before, besides playing with strongest team with full bonuses. I'm hoping he'll have one of those days.

    Another thing, I still have to reach the final. I won semis 5-1 also from a much stronger team. But, I could loose 4-0 next game. Unlikely, but you never know.

    Edit: my semis opponent is also +1lvl and I played 3 friendly games with him prior semis. Lost them all.

    CL Final against much stronger team

    I promised I'll show the result, so here it is. I lost 2-1. Pretty equal match until very last minute. My team played 4-4-1-1. Defensive, mix, hard, short, low. Opponent +2 support.



    Thank you all for participating.
