1. Don't look at overall team quality, compare the first 11.
2. Did you played through the flanks?
3. What were the after-match ratings for his DL & DR and your ML & MR?
4. How did his team scored the gools? strikers? midfielders?

My guess is he played defensive, mixed or long pass, maybe with hard tackling
