How does Man-To-Man marking work?

[Sillybq]

6 percent additional condition loss per player/entire match for increased defensive effectiveness seems to be the only thing man to man does. I wasted time in the past reading up on tactics and formations that work better with zonal and man to man. Didn’t work for me.

I notice my attackers and MCs helping out alot with defending as well. Hard to tell what the engine dictates and we are limited by animations. While tanking i observed my 1 star team beat 3 star teams and draw with 4 star teams while playing weird formations so i don’t think positions and how we place players matter.
