For me, i will go with the 2DMC - I have used this against a guy 2 level above me (he has a rating of 42+ while my rating is 38+) a couple of days ago. I won the match 3-1. I reckon its not wise to attack against a very strong opponent especially if you are preserving a lead. Play defensive, counter and hit him on the break...it works 90% of the time for me. Even in real life football, alot of teams play with 2 holding midfielders...cheers

Mentality: hard defending
Pass focus: through the middle
Pass style: Long pass
Tackle: Hard
Pressure: half pitch
Counter attack: Yes
Offside Trap: No

Because my defense player are faster, younger and with more abilities.

It's kind of Fort Alamo or Chelsea trying to preserve a 2-1 against Barcelona

I am wondering to if it was not better to play the attack game , because with 1-0: I am out of the cup, maybe it's better to try to score a goal and go to at least ET or penalties ( or push him to score 3 goals)
