Hm, I know everyone has individual strategy, but I've learned from real life football and t11 playing experience that you should prepare more for finals and deploy different tactics. If you watched any finals, then you know that both teams play cautious and they 1st don't want to receive goal, then they look for attack. So I suggest you change approach to final matches, dedicate more for them, check his matches to reveal his habitats and strategy etc, unless you play against bot of course
