    Scraping through CL

    IDK if I was lucky or unlucky. Thankfully I scraped through to the Champions League semis 2-2 on aggregate (won on away goals). I faced a weaker team that was one level above me. After dominating the first leg but only winning 1-0 at Spartan Bridge, I was a bit worried but thought that it would probably be a draw, since he only had 38 possession in the first game. Well, the possession didn't change much, but the result did. Despite the stats looking more or less even, or a bit in favor of him, he absolutely DOMINATED me with me and a friend attending and him not. I'm not going to complain much, since in the end I got through on away goals, but this worries me for the rest of the competition as although I am the strongest team left but there are teams stronger than this one. Here are pictures of the match. BTW I made two subs in the last ten minutes but they didn't process.

    You left your midfield rather open for a strong 3(4) center midfield opponent IMO, maybe thats why you got dominated

    Yes, my both of my MC's were out (one through a training injury, one through a ban). I had planned to play a similar formation to him but in the end had to stick with this. Probably should have put my DMC farther up though but didn't think of it at the time.
