How come my team can beat his team ? Pure luck ? And some question needed help . Thx

[Dixon X Nic]

@cookizz thanks for replying bro , yea I think it's due to pure luck too , that's the formation of his team shown on the photo,
Maybe I should try to do a friendly against him again and see what's the outcome , and post more info here ..

So far when I encounter better team , I play defensive with counter and long passes with 1-2 DMC .
It will provide better results compare to I go for attacking with offside trap on and amC .

Maybe that's just me lol .

So base on photo , with only 1mil + remaining and 10+ token , with mainly 4-5* players . Should I aim to win the league and bonus if I'm able to try to win the champion league and cup?

Or should I purposely lose the league to remain at level 2 ?
What are the position I should aim to remain at level 2 in the league ?
