Can a 3-defender-formation be successful when op AML/AMR players exist?

This is the formation ive had the best success with in my limited experience



The 2 outside defenders are DL and DR and both can play wing also and they make plenty of forward runs. Equally good with normal or attacking pressure and mixed and short passing, high press with off side trap on.

I tried the same formation and tactics in a match against a decent team but i swapped out my 1st team for reserves so was roughly 20% - 30% weaker than them and i won 2-0 and murdered them all match with possecion and chances.

Good luck

trust me, there is no single formation that can win against any formation,

and you won against the stronger team by using this formation is because you was use it with correct tactic and you was hit the weak spot of your opponent,
nicely done there,

and this formation got less defender and very effective with ON offside trap like you did.

but i know how to counter this formation anyway, because i also was faced against this formation many time before and won
