The game is faked!

Totally disagree with you. My opponent played 5 defenders and 2 DMCs. I played AMR, AMC, AML and 2 strikers against that. How would you have countered that? Learn to get some context before you jump to conclusions.

5 defenders vs 5 attackers = 10 players in the opponent box, that's crowded, they are not sardines. no space to score.

Maybe try a different approach with opponents like that, less attackers against defenders makes the defenders come out to mark some midfielder and thus, create spaces behind.

Notice - have you ever notice on the 2D that a free player never gets the ball, a defender has to mark him before he relieves the ball. Therefore I judge without knowing your strategy because the opponent box is choked with players.

Your analysis is logical and it should be like that. However, in TE11, I'm not sure if the engine works with the same logic. For example, I mostly play 451V and find it's difficult to cope with opponents who play 4-1(DMC or MC)-3(AMLRC)-2. There was one match that the only MC of an opponent got a red card and I still could not win. Maybe, I'm a weak manager.

I've come across several managers that plays sans MC successfully. They mostly adopt a long passing strategy with high pressing basically cutting out the middle man (MC).

Recently I met a manager that played 3223 DL DC DR DMC DMC AML AMC AMC AMR ST adopting the strategy above. Countered it by focusing long passes along the flanks.
