Forced Counter attack

Against teams that park the bus and have lots of defenders or say just one striker.

So best is to use against a defensive team set up as you cannot break through his def the normal way and they do not have enough offensive players to be too much of a problem in giving them a goal scoring chance when you give them possession.

Forced counter attack is when you give him the ball and when you win the ball back, his team is outta position during the transition and that is when you attack.

This means that you should only use defensive or normal mentality as you are risking giving him the ball and to steal it back off him to start your attack. There is no point playing attack formation since you do not need the extra attack to go through his outta position defence but the main point is to win the ball back.

I have won plenty of games 8-0, 9-0 playing counter attack with defensive mentality.

The prerequisite tho is that you do need a good defence to play it and why I build my squad from the back or if your defence is not good enough, you are just giving the other team the ball for them to score more goals against you.

The last thing is that when playing counter attack, always use mix passing rather than through the mid or any other type. This is because their team is outta position when you win the ball back and you do not need to go through specific channels to score.
