4-4-2 is one of the balance and common formation in Football, which is strong in midfield and width as well. But its midfield is not as much strong as its width. So, 4-1-2-1-2 Narrow Diamond can counter this formation.

How do you beat 4-5-1 V
hey there, i just wanna share some formation that i believe goes well which counter 4-5-1 V
my team is 74.6% while my opponent is 87.9%, pretty high
but i manage to get a draw by 1 – 1. And won by 4-3 penalty.
not to mention, he got 12% possession bonus from home advantages (4%) + manager present (8%). While me, I wasn’t present as manager, but my team bonus is all 10%, with the average of 8% TP bonus (teamplay) each player in first lineup.
so here’s my formation I used,
4-2-3-1
(1DR-2DC-1DL-2MC-1AMR-1AMC-1AML-1ST)
tactics
mentality – defensive
pressing – low
focus passing & passing style – mixed
counter attack – yes
offside – yes
tackling – hard
marking – zonal
but still, if i was in the match as a manager to boost up 8% possession, I wonder will it improve the match outcome or just the same. I suggest u to present in the macth, to boost up your winning chances. i can say i worth a try.
hello Wilson pls how do you counter

If you have a formation to beat an opponent formation, do you do the reverse if the opponent is using the one listed above to beat it. Say they using a 3 1 2 2 2(DR DC DL- DMC- MC MC-AML AMR- ST ST). Do I then revert back to the one that would have been his style?
