Here are my results so far

However for Bacelona I changed the defence my left back was switch to a defend duty and chygeynskyi was switch to a cover duty and srna switch to attack which made my, even though I lost bacelona should of had a goal disallowed

but still I didnt expect to win in normal time and we did play well.
Just to point out I think this formation will ideal for people who are more interested in the result first then performance
