80th minute. millwall 1 - 0 chelsea fa cup quarter finals (me being millwall!

i switch it to ultra defensive for the last 10. soft tackles so i dnt give away a penalty and play deep.

i put on 2 defenders for my strikers and play long pointless balls to kill of the game.

untill.....

marvin Elliot decided to kick a lampard and get sent off in the 82nd minute. so i bring on another defender sub for a right midfielder.

the sub was on the pitch for a hole 30 seconds before he gashing his head.

im now down to 9 men.

85th minute.

my goalie decides to have a 30yard sprint to the half way line to meet a loose ball and misses it. drogba scores 1-1.

88th minute 2 yellow cards sends off anotherr player of mine.
but amazingly i score a goal!! (own goal by s.w.p)

90th minute im 2-1 up surely a win.

untill i hear 4 minutes extra time ........ shevchenko hatrik. FU !!:boohoo: :nape: :mad: fm2007 hate millwall

no need to go so negative. Your just letting chelsea come onto you, and have no outlet up the field to keep the ball away from yer goals.

Never go ultra defensive with 10 minutes to go, that's plenty of time for the other team to pile on the pressure because you've basically taken the offense away from your tactics. If you need to hang on to a victory, go a little more defensive as the game goes on. Don't switch to ultra defensive until about the 88th minute, then start using time wasting as well, and set passing strategy to short, to make sure you keep the ball and dominate possesion when you have it. Keep your defensive line deep as well and tick the counter attack option because the other team will surely be attacking if they're the ones chasing the result and you might be able to catch them off guard, get numbers and score to put the game away for good. Hope that helps.

Edit- After just realizing that I only read the first two lines, here's some more advice. Never, EVER use long passing if your clinging on to a one goal lead. Long passing ensures one thing, to give away possesion and let the other team back into the game, especially if that team is looking for a result. Tackling should have been left at normal, putting it to easy will make your defenders pass off making crucial tackles and will turn them into wimps with the game on the line. As for the sending off and the injury, that's just unfortunate. So really, the game doesn't hate you, you lost the game with your failure to execute the proper tactics in crunch time.

basically, you did everything wrong :(

when i try to defend a 1-0 lead I play time-wasting, short passing and slow the tempo. Put on counter-attack and 70% of the time it does the trick for me.

that's why I said 70%. there is always some idiot that thinks they can run the pitch and lose it. then its up to the goalie.

Depends on when you employ time wasting. Don't do it too early or you might get ****ed.

I remember some good old CM01 times. I took charge of some German team mid season, they were 17th, and i lost 10 games in a row (H) And then won all the rest and kept the team in 1st div.

Never put Ultra Defensive, that's a rule. The thing your players will do is look at your keeper, and they should be looking to the opposites keepers.

You may put everyone at the back, but be sure to put someone in front with max pressure. If you have a good team in the air, hard tackle. If not, gentle tackle, or normal if he has good tackling skills...that will pressure the defensive line and stopping them to come further in the field...

Slow the tempo, tick counter and play by wings. No creative freedom. If you have a good passing team, go with short passing. If your team passing skills sucks, go long. Time Wasting is very important, but don't put it in 20...pressure in low. Only one or two should pressure...tackle really depends on the teams morale and tackling skills, antecipation and stuff, but I put it hard, we are no pussies here.

Usually does it for me, and I also make pointless subs when I can.

God hates me, never keep my banger on safety
My mother raised me alone, you can't break me
My hearts pumpin' the blood of Royce Gracie
My thoughts dumpin the slug and point straightly
You rhyme fakely, you still scarred
I'm studying deep thoughts like Bill Maher
I'm real raw, we just dumbin' it out
And y'all ain't sayin' nuthin' with a gun in yo mouth
That's what I'm about, but Vinnie Paz go deeper
Y'all still under the spell of dose ether
The Grim Reaper, it's all nature
And every word from Allah is on paper
We all hate ya, we can't stand you
Chapter 8, verse 3, book of Daniel
You like a candle, you just burn
You never worship Allah, you can't learn
