Set a plan for the match

Start with a clear idea, then save the settings you changed.

Prepare Match → Tactics & Lineup

1. Select the correct category and review the players available for your plan.
2. Choose your formation and tactical settings. Read the explanations beside the controls rather than maximizing every slider.
3. Press Save tactics. If you also change leaders, set pieces or substitution plans, use their separate save buttons.
4. After the match, review what happened before changing several things at once.

The saved settings match the plan you intended for this category.

A stronger team and a good plan help, but neither guarantees a win.
