A 5-2-3B away formation with a counter-attacking setup is OSM's best counter tactic against passing teams like Spain, with an alternative 4-2-3-1 setup as a riskier option.

Two OSM counter formations, 4-3-3B and 4-3-3A, that neutralize opponents playing a 4-2-4 attack-heavy formation.

Two OSM counter tactics for the 4-3-3A and 4-3-3B formations: the attacking 4-2-3-1 and the defense-heavy 5-3-1-1, with full formation and instruction details.

In OSM 2022, the best counter tactic against an opponent's passing game is Wing Play, attacking through the flanks to exploit the gaps left by a central buildup.

In Online Soccer Manager, a 4-5-1 A formation with an aggressive, high-press style is the most effective counter to opponents parking the bus with 5-3-1-1.

In Online Soccer Manager (OSM), a 4-4-2B formation with strong central midfielders and attacking wingers is the best counter to a 4-3-3A total-football setup.

The best OSM counter tactic against 4-3-3B is a 4-4-2B with an aggressive, attacking mentality and zonal defense at 75% pressing.
