Question is on the subject: on those dificult games that your team is on the upper side, smashing the opponent but cant score a goal, what instructions do you change to force that goal?
I'm playing with a 6-tier portuguese team, managed to got promoted twice (4th tier now) and although my team is better than the rest of the teams and im using the top tactic of this forum, im not able to win games even thou statistically im winning everything (shots on target, xG, possession, etc..).
I know that a lot of you will say: "Buy better players", but im on a tight budget and accordingly to Genie Scout with the latest modified ratings, i already have a higher average rating than any other team in my division

I tend to lower the tempo and try to pull the opposition around to create space. I find that once your team becomes OP that teams tend to park the bus. Constantly attacking them just allows them to stay in their positions, by lowering the tempo, I've noticed that they tend to leave their positions creating space
Can you share your tactic please? See I always try and drop the "Technical" aspects of a tactic when playing in lower league purely based on the fact that I don't believe the players are good enough to play a certain instruction, for example, step up more or very high defensive line or play ball into box etc... I just try and keep it as simple as possible

Thanks, that tacic is quality pal and looking at your previous screenshot, you're creating chances. It could just be a case of not having the right players. Have you tried loweing the tempo?

it looks like the tides are turning and im starting to win some games.. yea, i'll try to lower the tempo if this happens again..
what about work the ball into the box? you think it would reduce the amount of unnecessary shots?

I would probably go with the shoot less often PI, I don't know what it is with work ball into box or play out of defence for that matter, they just don't seem to work

How are you conceding the goals? Set pieces?

usually they are open plays.. on this game specifically 1st one was a counter attack and second goal came from a throw in
