Best FM23 Catenaccio Tactic | FM23 Classic 3-5-2 with Estoril Praia

In this post, I will focus on the best FM23 Catenaccio tactic – a part of my FM23 Custom Tactics series. Catenaccio is an old football tactic you hardly see in today’s football. FM23 defines catenaccio as “a defence-focused style that primarily looks to deny the opposition goalscoring opportunities. A libero is traditionally deployed to offer cover behind the defensive line”. Just like all my FM23 custom tactics, this custom catenaccio tactic is of two versions which are:

• Classic 3-5-2 version

• Asymmetric 4-1-4-1 version

The classic 3-5-2 version will be discussed in this post, while the second version will be discussed in the article that follows this one. Since I have created custom tactics with clubs in the top 5 European leagues, I decided to do something with the one by choosing the Portuguese team, Estoril Praia. With no further additions, let’s get into the details of this incredible tactic.
