❌ Carabao Cup Semi Final, eliminated by Manchester United

Every match was played.

Swansea completed the Championship season with 27 wins, 14 draws and only five defeats. We finished twelve points ahead of Norwich and secured promotion while using a possession-based system with a central striker.

The cup run also deserves to be mentioned. We reached the Carabao Cup Semi Final, where Manchester United ended our run. For a squad assembled almost entirely from young players costing less than €10M in total, reaching the final four was another important result.

Spain World Cup Winners

The package also includes a second game file featuring the same tactical project with the Spanish national team.

🥇 Final: Spain defeated Argentina on penalties

Spain reached the final after the following World Cup run:

Spain 6–0 Cape Verde

Spain 2–0 Saudi Arabia

Uruguay 2–1 Spain

Austria 1–4 Spain

Spain 2–1 United States

Spain 2–0 Switzerland

Norway 2–3 Spain

Argentina 0–0 Spain, Spain won on penalties

The final became a very different type of match from the earlier rounds. Spain played against Argentina for 120 minutes, finished the match with ten players after Lamine Yamal’s red card and still managed to win the World Cup through the penalty shootout.

This save is important because it shows the tactic in its original international context, using Spain’s player profiles and the structure created for the Luis de la Fuente recreation.

The Swansea season demonstrates how the idea can be adapted for a young Championship squad. The Spain game file shows what the same tactical concept can produce with elite international players.

Two Tactical Versions Included

This release contains two versions of the Luis de la Fuente 4-3-3.

Extreme Version

The most aggressive interpretation, designed to push more players into advanced areas and create a stronger attacking presence around the penalty area.

It worked particularly well with Spain and Barcelona-level profiles, where the players had the technical and tactical quality required to manage the additional risk.

Controlled Version

The adjustment is not enormous, but it gives the team slightly more protection and stability.

I created this version because the Extreme setup was sometimes too aggressive for the current Swansea squad. The players could control matches, but they were not always ready to manage the transitions and defensive responsibility produced by the original version.

Both files are included so that the system can be adapted to the quality and characteristics of the squad.

The Swansea save can also be used as the starting point for the next stage of the Wonderkids Challenge: taking a squad originally assembled for less than €10M into the Premier League and discovering whether the same group can survive without a complete rebuild.
