strange situation Options

[benighted]

How can this happen. I have submitted my scheme: 4-3-3. Counter Attacking, 1% Counter Attacking; Passing:Long.

My rival go offline before the match ( more exactly, in previous 3 matches he went offline and lost 0-3). I thought I would win 3-0, submitting my formation and waiting. But as the game report shows, my formation was 442 Normal 50% Mixed and eventually I lost 0-5. It's really strange because of this lose I was eliminated. Several days without any Cup win really makes this more unpleasant for me
