Annoying AI Comebacks!

[arda9653]

Everytime I play against a top team, on Professional difficulty or Higher, after the team finds one goal against me, it seems that %99 of their attacks in the next 10 minutes will result with a goal.

A recent example for me is Winning 3-1 against Marseilles at 78 minutes in, they find a goal, and by 85 mins in they are 4-3 up.
Am I the only one experiencing this annoying thing? When this happens to me I feel cheated out of the game and get extremely frustrated, one time I went to top menu, restarted the match at beginner difficulty and put match time at 5 minutes and just scored 7 goals out of my frustration, and not to mention that I enjoyed those 7 goals very much!

The CPU does get more aggressive and direct when it's trailing, but whether you let the pressure get you, depends entirely on your defensive skills.

I play on Superstar, BTW. and I even do some tweaks to make the AI harder to beat.

So, do you think It would be a smart thing to go all out defence after having a lead vs a Big team?

That's not what I said... at all.

I have a lot of trouble with AI comebacks as well, but I find that total defence just makes things worse--the best defence is to have possession, and on all-out-defence, the AI will usually get the ball off you sooner rather than later, and usually in your half. I'm experimenting now with long-ball + swapping an attacker/AMF for an SW as my main defensive strategy and it seems to be working better (though it's still tough). What I'd really like to do is get good at the quick counter and make that damned AI pay for his aggressiveness when he's behind!
