The standard 4-3-3 Holding formation appears to be the ideal fit for the French side Lyon Feminin. As a result, both the CMs will be active in counter-attacks and join the back line to prevent any sudden threat from the opponent.

Le Sommer and Diani will be the wingers and breeze past the opponent’s defense to create a few threats while Ada Hegerberg will stay up front and act as a proper striker ready to take on the deadly 1v1 scenarios with the last line of defense.

Damaris Egurrola will be the deep-lying playmaker who can pass the ball around the field to create subtle chances from your half. Both the wingbacks Selma Bacha and Ellie Carpenter will be in the balanced scenario where they can join the attacks as well as retreat to the back line quickly. Wendie Renard and Vanessa Gilles will be the perfect rock-solid CBs to support Christiane Endler in the back.

To sum it up, the whole team will maintain a highline while most defenders stay in a balanced scenario to negate the aerial threats from your opponent.
