4-2-3-1
During the recent World Cup the newest popular formation was the 4-2-3-1. Â Don't you dare call it a 4-5-1 or a 4-3-3! Â Spain, the Netherlands, and Germany, the top 3 teams in the tournament, all generally played the same 4-2-3-1 attacking formation.
Although two other disappointing teams from South America, Brazil and Argentina, also played the same formation, some of their sub-par performance may have been due to their coaches' inexplicable tendency to prove that they could win without some of their best players.
