FM21 Tactics by Knap: BLACK ECHO

Very slow tempo and short passing tactic, good for the lesser teams (less technical). Most Black Echo variations are safe for underdogs.

It does exactly what the Team Instructions ask.

Out of possession it is gegenpress, but in possession its holds the ball and slows tempo.
It's safe in possession with good off the ball movements. The Attacking Mids are aggressive.

If anything, Black Echo is a less direct tactic, which is uncommon for Knap on this Match Engine version. However, the "pass into space" having a DLP, it still takes lots of risk in possession.

Solid defensively, won't concede many goals.
