I like your signature. I'm hoping to see 1 more good 1v1 SE replay this year Currently on work so gonna check&comment this replay later or tomorrow ...
This wasn't a decent game, this was awful. I'm not sure who is the worse player here but i'm assuming Barbarossa was as he lost.
Whyyyyy would you put recon on every infantry unit you get your hands on? You know it makes them weaker right? Why would you then blob all these recons together?? It doesn't make any sense.

Going multiple recon section allows greater capping mobility for Brits since Tommies by default slow to cautious walking in unfriendly territories. They need an LT in range just to resume to normal movement speeds. This allows greater "unit autonomy" for territory like harassing enemy territory connections.
This playstyle usually means greater focus on munitions for rapid upgrading of tommies to recon, but for using the recon snipe ability. In early game, taking out one model can mean the difference between victory or defeat in that early engagement. Once you get enough recon tommies (3 or 4), I've seen players blob them in order to allow rapid cycling on sniping the enemy squads. Spending 75-100 munitions to wipe out an entire axis Gren or Pgren Squad is a good deal to many players.
Of course, this means that brits will lose some of their more defensive benefits of holding ground. But the more aggressive capping options can mean faster teching for light vehicles or even armor. When the recons start getting pushed back from more powerful axis infantry, the earlier vehicles should arrive in time to blunt that.
TL;DR: This strat is the closest that Brits will ever get to playing like US.

Yeah, I understand those points. He tried to do the triple snipe, but failed unfortunately.
If you're going to blob, the advantages of the recon squad aren't there. He didn't use his recons to cap big parts of the map when he could. Also, he build 2 LT's so that argument is out of the water.
He should've just upgraded with brens and grenade rifles. Would've been an easier win.

all u have written is wrong did u actually watch the replay ? just to clear point bloob brits is useless without lt and there were a risk to lose it and i lost one , lt still give bonus to tommy without upgrade and you dont have to upgrade every thing like little kid i need healing early game and i did more upgrade recon squad late game just to drain his MP

mass recons as engineere doc - OP in good hands, just snipe all over time. Or x4 snipe on vetted PG/jager. after that vet3 lt + capt vs vet0 pgs - you can just a click, 0 damage.
Also it is live action, people not robots, even best of the best when play each other they do very very stupid things. But not because they are stupid, just because presure, speed, stress are so high

Having 7 recons is way inferior to having 7 bren upgraded infantry. I know all the advantages and disadvantages of both and just have to objectively disagree.
