GunmaN1905 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I completely forgot that tracksuit manager has no mental attributes. It probably won't influence much, anyway, since there will be no tactical instructions during game. I'll just roll with the Sarri mode then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gizzy Posted June 8, 2018 Author Share Posted June 8, 2018 OTF World Cup - Group C Match 1 @Andyh21 Vs @Bliss Seeker The moment we've all been waiting for.... The OTF World Cup finally kicks off Lets have a look at the teams The spotlight will be on the worlds best player CRonaldo and well as the new kid on the block Mbappe. Bliss Seeker take an early lead with a goal from Rojo in the 14th minute. And they lead at half time. Bliss Seeker have had a lot less of the ball but more shots to their name. Early in the second half Bliss Seeker double their lead with a lovely worked move which ends with Mbappe's tidy finish. 2-0 A quick reply....One from the training ground as a wide free kick is worked to Ronaldo and he isn't missing from there. 2-1 And that how it finished. Bliss Seeker has the first win of the OTF WC! The video won't centre and play it at 0.75 speed, as it won't upload slower. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gizzy Posted June 8, 2018 Author Share Posted June 8, 2018 OTF World Cup - Group A Match 1 @adhikapp Vs @Wigmore After the excitement of the opening game, expectations were high for the second match. Underdogs Wigmore are looking to make a massive upset here. Neymar will want to be the star of the show and I don't really know any of Wigmore's team 0-0 at half time. And it was as boring as the scoreline suggests, a few shots but nothing worthy of noting. A little more action in the 2nd half and Adhikapp really went for the win, but they had to wait until stoppage time to get it. A delightful through ball made the finish easy for Werner. 1-0 Video now plays at normal speed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
