    Sao Paulo V Fernerbache

    Think Fernerbache won 3-2 on aggregate. I was pushing for an equaliser in the 2nd game but just couldn't find it. Could have got 2 cheap goals, 1 in either game, but for some reason I decided to do the nice thing and kick the ball out of play:P

    Yeah the score was 2-0 to me ib first game and 2-1 to you in the second one. I'd have done the same honestly if you did it I swear. Good games though.

    Absolutely. I just knew it wasn't going to be your day when you hit the inside of the post, and it went straight across the goal, and curled out for a corner.

    Yeah, sorry I didn't mention it earlier, if you are equal on goal difference, play a third match and go to penalties if required.

    I think the rules where kind of made up as we went along, to be fair to Emmet this was probaly a trial tournament, so hopefully with the next one all the rules would be made clear at the beginning so there's no confusion.

    OK guys, it seems some of you aren't 100% on the rules.
    If the match is level on aggregate after the two matches, away goals come into it, if the result still remains a tie, a third match will be played and will go as far as penalties to determine a winner.

    So, for the Deportivo v Fernerbache game, Deportivo win, as they scored more away goals.

    Sorry I wasn't clearer at the start, I forgot all about away goals.

    Ok fair enough.

    If i can make a suggestion for the next tournament, I think you should not have away goals, and just if its a tie at the end of the 2 games, play a game that can go to penaltys if its tied on aggragete, or just have it so we can select go straight to penaltys/ E.T. + Penaltys at the end of the second game and skip the third game. I think thats a bit better.

    This will prevent the whole "who was at home in this game" and "I was the away team in this game; No I was" and all that stuff if people get annoyed or very sore losers. I think its a bit fairer too since its a bit of fun and away goals are a bit annoying.

    Yeah, I was planning to do that since it seems a bit more complicated than I anticipated.

    I agree. I had been trying to figure whether it would be better for me to be home or away first. I thought away at first, but I'd prefer to play at home and try and limit the other team to one goal - then the game is in your hands.

    Are you for real, it's a computer game, there's no real benefit either way

    To be fair, it applies the exact same as in real life.

    Yeah, I know, I saved your first penalty and got a goal from the counter attack, I though I could nick a goal then as I was playing better for a while, then you got me on the break and scored, then I had a corner and my keeper was up for it, you broke and scored in an open net.

    PSV 2-3 Deportivo

    Awful lag in this game, I was so close to just quitting when you were 1-0 up and just giving you the win to be honest. Decent game with Deportivo having the better of the chances, was annoyed with the free that was given against me and that none of my players would move before he took it, but well played.
