Arcade mode or career mode?
Arcade mode is very simple. You choose your team and computer team. You can play an unlimited number of matches in career mode. Career mode is a little more complicated. You can play just one match every day, check it in the Fixtures Page. The question is... are you in the first team? If the coach didn't choose you to play the daily match, you cannot play! Coach always gives you some opportunities to play. Don't miss it your you'll be on the bench for the rest of your career!!

How to control your player
You player is highlighted with a small blue arrow over his head. Move it with arrowkeys left, right, up and down. You have three additional keys to run, pass and shoot:
Running key: keep it pressed to run. Your current run key is 1
Passing key: press it to pass when your player holds the ball. You will see a red bar growing in the bottom of the screen. The longer is the bar, the longer will be the pass. If you press it when you are away from the ball, your player will raise his arm and call for it! If you are playing as a goalkeeper, use it do dive and catch the ball. Your current passing key is 2
Shooting key: press it to shoot when you team is attacking and use it to sweep the ball when your team is defending. As for the passing key, you will see a blue bar. The longer is the bar, the strongest will be the shoot. Don't exagerate or you will miss the goal! Your current shooting key is 3

How do match results work in career mode?
You must play your career match before 12:00 PM (GMT +1.00h). For example now you have 19 hours left to play your match. If you don't finish your match in time, you miss it. If you really can't play your daily match, don't worry. Your coach will substitute you with another player just a moment before the match. During the match you will notice that match result is not showed. That's because it really doesn't matter in career mode. Let's think about the following scenario: two Facebook users plays in the same team and get different match results. Which is the final score of the match? Depending on how you play you get a mark: that's what really counts. The final score is the sum of each player's mark. If the difference of the two sums in greater than 3, then it's a victory for the first team. If the difference is less than 3, then it's a draw.
Match results are published everyday after 12:00 PM (GMT +1.00h)
