Your first match in four steps

  1. Open the game

    Choose Play now on the home screen, or open the game in a separate window for more space.

  2. Check the controls

    Read the instructions displayed inside the game. Identify movement and match actions before committing to an attack.

  3. Review your squad

    Look at the players available to you. Give your team a clear defensive plan and a dependable attacking option.

  4. Play and adjust

    Complete an opening match, notice what caused trouble, and make one focused change before your next attempt.

Follow the controls inside the game

Use the current in-game instructions as your reference. Avoid assuming that a keyboard shortcut from another football game works here. On a smaller screen, give yourself enough room to see the pitch and the available controls together.

Give your next attempt a purpose

Choose a player role or technique to investigate after the match. Comparing one decision at a time makes it easier to understand why your team performs differently.
