(S7) Coppa Tradizione: Results

Agree. I am convinced online friendlies are broken

Yes exactly. gameplay was super slow. semi was definitely more in between manual and semi as opposed to how semi feels somewhere between semi and auto in online friendlies.

I remember the game against Beshiktas - worst game ever played - neither of us could barely string any passes or do any clean build up to attack - very slow and passes were everywhere -- i even mentioned it to him right at halftime during our game - because it just wasnt the same.

The game def plays different in match lobbies. Passes can actually be misplaced, which seems like it doesn't happen in online friendlies (I had a 68% pass acc against juan I believe, while getting 85+ regularly in Serie games). I like this mode more as it actually "feels" slow, and "feels" like everything isn't assisted like passes/shots etc.

I would say online friendlies does feel more assisted than it has in the past... perhaps playing on semi in lobbies is really semi while playing semi in friendlies is still mostly assisted? This is something we'll definitely have to try and clear up before the next season tho

Don't forget, meet your opponent in a match lobby!...

IMPORTANT REMINDERS: Home team listed first. For knockout stage matches, use the following scheduling procedure so that the Extra Time/Penalties option can be selected post-game in the event of a draw:​

Online Modes > Custom Games > Match Lobbies > (Meet your opponent in a match lobby)​

-Half Length = 10 Mins​

-Controls = Semi-Assisted​

-Game Speed = Slow​

Squads should be automatically set to Custom since that's how it worked in FIFA 12, which means it should have your pre-set lineups. Make sure your roster is up-to-date with the latest online roster release. Anyone found using illegal rosters will be severely punished.​

Do NOT use Online Friendlies to invite an opponent to a match, as that mode does not allow ET/pens.

GENOA USES ITS HEAD FOR DRAMATIC COMEBACK WIN IN GERMANY

Genoa continued its European journey by traveling north to Germany to face TSG Hoffenheim. The first half was a gentlemenly affair, with many offensive chances given back to the opponent after an iffy interception or ill-advised computer tackle. I think there was combined 1 shot on target in the 1st half.

That went out the window in the 2nd half as spaces opened up and the hosts started dominating more possession in the offensive side of the pitch. Genoa elected to save its subs until later in the match.

Just when things looked to be headed to a safe extra time, the suddenly rock-solid Genoan defense suffered a lapse and central defender Ceseare Bovo dove prematurely as a cutting pass was sent to his man at the top of the box. Usami calmly collected the pass, dribbled around the flailing help defenders and slid in a goal at the stroke of the 90th minute past a diving Sebastian Frey. Exultation to the top of the Rhein-Nektar-Arena's rafters.

With their only remaining possession of the match, MF Juraj Kucka led an offensive surge up the pitch to the heart of the defense. He elected to hold on to the ball as long as possible before firing a shot from about 18 feet out, that ricocheted off a defender's leg and almost found a home in the net but inched over the crossbar. Corner. Somehow Bosko Jankovic's corner found defender Andreas Granqvist's head. The shot caromed off of GK Koen Casteel's left hand and hit the crossbar and in!

In extra time, legs were weary, but somehow Genoa's tiring striker Marco Borriello found the energy to carry a counter-attacking run deep into the Hoffenheim box before flicking a left-footed cross to his strike partner Ciro Immobile who headed home a beautiful match-winner in extra time of the 1st added session.

GREAT match IJGator. Worth the wait and hope to see you in Serie B next season!

Never read this thread before but wow, the game felt totally different. Actually at one point wondered if hokie79 had set it to manual by accident. Wasnt really bad so much as it was different. Much slower. A lot closer to what we like around here than the friendlies are. ​

Stade fights back after going down 1-0 to get a hard fough win over a very good and unlucky team. An even game played throughout that couldnve gone to any of the two teams...Park started the scoring after a beatiful move inside the box and a lovely finish but Stade kept the pressure up and eventually Montano was able to find the back of the net to make it 1-1....both teams had great chances to score in the last 20 mins of the game but it was the lethal finish of Erdinc who scored 2 goals to lead his team to the victory and a ticket to the finals...​

​

GG BESHIKTAS 2nd great game we have played....could've really gone either way as we both had great chances to put the game away​

Your last goal was on 90+ minute though awesome game man! Good luck in the final. Bring that cup to Serie B !!!

I am loving that 55" LED tv of yours hokie79 . Keep this up in the league

ha..no idea what is up..just lost to Leicester City in my career mode and I play Arsenal.....geez....waiting on my first win still on anything....maybe just ran out of luck and im back to reality...

West Ham's defense was beast though...had like 2 good chances and that was it....CxMacx10 had me covered - in 4 games against him i think ive only scored 1 goal...lol

Bordeaux Advances In Extra-Time Thriller
The lone remaining quartefinal match was worth the wait. Stuttgart has been struggling thus far in league play, but made sure to bring their A-game against Bordeaux in the Coppa Confederazione. Bordeaux opened the scoring in the 25th minute, and held the 1-0 lead into the half. VfB stuttgart answered shortly out of the gate in the second half though, as Cacau fired in the equalizer. Neither team could find the net for the remainder of the half, making it 1-1 after 90 minutes. Extra time then started and Bordeaux came out firing. The French side scored twice in the first half of extra time, making it 3-1 and virtually sealing victory. But as Lee Corso would say, "Not so fast my friend!" Stuttgart's F. Rodriguez hit a splendid bicycle-kick goal off of a corner, putting the Serie B club just 1 goal back with little time left. Stuttgart NEARLY equalized, as it appeared they had an open shot on net. However, a Bordeaux defender on the ground managed to block the shot and the ball was cleared away, saving Bordeaux from having to go to PK's and instead granting them a spot in the Coppa Confederazione semifinals. The 3-2 win was quite the thriller, and Bordeaux will next face Hamburger SV in the Coppa Confederazione.

gg Frenchie1916

juan (or BESHIKTAS ) can you confirm this scoring log is correct? guessing this might be somewhat off w/ two 67' goals w/ same scorer/assist and since it appears kinda a bit outta order & after seeing beshiktas' comment above

juanchoCT14 can you confirm?

Phenomenal match, man... Nip tuck hte whole way.. You run g the post once in the 1st half when I thought I was dead to rights... Immobile's equalizer right after your lid-lifter seemed to come out of nothing... I got to learn to control my headers better or else it wouldn't have had to go to extra time like that.

I have the video of the winning goal, a perfectly-placed curling shot from Immobile as the defender guessed the wrong way, but EASPortsWorld.com has NOT been working for me lately!

hey man..i edited the results after i saw the error...it's accurate now

An absolute thriller. It seemed as though penalties may not even be enough as they went 8 rounds. But in then end, it was West Ham knocking off Real Sociedad​

and RedAL925 and earning a trip to the final.​

Andy Carroll got things started in the 9th minute as he was able to missile one into the back of the net from just outside the box. As was the story of the game, Real had an answer. Just four minutes later G. Castro was able to find the back of the net. It then looked as though the teams would settle for the even score at the half but Matt Taylor had other ideas for West Ham as he hit a wonder strike into the top corner from 23 Yards just before the halftime whistle.​

Again, Sociedad responded. A brilliant half bike on a cross by Vela again knotted the game. The 2-2 scoreline would stand all the way through extra time and we would head to PKs.​

Both GKs were amazing in the shootout, it took 8 rounds before A. Diarra delivered the game winner for West Ham.​

​

Epic Game RedAL925​

I edited the post above with the accurate assists for me and the MOTM. I have no clue of assists for RedAL925. Was writing recap and got excited obviously and forgot lol

Vela from Griezmann, Castro unassisted

Edited original post. Thanks.
