FIFA 12 XBOX 360 tournament

cw1984 (At Madrid) 0 - 1 Neo (Ivory Coast)

feck of. Just feck off. Unbelievable bull shit.

That's not at you BTW Neo, it's at FIFA. How many 1 on 1s inexplicably wide? Ridiculous.

I couldn't believe the end. You had so many one on ones and they went wide I got so lucky.

Edit: Group A's league table updated on previous page. We all have to play dong!
 
It was rage-worthy. I wouldn't say I deserved to win because most of my chances came after you scored and until then it had been even. The succession of chances at the end was ridiculous though.

If Dong can't get on this evening it'll be at least Monday before I can play. Basically, I need him to take points off 1 of you 2.
 
Some possible scenerios in the closing stages.

1. Neo and Daniel need wins to qualify.
2. Either one draws/loses to Dong and CW1984 draw/beat Dong CW1984 qualify.
3. Dong beats us all tops the group.

Dong pm'd me yesterday to get a game but el classico come on so I left. I left him a message so maybe we might get to finish our group tonight.
 
Mr Anderson (Ivory Coast) 2-0 Sw33t (Ath Madrid)

Nervy first 60 minutes for me. Sw33t had 2 or 3 chances first half, my keeper made an epic save at one stage 1 on 1, full sure it was a goal. I went more defensive and flicked to counter and I managed to sneak a goal early 2nd half, and done ok from there. A late counter then sealed the win. Good game mate, the sigh of relief when I got the 2nd!!!
 
Neo_Mufc (Lyon) 3 - 0 (Tottenham) I_Love_Dong

Good game both had chances but I managed to convert mine. I believe I have qualified.
 
I should have buried at least two chances in the first! Kicking myself now, Falcao I think it was should have just put it in the fecking net! Had a feeling you went defensive for the second, just left drogba up top to pick up the two goals. :(

Good game though, still think I should have got something from it however! ;p

Unfortunately I_Love_Dong can't qualify but has a big say into who will qualify out of cw1984 and Danieldinho.

Any particular preference to who should play their game first? Perhaps cw 1984 and Dong first because a draw in that game will still leave a qualifier open?

Edit: Game already started between Danieldinho and Dong so a draw is needed for CW1984 of any chance of qualifying.
 
Updated tables. Thanks to the lads for updating their respective leagues. Again check it out to make sure it is correct. I found no results for group C since this was last updated, sorry if I missed them.

Quick mock-up of the current standings. Hope it is some bit correct, but atleast people will have a general idea atleast.

I'm not holding out much hope TBH.

Danieldinho beat Dong. I'm afraid you've missed out on a spot. The league is updated at the top. You and Dong have a game left if you do want to play it.
 
No surprise there. Expected Danieldinho to win. My only hope was that he'd get something from the game with you.
 
Group A Update: Danieldinho(Winner )and Neo_Mufc (Runner up)

Quarter-finals
QF1: Danieldinho v Runner-up group B
QF2: Winner group B v Neo_Mufc
QF3: Winner group C v Runner-up group D
QF4: Winner group D v Runner-up group C
 
Ahhh he's one offline. Was gunna play our game to get it all finished up.

You were coasting after 3 games. 7 points I believe?

You were really unlucky in our game. I think that late point against Danieldinho was what kept me up there.
 
Yeh. Won 2 drew 1 from my first 3. Was a cert to qualify. Then...

Anyway, seeing as Dong's gone if anyone wants a friendly just send an invite.
 
Could someone please tell me how to fake a shot?

And also how the feck do you dive to save a penalty? What ever button I press, the fecking GK just stands and looks at the ball going past him!
 
Fake shot is shoot button followed by pass button.

Right stick to dive for pen.

Fake Shot: Press shoot, followed by the pass button. So for me it is X followed by A. Check out youtube for fifa skill vids and practice in the arena.

Goalkeeper: dives with right analogue stick for penos I think.
 
Press it immediately after. Before you've got the shot away.
 
Also, has there been any clarification on the Spurs issue? Are they allowed?

I seriously need to use them to exorcise the 8-1 hammering I received from Liam

I am happy to take the common sense approach here, as it seems to be a bit of a grey area. As some have used them already, it seems unfair to not allow others the chance.

However, I think its an EA issue as to whether they are 4.5 or 5.0 - I've checked several times since we've started this and it differs each time (I don't know why).

We could say you can only use them in the group stage? Or banish them? Seems also harsh on someone, for example, who has faced them four times and then in a crunch match comes to use them but they've shifted to 5.0 stars and can't.

Happy to discuss that one.

I'm at the hospital again all day but can hopefully fit some gaming in later, group D'ers. Certainly before the deadline but asap would be nice. Will let you know.

Where's that result come from? I haven't seen it posted on here.
 
Let's call it 5-5, seeing as I did technically score 5 ;p
 
Wow didnt expect to see a score like that! So dale needs to take something from Cling to have a shot at qualifying. If he draws with Cling, he needs to beat me and Sw33t. If he beats Cling, then he needs just 1 win to guarantee a spot, or beat Cling by 6 goals and draw the last 2 games :D

If Cling wins, its all over. Just to decide who tops the group.
