Teamwork and Tactics

• Some very accurate strikers some not so
  accurate.
• On the whole, defence was solid.
• Goalkeepers were not very smart often caught
  with the ball, or passes out to an opponent.
• Players move into space wellbut intercepted
  passing often let teams down.
• Patient play players werent afraid to pass
  backwards if it meant not losing the ball.
• Use of both static and dynamic roles.
• and blocking goal with 3-4 players ...

Teamwork and Tactics

• Spotlight on Skumby
• Detects safe passes.
• Godlike keeper almost always saves 1 on 1 with
  a striker.
• Avoids tackles by passing backwards/forwards to
  players in space.
• Strikers get free, and pass to each other to get
  clear sight on goal.
• Manmarking when opponent attacks.
• Very accurate shooting got the ball just inside
  the post from any angle.
• Didnt always use the full width of the pitch,
  this meant players found it hard to find space
  when the middle got crowded.

Teamwork and Tactics

• Spotlight on Baltika
• Even more accurate shooting aimed perfectly so
  the ball bounced off the post and in.
• Strikers move as a unit, and pass when they get
  into trouble.
• Rather than run at the goal, players ran away
  back to their defence. A new attack could be
  launched without losing possession.
• Keeper often caught in possession and bullied
  back to the goal.
• Not all the players were used at all times,
  often few passing options.

7
Teamwork and Tactics

• Spotlight on Wizard
• Committed four outfield players to launch
  devastating attacks.
• Drew defenders in, then played the long ball to
  a free man near the goal.
• Not afraid to shoot when it spots a gap.
• Often backtracks when it has space to run into.
• Didnt detect safe passes, and so gave the ball
  away needlessly.

Summary

• Overall, a very high standard of entries.
• All controllers scored at least 10 goals,
  strikers were all good enough to take at least
  some of their chances.
• The only controller to not let in a goal was
  Alans 4 man wall across the goal defence is
  difficult.
• Safe passing vs. Unsafe passing was often the
  difference between mounting a successful attack,
  and not.
• Every controller had at least one unique feature
  which could have been incorporated into a Dream
  Team version
