I've had a few 'funnies'
I've had two goals scored against me by my mate from a 1v1 only for a goal kick to be given.
I also managed to get lucky today from the computer taking it past me and shooting, the ball was just about to cross the line when Seaman dived on the edge of the area and the ball magically appeared in his hands!
Also sometimes players tend to sit on their own goal line and talk to the goalie, either that or they run off the pitch altogether!
And on a completely unrelated note, what is the best home run hit by anybody using Yoshi?
I had some people round the other day, and they wanted to play me at this rather than Super Smash Bros. Melée!! :o
Still, it was great!
Even though I lost both my matches! :(
And my mate's keeper kept flying out of goal for no reason - and he wasn't even pressing Y!! Odd...
I've noticed the goalie does seem to come out for a stroll sometimes and goto jump on the ball but miss!
The other thing is the skill that I wish I could do, Ashley Cole managed to turn with th ball while the ball was about 5 meters away from him!
I scored something like my 5th goal as England, and it said something about fantastic play by scotland. I was like, OK, you're watching a different game to the one I'm playing mate...
I was also playing with Argentina the other day, and when I scored by 6/7th goal in an 8-0, Mark Lawro was saying it was scored by SCOTLAND of all countries!!! And I was thrashing Ecuador at the time....
And yes, it is too easy to foul and way too easy to get booked!
Have you also noticed the handballs when jumping up to head a goal kick away??
I went into a guy 2 footed from behind, and he went flying about 5 feet, but he had previously just passed the ball away, so nothing happened.
You can also do it to goalies, but the timing has to be perfect. You've got to connect with them about half a second after they kick the ball away.
but some hard descions from the referee
Oh yes! If you tackle somebody after they have passed the ball you can completely take them out and still get away with it!
As for that Yoshi thing mine is just over 400. It probably isn't an amazing score but at least it unlocked that stage for me :P
