Or did i missed something?

Because my 2 association team members 5* lost to 4* opponents that too in home matches.
Even i too lost both matches ( my 4* team was better in papers then the other 4* opponent in quality level 67.3 vs 58.9)
My team - 2 players 5* and others 4*
opponent - 1 player 5* , 3 players 4 * and others 3 *

Is not this like daylight robbery ?
No, in absolute. Thats a close match.

A 4* can do a better contribution than a 7* perfectly, remember that, there are the visual skills and the internal programming, that determines, how % of effectiveness have a player, in shoots, free kicks, corners etc, too how % of contribution/appearances/ lets say time visible is during the matches, etc.

So, basically is a x9 4* formation vs x3 4* + x7 3*

Some people come here and have the same idea, but thats a wrong perspective regarding how the stars differance really make the differance.
Believe me, this is a close match and what make the differance, is the internal %'s of effectivity and contribution/appearances during the match.

Too we have to see, the economic bonus, the normal training bonus, the actions inside the match as sub's, + the bonus possesion for who attends....

Is much more bigger what have influence really and, for those who come to complain, the margin in stars terms that a level can face another team equally is more much big.
