Friendlies, Man of the Match =/= +4 skill points?

[LeManiaque]

I tried searching for this one.

I've only hosted a few friendly matches and hadn't noticed this before: the Man of the Match awards doesn't bring +4 to a single skill like it does for other non-association matches?

correct
from the old times (with only the old version).
Generally speaking, except for some money (for lv10 and above managers) friendlies are useless

I'll be using friendlies to test young players with Q too low to play on league level. I want to move through more U-21 players to find the few who are worth giving attention and resources. I don't think it's necessary to buy only 95% Q Nordgen players from auction and hope they will be good. Rest packs go farther with lower star players. Training level is at 85.5, it'll be very slow from here, so i have condition I can try to use more efficiently. I also have excess $, so increasing value of players I'll sell doesn't help me anymore.

Thanks Nico for confirming.
