I won my first Cup against the team with 6 quality higher. And I had players out of positions cause of injuries. We probably shouldn't play the game and just handle the titles to the teams with highest quality. If your opponent made it to the finals he probably knows what he's doing.
Today my homegrown 18-21 years old youth also played a tied game against the full of 23+ years old scouts team to protect the 1 point lead in the league standings. He bought 11 scouts this season, I bought 1 and that one didn't even play tonight. I probably should have lost, cause that's what weaker teams should do - lose.
I mean, I've complained many times about crazy results... Like my 5* team loss to 1* abandoned team. But now people filled the forums with complains about pretty reasonable results. This season my teams were losing to opponents with 10 quality lower and I thought that was quiet reasonable.
BUT if my team doesn't win treble tomorrow I gonna complain again. Cause my opponent is 2* abandoned team with goalies playing DC. I lost to the teams like that before, and that was terrible. Nothing like that happened in my Leagues this season.
