Are results pre-determined before a ball is kicked?

I mean we have this 3 minute deadline until you cannot add boosters to a player or change formation etc, are we actually wasting our time watching every game? because all the info is put into the system before the game and it brings out a result that may of already decided. You may have a player thats going to score in the 85th minute of the game but if you subbed him in the 70th minute, then the substitute will score the goal instead. Its quite possible due to some of the strange results that the game can throw up on some occasions.

my opinion is that the score is arranged in advance. i have done a few tests playing friendly games between equal teams. i have begun with 4-4-2 for one team against 4-5-1 v for the other. from the 1st minute i changed the 4-5-1 to an illegal formation with no central players at all. the result was a win for the illegal formation (which would be the normal result if i hadn't changed the formations cause 4-5-1 v counters 4-4-2). another time i started the game with 4-4-2 for one team and the illegal formation of no central players to the other. after the 1st minute i changed the illegal formation to 4-5-1V and the 4-4-2 to illegal. the result was that the team who begun the game with normal formation but actually played all the game with illegal won the team who begun the game with illegal formation but actually played all the game with normal formation. coincidence?

So lets say you play all your league games starting with a normal formation then change to illegal formations at the 1st minute and then still win most of your games and thus winning the league would deem that results are indeed pre-determined?

if this could happen what proof do you need more to believe it? as i said i have done it by playing friendly games about 4-5 times. if i had a safe distance from the second i would be willing to try it by playing official games but since i am just 1 point ahead i can't risk such thing

My mate and I work together and often watch each other's games.. Funny enough it often comes up on his phone a few seconds before mine that a goal had happened.. So today I was 4-1 up with a 5 minutes to go I got him to check my league table and It had already updated with my win and I had won 6-1 as you can guess I scored 2 more goals

It seems like the game you see is in some delay to your manager instructions hence why it can take a while to make a substitution once you have given the instruction, when you watching it seems like the next 5 minutes at least has already been calculated in advance.

NO IT IS NOT ..
am big fan of tactic and formation .. and see game change significantly when changing things around and all that happens at the moment i made those changes .. making some comeback when 2-0 and 3-0 down

If you're in your 3rd season my friend... you have seen NOTHING yet!!! If you must lose, then you will lose!!!

ok just to add another story, I have a strong MC with most of the matches either scoring or assisting a goal, one time i played him as ML thinking that he is strong enough to play out of position but until 75th minute I didn't even see his name in comments where I decided to put him back as MC, 5 minutes later BAM! he scores a goal . I don't think that was predetermined

Unfortunately, the game result is predetermined before the game

Hi guys, it's my 1st post. To tell you the truth, I registered today because I'm furious of my 3rd bad result in League!!! I'm 17th level (since 25/11/2011) and the previous 16 seasons I won the League 13 times, Champions League winner 5 times and Cup winner 3 times.
I'm pretty sure the results are pre-determined before a ball is kicked!!!
