Trying to understand

[mojo121]

So I realize football throws up some crazy results, it's the nature of the game....but I just played against the second placed team in my league, I'm top, won 9 drawn 1. He has the same stats, he is a 4 star 21, I'm 5 star 31....he played a 4-4-1-1, I played 3-1-4-2, I was at home, I never watched the game, he did....even though i was up in EVERY stat, poss, shots at, shots on, corners etc....and somehow lost 0-2....really!!....all my players had decent ratings, 1 player a 6, all the rest 7 & 8's....overall better than his player ratings....so what's the deal....???

[mojo121]

Actually he's a 3 star 21....

It happens mate, I have never managed a perfect record in the league yet!, its just how the engine works, we are all baffled by these silly results but know one truely understands why?, it could be condition, morale, age of players, something else or just random variables selected by the server engine, just forget about it and move onto the next game!, you will come across it again if not this season but another one.

always happens
i lost 1-0 in the cup at home but drew 1-1- to a team top of the table in my league

Dude, I don't like Top11 too much but let me tell you something:

You are thinking like a gambler, you presume the better team must win.

Did you want to win every game just because your team is richer and better? In a football field it's 11 men against 11 men and a 3 to 1 difference suddenly becomes a 50/50 because your team is in a bad day, ran out of luck while your opponent is in a jackpot day.

A couple of days ago Atletico de Madrid lost 2-0 against poor Almeria, but yesterday they won 2-0 at San Siro.

This one is better:
In 2008 Portugal lost a crucial game at home with Denmark by 2-3.
In 2013 Denmark lost a crucial game at home with Armenia (!!!) by 0-4.
Teams were all in good shape, it's just those things.

everyone says it happens its the game decides the outcome, i win against big teams and lose against small teams its nothing no one can do to be fair

You know, I understand the nature of football, in the REAL world, and you guys are quoting upsets from the REAL world....but this is some simple FB game. In the digital world, stats matter, better stats overcome poorer stats....but I guess they need to try and make it more real, so really my point is, what's the deciding factor, do they have a random algorithm, is it all scripted from the start, if so whats the point, all these formations, counter formations, orders, really mean nothing....

i dont know but i lost 1-0 to a really bad team so anything can happen and im sure there are loads of people that have lost to crap teams

Milan didn't deserve to lose 0-1 yesterday
