id like to know what was illegal about this formation, looks like 4-4-2 to me, but apart from the match fixing that went on (both teams are obviously the same person desperate for a home win lol). but i dont see how they achieved 80-20 possession, any ideas?

Anyone sent off??
If not, the away team spread its legs by putting everyone in an invalid formation.
does playing out of position make it illegal, im not sure about that july. need to try that for myself in friendly
nobody was sent off, just all the players were changed around and best players taken out of the team replaced by useless 2 star players . here are the usual team and their real positions and usual formation

the player in the GK position isn't a true GK probably
yeah hes a 32 year old, 2 star left winger , but i thought as long as the formation was legal it is irrelevant who plays where. i'd guess the person was online and moved one of the players after kick off to make it illegal, maybe moved out a defender and just left 2 defenders perhaps.
ive seen 80-20 games that ive been involved with ....and for the life of me couldnt work out why . i thought playing someone out of position didn't really affect possession that much ? i thought it was had to this number of players in that area / that many in another
no , with soem of mine ive tracked them all match .. 80/20 was teh same , and players were in legal swet-upQuote:

that combined with all 11 players being out of position as was the case here, and you have a recipe for 6-0. not guaranteed a win by any means but it helps with some nifty trickery. i just couldnt work out why 4-4-2 was showing as 20% possession illegal formation. worked out how it was done eventually
talon do you have any pictures of the set up when you had 80-20?
When you do something against the law...:)...
