My subbed (in) player showed up on the board right away - you know that happens every time, before the sub message pops up. He never came off. The sub message never popped up. I finished the game with 11 players on the board. There was no record of substitution in the Highlights afterwards. Go figure.
This happened to me not quite long, I subbed a midfielder immediately he was cautioned with a card, he was replaced on the list, later given the second card and sent off, but I still had the midfielder that replaced him on the pitch. Was really lucky coz I won narrowly
