For me, these are typical troll results:

- An abandoned team that is 20%+ lower in quality wins or draw
- An abandoned team that is 40%+ lower in quality loses by less than 2 goals
- An actively managed team that is between 10-20% lower in quality wins by more than 1 goal
- An actively managed team that is between 10% lower in quality and 10% higher in quality wins by more than 4 goals.

The hallmarks of a troll result:

- the opponent barely gets a shot on target but the goals per shot on target are 80%+
- a 15%+ weaker team has approximately 33% possession but has almost the same number of shots on target and shots as the better team.
I had a league match with an active manager who was present during the match. He was about 35% weaker than me. I lost this match 2-1. What was strange is that he used a very offensive formation 4 1(MC) 3 (AMRLC) 2 and had a player sent off at 70" but statistics showed a very equal match. Don't know if it was a trolled match or I had a bad luck or I am a bad manager.
