Couldn't have had 2 more different matches yesterday...

2nd leg of cup match against similar strength team - lost the 1st leg 2-0 at home so I had to go on the attack in this away game if I had any chance of going through to the next round. I had a player sent off in the 7th minute and my opponent scored from the penalty given. But with 10 men I scored 5 goals and had 80% possession, winning the match 5-1 and going through to the next round with a 5-3 aggregate score line. I'm not complaining but that's not normal don't you think?

A while after that match on the same day I have a league match at home to a team with average 18.2 quality (2 star). In contrast I am average quality 26.9 (4 star). I lost at home 2-0.

What on earth is up with the game engine?
