opponent has 2 injured on field, my players can't hit the goal

[hullabaloo]

aha, i see what you mean now. you mean that the outcome is decided beforehand and no matter what happens during the game you play, the outcome will still happen one way or another.

Thing is though. I played a game this season against a much stronger team so I changed my tactics before the game to have attacker in goal, 0 defenders, 10 AMC/AMR/AML/ML/MC/MR and no strikers. All players in wrong position

I started the game and the other guy takes the lead 0-2 in 20 minutes. I quickly changed my tactics to a 4-4-2 narrow diamond with everyone in their correct position ---> I scored 4 goals and won 4-2.
I don't think that the game deliberately decided before the game even started that I would win 4-2 with my weaker team using an illegal formation.

Illegal formations win ALL THE TIME! It is frustrating to lose when you know you should win. I
Hullabaloo, I dont make this stuff up...I see results from others who have tested this over and over and it is quite clear that there is a strong possibility that the results are computed before the commentary.

Why else would I even think of investigating this? I like a good mystery, especially when i have put my own money into it. I want to know more about what I pay for. Others are content to have it stuck to them, but not me.

No, they simulate the game, create the commentary and the commentary program allows for changes to be made that take into account the changes you make during the game.

So for example, the game decides your 4-4-2 beats his 4-3-3 by a score of 3-1 and one of your DC gets injured during the match in the 67th minute. During the actual commentary, you sub in another DC at 60th minute, so your sub DC gets the injury. All the game engine does is say that a DC gets injured. it was supposed to be Carragher, but you subbed him before the injury was going to happen and Agger got the injury instead. So this would work with goals as well. Once the game is done, it takes into account your changes during the game and makes the proper adjustment to its pre-game simulation and BINGO! you have your final result.

It really is that easy. Much easier than anything else.

I am thinking if the score would be the same if i make my formation to be an illegal one during the game?
