    Agreed, though I think you can also see it against comparable teams as well, like when there is a 5% difference and you cream them 8-0. I remember a game where I was 5% stronger than an opponent and I ended up losing 5-1 (he had 6 shots on target).

    I do think the frequency of the trolls is problematic. When I get a troll result, like the unexpected tie against a team 15-20% weaker, if I play against another team with similar quality right afterwards, I am almost always right in predicting I will lose that match too. Also, it is always strange when you see a game you dominated and they scored 3 goals against you with a 100% accuracy rate. Meanwhile, you are stuck at a 12% accuracy rate.

    Going back to the fixed games, there are certain things I believe you should expect and certain situations that are unreasonable. If you play defensive, you expect to get scored against on long shots, not take 3 goals on counters where your entire team, for some reason, is at the midfield point.
