Does it really matter how a goal is scored? I get that the animation looks stupid sometimes and that should be worked on, but the real changes I'll like to see made to 3d animation is allowing it to reflect tactical changes the manager makes.
Under the old 2d you could see certain tactics like passing focus, mentality, passing style and others clearly represented in the animation. But this is not the case with 3d because there is no noticeable change in animations based on the tactics selected. The only thing that gives an insight into how a match is going are the match stats, even the possession bar is broken compared to what we had in the old 2d.
