Default Last minute goals



really starting to do my head in now, only ever scored when im defending a lead, tried everything from attacking to defending deep, its almost as if some idiot has encoded the probability of conceding to be greater in the last minute than at any other time in the game, it happens far to often to be anything else

If you believe that then I'm afraid you're the idiot.

It's natural that a team chasing a game will go more and more attacking as the game wears on. If you, as manager don't take the right steps to counter this then the other team is likely to score. There are plenty of people that don't have this problem, which kind of goes against your argument that it's coded into the game.

Try reading some threads in the tactics forum for more ideas on how to avoid this.

yes, but the probability of me scoring would be greater than of the opposition, i never score because the counter attacking on the game is useless

I disagree. I use a fairly balanced tactic, and have a counter attacking version which I use in away games and I find it deadly when the opposition starts to go more attacking.

It can be done and the fact that you can't do it has nothing to do with the game. It just means that you don't know how to do it yet. Stick with and you'll get there.

why would you need to suddenly alter tactics that work perfectly for 85 minutes, is a fallicy that you have to drasticly alter the style of play in the last 5 minutes or you will almost certainly concede, its utter bollox, like in rl everyteam who is winning suddenly alters there tactics for the last 5 minutes

That's my point, I rarely alter my tactics in the last 5 minutes of the game, and never alter them drastically. I (and many others) have set up tactics that don't require any drastic changes. I just use a slightly more defensive and counter attacking version of my normal tactic in away games and in the last stages of games where I feel the opposition is really putting me under pressure.

But if you believe that players and managers will never play any differently to hold onto a lead then you clearly know nothing about football. Their formation may not change, but there tactics will.

Just face it, it's nowt to do with the game, you're just not good enough at it. If you want help getting better at it then fine, but don't just start ranting on and blaming your failings on the game.

you should go for ultra defensive time wasting tactic in such situations that's so stupid. I mean does SAF has to tell his players to do smth like that? of course not, players know exactly what to do. now you have to have 23 different tactics for every situation....the game just lacks inteigence!!
