I think everyone who's played the game for a while would know there's inconsistencies between the events shown by the match engine, and that suggested by the match commentary.

I thought it would maybe be useful to highlight some of them here, especially as a few might be rare or obscure.

I'll kick off with a situation I just saw: opposition goalkeeper punts ball long, my GK coming to collect, misses, their striker (who'd been chasing) nips in behind him and knocks home on the goal line (slightly selfishly denying their GK a goal, I might add).

And the commentater said? "[Opp GK] showed incredible craft and vision to make that goal". Did he really?

I'm sure there's countless more...

This one is quite well known...

2D graphics: Winger chases ball heading for the opposition goal line. Tries to cross. Slices it into the crowd.

Commentary: "Player XXX clears it into row Z. He's taking no chances there."

Amusing.

I've noticed that on very rare occasions the commentary mixes up the player who has fouled with the player who has been fouled. Never seen it mentioned on here though, so maybe it might've been covered had I restarted my game after 8.02.

Not really a problem at all though, just an X and Y mix-up in the commentary line.

For instance "Free kick to Liverpool...Ronaldo was brought down by Torres.....yellow card for Ronaldo" for an event in which Torres was the player fouled against.

I can't remember the exact line, but there's one which doesn't begin with a capital letter. It really bothers me.

There's a few typos here and there too.

If we're thinking about yesteryear can we have the ARSE command back?

Always fun watching players horrendous bans for head butting players / refs. (Only happened occasionally.)

Often see this straight after the ball bounces off the ground, a player tries to catch up with the ball and it goes out of play.
Must have been a pretty big bounce

Two of my defenders were passing the ball between each other. Carelessly. The oppo. striker nipped in, stole it, and was off to the races. The commentary read "XYZ breaks the offside trap..."

Arguably he did.

Free Kick being taken from the right: "X volleys the ball from the right."

I've seen players head butt others on this version, I recently had a player banned for 7 games for head butting a player... But I've not seen it happen to a ref for a while!! I really miss it, it was so funny and shocking when it happened, I remember a few years ago I was playing as Leeds and Alan Smith punched the referee, He got a 3 month ban.
