I'm so fed up the game engine ruining my enjoyment of this game. Decided to start a new game as Cruzeiro. First game in against my reserves I have 26 shots, they have 2, the score? 1-0 to them. This sort of crap just happens far too often, it's so heavily biased in favour of the A.I. scoring it's ridiculous. Stats just seem to be utterly irrelevant
won the game 3-1 at the end however.
