Division 4 PvP was serious business and this 2-1 win felt like I earned every single point 😤 I loaded in with my green kit against a Barca team and from kickoff you could tell the guy knew what he was doing. He had 52% possession and was pinging passes everywhere with 79 total. I only had 41 passes completed but I told myself quality over quantity. 4 minutes in El-Hadji Diouf got the first big chance. He broke through, the keeper came out in orange, and Diouf tried to round him. Didn’t go in but that “Shot Taken 26 El-Hadji Diouf 4’” on the screen let me know we were here to attack and not just sit back and defend all game. The breakthrough finally came in the 16th minute and it was Wayne Rooney who did it. We strung a few passes together in midfield, worked it into the box and Rooney just buried it. “Goal Scorer 8 Wayne Rooney 16’” flashed up and I was up 1-0. The crowd in the stadium went mad and you could see the “PLAY CRAZY” boards lighting up around the pitch. After scoring I started feeling more comfortable because going behind in Division 4 is how you lose points fast. The opponent was still trying to play out from the back with all those passes but my 22 interceptions and 6 tackles were cutting a lot of it out. I just needed one more goal to feel safe. That second goal came 7 minutes later and it was beautiful. 23rd minute, Gareth Bale picks the ball up on the wing, drives past his defender and drops a perfect ball in. El-Hadji Diouf was waiting and he made no mistake this time. “Goal Scorer 26 El-Hadji Diouf 23’ Assist: 25 Gareth Bale” popped up and it was 2-0. Diouf finally got his goal after that early miss and Bale’s assist was exactly what I needed. At 2-0 I started thinking about the 3 points and promotion to Division 3. 15 points is what you need and I was already counting. The game showed 3 shots on target for me vs 2 for him so I was being clinical even with less of the ball. But Division 4 opponents don’t just give up. 29th minute and Lamine Yamal scores for them. Dennis Bergkamp got the assist and Yamal finished it to make it 2-1. “Goal Scorer 19 Lamine Yamal 29’ Assist: 11 Dennis Bergkamp” and suddenly it was game on again. My heart rate went up because conceding late in PvP is the worst feeling. I had to switch to defensive mode real quick. More clearances, more interceptions, just wasting time in the corners when I could. The stats showed they had more possession but I had the goals and 1 save from my keeper kept it at 2-1. Last 10 minutes felt like 30 minutes. Final whistle and 2-1 win secured. 3 points in Division 4 Phase 13 and I’m off to a good start with 0/10 matches played now 1/10. Rooney and Diouf got the goals, Bale got the assist, and my defense did just enough with 22 interceptions to hold on. Losing possession 48% to 52% but winning the game is the most eFootball thing ever 😂 This is how you climb out of Division 4. Clinical finishing, take your chances, and don’t panic when they score. Next match I’m trying to keep a clean sheet though because these last minute goals are stressing me.
