How to play
Draft an XI from historic European squads, then watch it play a full cup season. One run takes about five to ten minutes (2× speed halves the matches).

1
Pick a mode and a formation
Classic shows player ratings. Expert hides them while you draft, so you pick on football knowledge alone. Then choose 4-3-3, 4-4-2, 4-2-3-1 or 3-5-2.

Spin and draft
Each spin lands on one of 48 squads from over 30 years of European nights. Take one player from it and put him in any empty slot. A squad never comes up twice in the same run.

Mind the positions
Players lose rating points out of position: a little in a neighbouring position, a lot across the lines. A defensive midfielder in central midfield loses 1, a centre-back in central midfield 6 and a centre-back up front 22. The best slots for the player you picked glow on the pitch.

One reroll, no duplicates
Once per run you can skip a squad and spin again. A player can only be in your XI once, even if he appears in more than one squad.

Play the season
Your XI plays eight league-phase matches. The top 8 go straight to the last 16, 9th to 24th play a two-legged play-off, and the rest are out. Knock-out ties are two legs until a one-match final at a neutral venue.

Chase 15-0
Win all 15 matches on the direct route for a perfect run. A penalty shoot-out counts as a draw, so it ends the perfect run even if you go through.
Daily wheel
Everyone gets the same spins and the same opponents each day. A new wheel starts at midnight UTC.
Challenge links
After a run, copy a challenge link. Friends who open it see your XI and can draft from the same wheel to beat it.
Where ratings come from
Ratings come from our own formula: the team's result that season, the player's role in that cup run and his Ballon d'Or ranking that year, plus a few documented adjustments. They are our opinion, for fun.
