This one covers the GameBoy game Goal!. Much like the other game I wrote an FAQ for earlier in the night when I wrote this, it is a sports game, but moreso based on soccer rather than hockey. So I'll have to try to enjoy this one. Yeah, I don't know much to say about this. But try to enjoy. =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~= Section Two: Version History **GOAL!_2** =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~= Final - First and likely only version of this FAQ completed. 10:08 PM 5/9/2012 =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~= Section Three: Legalities **GOAL!_3** =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~= This FAQ may not be reproduced under any circumstances except for personal, private use.

They will widen/narrow the screen respectively. Otherwise, N/A. ------------------------ Playing the Game - Modes ------------------------ In Super Cup, you'll play games in a tournament type of fashion, going up in the ranks for a win. Exhibition is just a regular game for fun. Penalty Kick ... it let's you practic penalty kicks, obviously. --------------------------- Playing the Game - The Game --------------------------- Okay, this game is really hard to detail, given my current lack of a manual and the way the game screens switch, so I may be inaccurate at some point. You'll begin a game by selecting the teams by country (I haven't noticed an AI difference, though that kinda is possible), then formations, then you get to change those formations. Those are all personal opinion, so leave me out of it. As for the game itself, you'll need to move the ball into the other players' goal. After the coin toss, you want to take possession of the ball (if you currently lack it) with a sliding tackle. You'll be controlling the flashing player. Once you have possession, try passing it to your teammates because, trust me, these guys play rough. If you make it to the goal, you'll need to kick it one more time into the goal for a point. On defense, as mentioned before, you'll want to take possession with sliding tackles. You usually can manage to take away the ball by the time it's shot at the goalie. Once the goalie has it, kick it downfield. If the ball goes out of bounds, a player of the team opposing the one causing the event gets to throw it inbounds. If a player is fouled, a penalty kick may be allowed. Penalty kicks are executed by using a certain D-Pad combo, as seen in the lower-right hand corner -- it can be a high shot, low shot, one to the right along the middle, one to the left along the middle, or a combination of two of those. Additionally, fouls may result in a yellow card or a red card, if violent enough. Two yellow cards or one red card equal an ejection from the game. A foul's violence/stupidity determine the end result. As for game length, that time is decided prior to the game's start. When you choose the options, you'll end up choosing each half's time (1 to 45 minutes); therefore, the game can last 2 to 90 minutes.
