PLAYED FOR YOU

Champions 2020

WIN THE Champions Cup!

Each player is trainer of a soccer team with a squad of 18 players and 2 goal keepers. You choose your starting team of one goal keeper plus defenders, with jersey numbers 2 to 7, center forwards with jersey numbers 8 to 13 and defenders with jersey numbers 14 to 19, and places them on the board.

For kick-off you roll the die, the trainer with the better roll puts the ball on his player in the middle and must kick the ball for the difference of both dice results, that is, relocate it this number of steps in any direction. Once in a move the ball, going from one player to another, can do a knight’s move. All later turns of trainers start with a roll of the die and you move a player on the board this number of steps in any direction, not diagonally and not through squares with opposing players, and then the ball, when there are pips left. Then you can move a player two steps nearer to the ball if he did not touch the ball in this turn and would afterwards be nearer to the ball than any other player of your team. When the ball reaches one of the goal squares you target the goal; whether the goal keeper can parry depends on the strength of the shot and the distance of the goal keeper from the ball. For all special elements of a soccer match from corner, foul or free kick to penalty shot, kick-off, injuries or throw-in, etc. there are rules and you can also use tournament rules. From Street Soccer to Champions Cup, the fun is the same and also the tactical possibilities for ball movement and positioning of players, and all this using relatively short, concise rules. A very good development of an already good game!
