+ | '''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' (グレートサッカー) is a football game for the [[Sega Master System]]. It was released in Europe and Japan on [[Sega Card]]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Gameplay== | ||
+ | ''Great Soccer'' is a very basic football game played from a top-down perspective with a vertically oriented pitch. It always features a generic red team playing against a generic blue team. Teams consist of five players plus a goalkeeper. Games are divided into two halves, each five minutes long. | ||
+ | |||
+ | From the title screen, a one-player game can be started by pressing {{1}} on the first control pad, with three difficulty levels for the computer team (Amateur, Semipro, and Professional). A two-player game can be started by pressing {{1}} on the second control pad. Player one controls the red team (the Red Hurricanes), and player two or the computer controls the blue team (the Blue Cyclones). | ||

+ | |||
+ | In the first half, the red team starts on attack and defends the bottom goal, and the blue team starts on defense and defends the top goal. The teams switch sides in the second half. After a goal is scored, the defending team goes on attack and gets to kick the ball. | ||

When the goal is in view, the kick can be aimed by pressing {{left}} and {{right}} to move an arrow in front of the goal. When passing, the ball is passed to the closest teammate that the player was last facing (who is marked by a white arrow). If a pass is received by a team member who is closer to the goal (at the start of the pass) than the furthest defender (not counting the goalkeeper), it is considered an offside pass, and the opposing team gets a free kick. | ||

+ | If players choose Penalty Kick, every member of each team takes turn shooting the ball. The team with the most goals after every member has kicked wins the game (unless there is another tie, in which case the team members start shooting from the first member again). The kicking team kicks with {{1}} and can aim the kick using the D-Pad. The other team can move the goalkeeper with {{left}} and {{right}} to defend. | ||
