Play a 32-team continental knockout in 90-second matches, from the group stage to a single-leg final.

Difficulty: Moderate to challenging

Game overview

Head Sport Football runs a full continental knockout with 32 teams, and the structure is what makes it more than a kickabout. You play out of a group, then a round of 16, a two-legged quarter-final, a semi against genuinely harder opposition and a single final. Matches last ninety seconds, so a whole tournament fits into one sitting while still feeling like a campaign.

This title is best suited to players who want a full football tournament in short matches.
