Positions

Just like in normal football, you have three main areas on the field: the Attacker, Midfielder, and Defender. Each field of play will have different positions, which will be on effect by the change of formations. You can see the player’s style with the indication on their cards, for example with G indicating the player is a Goalkeeper.
