Other international teams are NOT accurate. They are pretty much what they
were in FIFA 96. Shame on EA Sports who announced "up to date rosters for
12 leagues". They must know that a large percentage of the people that get
these games are soccer fans that can tell that the lineups are all screwed
up... Big mistake!
Hernan.
Correction. The players are indeed real, but they're a bunch of
A-League and USISL players. Probably has a lot to do with licensing and
fees to get MLS teams and players, not to mention the fact that an MLS
game is forthcoming in 1997.
Still, it is a fun game.
