Not confusing it with Emlyn Hughes International Soccer for the C64 are you?
That game was ace - with a hard enough shot you could just score straight from the kick-off  |

While we are on the subject of retro football games I'm trying to find the name of an old arcade game I used to virtually camp on as a kid when on holiday in Spain. At the time it was WAY ahead of what I had at home and I want to see if there any left anywhere.
It was a low cabinet, one you pulled two chairs up next to with a roller ball each and two buttons. The game itself was very much like Kick Off, top down view. The passing and shooting on it were fantastic and it was graphically brilliant for it's time. Things I remember about it are when you cleared a ball or lobbed it, the ball got bigger to make it look like it was moving closer to you.

Not sure. Probably between 1988 and 1994, sometime around then. |

It's probably a bit late for Atari soccer then. Fighting Soccer was around that time, but it's probably not that. |

Could be. I've text my brother and he reckons it was Tekken World Cup and that it was around 1986 ish rather than 88-92 as he remembers being younger, but that brings nothing up on google but pictures of Tekken the fighting game. |

Next question to narrow it down, did you have to scroll around the world to pick who you wanted to be? |
