This is a save I want to play to get warmed up for a big team save in the future that I plan to do

Update 1A

Welcome to Update 1A of my International Icons save. Just a quick update, and if your wondering why it's called 1A, there will be two updates for each competition, 1A will be the qualifying and 1B will be the tournament.

Qualifying Group

Spoiler

We stroll through the group, winning all but one, which was a 2-2 draw with Holland!

Top Scorer

Had to scroll down a fair bit to find our top scorer, only 5 for Giroud but we rotated a fair bit so there were a lot of goals for everyone.

Assists

Fekir was one of our main players, occupying the AMC role for most of the campaign, and got a few assists!

Key Game

I know it's against Luxembourg, but I was still really pleased with this result, and something we can build on in 2018!

 

Tactic

IMG_5097.thumb.PNG.abbc00bebf257df0bafcafe3f8a66684.PNG

Just a standard tactic, but works quite well! Just a note, there is a reason these players have been picked, bare with!!

 

Overall

Just a quick update, and hope to get WC 2018 finished by tommorow noon! A good campaign and am looking to get one trophy of the list next year.

 

Picking your national team

How do you guys pick your National Squads. What I do is after every round of fixtures, I remove all players from the squad, and at the next call up time, will only call up players with an Average Rating of 7.00 or over, unless there are no other options. Anyway...

Thanks for reading!

Seems like a good way of doing it mate, I pick 2 RB's and LB's aswell as wingers, 4 CM's and 4 CB's and 2 of every other position, I pick strikers on how many they have scored but the rest is based on average rating! @Eogtuc0910

Update 1B

Hello all and welcome to update 1B of my International Icons Career. In this update, I will run through what happened at the World Cup!

Run Up To Russia!

These were our run up freindlies to the World Cup, and as you can see we secured some comfortable wins, although they were a fair way away from the World Cup!

 

Squad Selection

 

Spoiler

IMG_5108.thumb.PNG.3c1f3aefe35e092d0a9c9f3901f272b4.PNGThis was the Premilinary squad I selected, fairly strong and I was happy with the squad despite no Benzema or Payet ( Due to poor form)

 

 

Group Stage!

 

IMG_5114.thumb.PNG.b6b39eb2f8063d72d831bc8c0effcf92.PNG

Fairly routine, although we suffered a loss, as you will see below. Onto the knockout rounds!

Group Stage Fixtures

Was easier than it looked!

IMG_5112.thumb.PNG.e14ae1c43fdbeac82471dbf8776370a1.PNG

This poor result prompted a tactical switch up!

IMG_5113.thumb.PNG.2851f4c077073b8946acb909232e5f64.PNG

And it worked a charm!

Second Stage

We were drawn against Japan for the second round, and I was pleased with the draw, and even more pleased with the result! Conan got a quick double, whilst Martial scored on the half time whistle!

Quarter Finals

The draw got tougher however, as we were drawn against the mighty Germany!

IMG_5116.thumb.PNG.e76b081835f5f3c33dd5703e3dddd2af.PNG

Not so mighty now are they! Our two wingers combining to defeat the Germans!

Semi Finals

IMG_5117.thumb.PNG.70818dce9bcfc6e0f4a56fbc64a9c0ba.PNG

Was really worried for this game, but we destroyed the Spaniards and make it to the Final!

 

World Cup Final

Our opponents were Brazil

From the first whistle, it was tense, as you can imagine.

The 79000 fans from each country singing, shouting, hoping,

Half Time 

IMG_5118.thumb.PNG.09a9f23ac2cfaa26b7a891cab8350b6b.PNG

Douglas Costa put Brazil in the lead, but Pogba's free kick smashes of the post and in. All is up for grabs with 45 minutes to go...

TRADEGY

"Gabriel Paulista heads it home for Brazil, is it the end for France?"

The score read 2-1 for mere minutes before a Pogba screamer equalizes.

Extra time begins...

IMG_5119.thumb.PNG.f1c45ec86b21fc76b104d99ea6b0323d.PNG

AND FRANCE WIN THE FIFA WORLD CUP, WITH 2 GOALS IN 4 MINUTES!!

Thats one trophy of our list, maybe the hardest one...

Assists

A tie at the top between Pogba and Fekir, I'm not complaining!

 

Goals

Another tie between Pogba and Martial with 5 a piece.
