Welcome to Match Day, the soccer arcade game. Match Day is no ordinary soccer game but a 3D action arcade style game where you control the action. The game is seen from a 'camera-eye' view. The camera automatically scans the pitch. Each team has its own colour strip (Red shirts, white shorts for the Home team, blue shirts white shorts of the "away" team) and is made up of a goalkeeper, defenders, midfield players and attackers. During the game, each player moves into position according to the standard football rules (i.e. according to whih side has possession, where the ball is, what position he plays in, etc). You have control of the player in possession of the ball or that player who is best placed to tackle or intercept the ball. With this player you can dribble, tackle, pass, head, block, trap, take corners and throw-ins and perform virtually all of the skills of real football.
