About This Game
Introduces the series' first tournament mode alongside exhibition matches, with improved goalkeeper intelligence and realistic ball physics that set new standards for arcade soccer.
The 'Dramatic Mode' system creates cinematic comebacks - trailing teams gain temporary stat boosts in final minutes, recreating real soccer's nail-biting finishes.
Runs on SNK's Hyper Neo Geo 64 hardware but maintains classic 2D sprite aesthetics. Became a staple in Japanese game centers and Latin American arcades throughout the late 90s.
