FIFA 15 Manchester United And Manchester City Line-up —— Second Half

Well, welcome back here. Next, I will tell you the the second half of the match.

The second half started as the first had begun, with De Gea at his brilliant best to deny Aguero. For some reason the United defence seemed to stand off the little striker in the box and he picked his spot in the far corner. Luckily for United, De Gea was alert to the danger and threw himself to his left again to make the save.

FIFA 15

Next to go into the book for City was captain Vincent Kompany for a very late challenge on Rooney, which left the United captain flattened. In the past few weeks, Jesus Navas has come in for a lot of criticism and after he back-heeled the ball out of play for no particular reason he was hauled off. With Samir Nasri still deemed too troublesome, it was Aleksander Kolarov who came on with Milner switching to the right flank.

The change immediately paid dividends as City hit United on the counter. After the ball was (partially) cleared by Marouane Fellaini, who we forgot was playing, it was played into the path of Kolarov. Every United defender had stepped up to catch the Serbian in an offside trap but sadly Marcos Rojo didn’t get the memo and played Kolarov on. Although known for his fierce left-footed shots, Kolarov elected to curl the ball into the corner with his right to give his team the lead. As if Rojo couldn’t have done more damage, he then proceeded to tackle De Gea as Kolarov was shooting.

United were rattled and as on so many occasions over the past few years, they looked to Rooney for inspiration and he so nearly pulled it off. Picking the ball up on the edge of the box, Rooney left Toure for dead with a lovely piece of skill but he rushed his shot, putting it wide of Hart’s goal. The United skipper then forced a world-class save out of Hart when he hit a shot with bend and dip from the edge of the area.

Van Gaal pushed for the equaliser by calling for Adnan Januzaj and Angel Di Maria but his team was about to be sucker-punched in the cruellest way possible. In the final seconds as United threw everyone forward, the Red Devils were caught on the counter as Aguero and City substitute Dzeko broke. The Bosnian played the ball through to Aguero and the City man kept his cool to lift the ball over De Gea. City close the gap on Chelsea whilst United drop down to fourth.

FIFA 15 Manchester United And Manchester City Line-up —— First Half

Manchester derby has taken a more important role at the top of the Premier League, since Sheikh Mansour arrive at Manchester City. They need a repeat the real statement of intent which a 6-1 victory at Old Trafford a few years ago when play Manchester United on Sunday.

Having slipped behind their arch rivals in the table, this game is pivotal for a number of reasons and we couldn’t wait to see what it is going to happen. So, we decided that it was time for FIFA 15 Manchester United vs Manchester City.

FIFA 15 Manchester United vs Manchester City

FIFA 15 Ultimate Team TOTW 30 featuring Cristiano Ronaldo. Now obviously the first issue we have is that of team selection but thankfully for Man United, this wasn’t a particularly hard task. Louis van Gaal’s side have been in excellent form recently and we can’t see him making any changes before the derby.

Although, having said that, it is now a certainty that the Dutch tactician will change to something like a 3-6-1. Meanwhile, for City, we thought Manuel Pellegrini would have to go with three in midfield to match United so we brought James Milner into the team at the expense of Edin Dzeko.

City got off to a quick start, as you would expect given their situation, and following a sublime ball over the top by Milner, Sergio Aguero brought the first save of the match out of David De Gea. The Argentine’s first-time volley was a thing of beauty but De Gea was equal to it, diving to his left to tip it around for a corner. United responded instantly, though, as club captain Wayne Rooney was played through on goal; luckily for City, Joe Hart was out quickly to meet him.

The first booking of the game came when City midfielder Yaya Toure lunged in on Ander Herrera as the Spaniard broke through. Herrera, advancing on the City goal, forced Toure into making a professional foul, although we’re not sure it required so much. Needless to say, he was booked for his troubles. If this was a game for cool heads it was sorely lacking them as Toure’s challenge showed. Players were passing the ball to the opposition almost at will and at one point the usually reliable Milner just ran the ball out of play.

This is the first half performance of fighting. What an exciting game, is not it? Now, let us look forward to the second half of the game.

With the end of the FIFA 15 season currently, the most popular football game, fast approaching, more and more fans put their eyes on the Ultimate Team of new Season. Don’t worry, it will be revealed on the official forums until April 22.

FIFA 15 Team

The rules that all interested gamers need to follow are:

– choices need to be consistent with persistence but should not have been in-form in Ultimate Team before;

– 6 English league players, 2 French, 2 German, 2 Italian and 2 Spanish

The organizers are also saying that ratings should not be linked to any of the players that are part of the Team of the Season and that EA Sports will take care of them.

The announcement adds, “The teams are decided by you, the community, by way of discussion. This is NOT a vote. Each thread has a community member leading it, ultimately responsible for deciding the team.”

Discussion threads for Gold, Silver and Bronze Team of the Season packages for Ultimate Team in FIFA 15 are offered.

Once the community selects its players of the season, the development team will take their choices into account and will deliver its own set of players once the big European championships are over.

Ultimate Team has become the most important multiplayer side of FIFA 15 in the past few years and the developers are EA Sports are constantly looking for new ways to draw gamers in and keep them focused on getting new packs.

The company has also improved the underlying mechanics by announcing mechanics like the Price Range, which makes sure that for each player a minimum and the maximum value is used in the transfer market.

The concept is designed to make sure that as many players as possible get a chance to use superstars like Messi, Ronaldo or Ibrahimovic in their line-ups.

Overall security measures for the Ultimate Team accounts has also been improved on all platforms.

The Analysis About When The TOTS of FUT 15 Will Be Released

The gamers always ask constantly about when the TOTS of FUT 15 will be released after Team of the Year was released in January. Although we can’t give you the accurate answer, following are some correct analysis about the time of releasing TOTS of FUT 15.

TOTS of FUT 15

During the release of TOTY and TOTS teams it is possible to make big improvements to our teams and make amazing deals in the transfer market. That’s why it is normal to see the FIFA community eager and waiting for the launch of the first Team of the Season. The usual way things go is that EA Sports doesn’t announce when it will happen. In the best of the chances, they do it one week before the release date, but it is very unlikely to happen. That is, if you really want to know when the TOTS of FUT 15 will be released, so keep reading and all will be revealed.

Year after year, EA follows a very strict calendar. Looking to the release dates of the previous years, it is possible to get a good idea about when the TOTS of FUT 15 will begin. In FIFA 12 and FIFA 13, the first TOTS was launched respectively at May 2 and May 8. However, in FIFA 14 the expected date (May 7) was anticipated two weeks. This was an exception obviously due to the World Cup. What sets the date of the first TOTS is the calendar of domestic leagues. This season, the end of major European leagues is in line with what happened in 2013 and previous years. That’s why the first TOTS of FUT 15 should be announced at May 6, 2015 at 4pm (UK time) and released in packs two hours later. Since these teams are always announced at Wednesdays, the alternative dates are April 29 or May 13.

Like it happened in previous years, the Community TOTS will be the first one to be launched. In fact, this has been officially confirmed by EA Sports that began to consult the community about the most suitable players for these three teams (gold, silver and bronze) on April 1. In FUT 14 that happened on April 2. That is, exactly three weeks before the TOTS launch. Applying the rule to this year could mean that we would know the Community TOTS on the 22nd of April, something that is out of the question since that is the deadline EA has to hear gamers opinions. The date of the 29th of April is a valid date but the strongest date is still May the 6th because in FIFA 13 and previous years there were always two weeks between the deadline and the TOTS launch.

May the 6th is also the expected release date published in the popular FIFA Game News calendar. For those who don’t know, this calendar aggregates the dates of the most important FIFA 15 events. Despite having been published ten months ago, almost all the dates actually came out to be true. The FIFA 14 calendar also reached a 95% success rate, achieving correct predictions, amongst others, the dates of TOTY and TOTS. It is the most reliable source that can be found but the truth will only be known when the TOTS comes out.

Obviously subject to error, here are the expected dates for the TOTS of FUT 15:

Gold Community TOTS – May 6th to 13th, 2015
Silver Community TOTS – May 6th to 13th, 2015
Bronze Community TOTS – May 6th to 13th, 2015
Barclays Premier League TOTS – May 13th to 20th, 2015
Football League TOTS – May 15th to 18th, 2015
Bundesliga TOTS- May 20th to 27th, 2015
Serie A TOTS – May 27th to June 3rd, 2015
Ligue 1 TOTS – May 27th to June 3rd, 2015
Liga BBVA TOTS – June 3rd to 10th, 2015
Rest of the World TOTS – June 5th to 8th, 2015
EAS FC TOTS – June 8th to 12th, 2015

Every Ultimate Team player knows how important the TOTY and TOTS teams are. So let’s start the countdown and wait for TOTS of FUT being released.

FIFA 15 Ultimate Team Down Result From Server Maintenance

FIFA 15 Ultimate Team was down, the mostly reason was that EA did another of their periodic FIFA 15 Ultimate Team server maintenance sessions on 2 April.

FIFA 15 servers

The process began at 8.30am Pacific Time (4.30pm in the UK) and is scheduled to last roughly three hours. But you know how these things can go, so FIFA 15’s Ultimate Team portion may not return at 11.30am/7.30pm on the dot.

Update: As you may have expected, the maintenance has been extended to 2pm Pacific/10pm UK.

Update 2: It should be back now. Rest of the original story follows.

This maintenance session also affects the web app and mobile apps. You won’t be able to use those either while this is going on. EA isn’t giving any precise details about what this maintenance entails, so it’s probably safe to assume they’re not introducing new transfer market features or anything.
