A fast Google translate roughly places this as, “Stand 3-1 because I was able to successfully prevail in the Rock Paper Scissors!” Frankly, it’s a bit absurd to learn, however that is the kind of fast pondering EA displayed when it sought to treatment the scenario. Our servers are down? Not our drawback. Flip a coin, or play rock, paper, scissors, or one thing.
It appears as if skilled leagues are a little bit of an afterthought over at EA. If a soccer match is postponed as a consequence of climate circumstances, the ref doesn’t name up the managers and say, “alright, pick a number between 1 and 10.”
The EA Sports FIFA Twitter page has but to touch upon the scenario. It’s trying unlikely they’ll.
