questions correctly will be ranked in the higher position
which is being contested.

click a player and answer the question correctly. To shoot

will automatically select its move. You are required to
answer the next question correctly to regain possession.
If you answer incorrectly your opponent will complete its
move.

'Free Kick' resets the question timer giving you more time
to answer: 'Pass' gives you a new question of the same yardage:

Pass is unavailable, in the semi final both Pass and Freekick
