The basic principles of soccer - playing the ball into open spaces, drawing defenders away, then passing to the open player - have been programmed wonderfully. Working the ball from side to side, however, is likely to be effective. Cranking the ball up the middle of the pitch won't accomplish anything 95% of the time, even with a star like Michael Owen on the receiving end. Instead of jamming on the burst, however, players will be forced to pass - intelligently - just like real soccer players. EA toned down the speed burst for 2002 FIFA World Cup, and its effectiveness has been further reduced in FIFA Soccer 2003.
As exhilarating as the breakaways could be, they were surely the most unrealistic part of a solid game.

Veterans of the FIFA series will remember the power and glory of the speed burst, which frequently turned an innocent midfield possession into a one-on-one breakaway with the opposing goalie.

Fortunately, the FIFA series has steadily improved - taking advantage of the technological improvements of PC and console systems - and not too many drastic changes are needed. FIFA Soccer 2003 follows the typical Electronic Arts' pattern for a sports series: improvements are made, but not many are drastic. Soccer gets a raw deal in the US, but the FIFA Soccer series has been a welcome treat for soccer fans ever since 1993's FIFA International Soccer on the Sega Genesis.
