Big Match Striker challenges real football fans to battle head to head in the ultimate championship of tactics and trivia.

Football fans of all levels will need to combine the skills of chairman, manager, player and fan to succeed as the Big Match Striker experience is a unique combination of football management strategy and trivia. Highly competitive, the game challenges every aspect of football fans' knowledge and strategic skills as players customize and steer their teams to league and cup glory.
