This being a World Cup game

Still, minor gameplay bugs aside, there's plenty of fun to be had here. This being a World Cup game, there's a range of modes beyond the standard FIFA Ultimate Team Coins pack, that cheap fifa 14 coins have been designed to make the most out of the anticipation surrounding the big competition. One of the coolest is known as "Story of Qualifying", a mode which challenges you to recreate - or rewrite history. Whether you're dropped into a game playing as England, who find themselves 5-0 up against San Marino and have to score another five in the last thirty minutes of the game, or you're asked to take control of Ireland during their qualifier against Kazakhstan, where they found themselves 1-0 down and gained a penalty in the 90th minute, it's up to you to achieve a number of objectives in each match, that may or may not be historically accurate.
While most of the challenges let you play along with a friend, there's more than a few that use FIFA's "Be a Pro" mode, which locks you to control of a single player. Apparently an incredibly popular FIFA mode, it's never been one we've really gelled with, as you're left relying on your AI controlled team to not massively cock everything up - and there's only so much one man can do to correct it. Thankfully, these challenges are few and far between this time around - and the other big mistake from the last World Cup game has been rectified here too, in that you can now choose which difficulty you play on. In the last World Cup game, the game's challenges were locked to a specific difficulty level (usually at the higher end of the FIFA 14 Coins seven-level difficulty barometer, which ranges from Amateur to World Class), effectively locking out anyone who sucked at FIFA, but still fancied having a go. This time round, you can choose for yourself - but annoyingly, it only starts at Semi-Pro, which is the game's equivalent of "normal". While it's certainly better than last time (as we can at least hold our own on Semi-Pro), if you aren't good enough to play at Semi-Pro, then you're still effectively locked out of part of the game - at least, until you get better...
However, Story of Qualifying is a mode that still has yet to really hit its stride. When the finals take place, a new mode, called Story of the Finals will unlock, with challenges being added on a daily basis as the tournament proceeds based on matches that have taken place. Whether you'll be recreating England's amazing win, or (possibly more likely) avenging their defeat on penalties, this is a great way to be involved with the tournament as it goes on - and, most importantly, all the challenges that get added will all be free! All you need is an internet connection, and the game will automatically update.
Beyond the innovative Story of... modes, there's the usual range of modes and features here, each with a World Cup flavour. There's Captain your Country, which locks you to a single player in Be a Pro mode style, as you vie for a place on the national team, and aim to eventually work your way up the captaincy, alongside the more traditional World Cup and Road to the FIFA World Cup modes - the former dropping you in at the finals, while the other lets you go through the trials and turmoil of qualifying - although you'll likely manage more than a 1 all draw against Montenegro.
The World Cup group stage continues, and some teams were sent home. In the latest game between Colombia and Japan, Colombia beat Japan 4-1 to reach the last 16 which ended the hopes of Japanese.
Colombia began the game brightly, with nine new starters from the previous game out to make an impression. Japan created the clearest opening of the early exchanges, however, with Makoto Hasebe’s raking pass picking out Yoshito Okubo who turned Eder Balanta inside out before snatching his shot into a crowed of bodies.
With the early goal, any argument for cautious tactics from either side was largely null and void. As Japan looked to hash out a reply, neat interplay between Okubo and Shinji Kagawa saw the Manchester United midfielder create space for himself well before forcing David Ospina to dive low to his right with a mis-hit shot.
Half time later, Colombia should have all but ended Japan’s hopes. With the last touch of the half Japan were level. Honda cut inside from right wing and delivered a delicate cross which found Okazaki, who had got goal-side of Carlos Valdes to head beyond Ospina.
The introduction of Rodriguez and Carlos Carbonero made the South Americans emerge with bright intentions.
Japan remained positive to the last minute despite the setback.
The biggest cheer of the night brust out when the whistle went. When Japan with one draw and two lose, one point, blowed out unfortunately. Colombia Buy FIFA 14 Coins, three wins, nine points as the winner of Group C stormed into the Round of 16.
