It focus on the European Champions Cup. If the player won the Champions Cup, the ending credits will only appear if the player beats a South American team in the Intercontinental Cup. The game was a bestseller in the UK charts for three months.[1] Game modes and optionsThe game allows the player to play friendlies or the Champions' Cup. Options allow choosing game length (from 4 to 90 minutes), difficulty and player change control. GameplayGameplay is simple, and works only with two of the buttons of the gamepad – "B" is used to pass the ball low, and "C" to lob the ball. While a button to shoot is absent, if a button is held pressed, when released the ball goes at a much higher speed. The directional button can also be used to give the aftertouch to lobbed balls and change direction or touching the ball backwards with the heel in low passes. Optionally, the "A" button can be used to swap to the nearest player, if the automatic option is disabled. The game puts several tactics at the disposal of the player, while the computer has a predefined tactic for each team. Each tactic has its own advantage: the 4–3–3 tactic using a sweeper is the only one that allows a player to recover if the goalkeeper is beaten and 4–4–2 allows midfield control from the wings, for instance. Alternate versionsWhile European Club Soccer was only released for the European market, the Japanese market received J-League Champion Soccer, and North America yielded World Trophy Soccer. The Japanese port, as the name points out, is based on a league system with J-League teams. The North American version replaced European clubs with worldwide national teams, but with a much more limited selection. The winning screens on both games feature a player and a goalkeeper raising the champions cup, which indicates the original title. Similar game titleIn 1989, Arcadia Systems released an arcade game entitled "World Trophy Soccer", this being the same exact title as European Club Soccer's North American port. Though the two games are similar, the arcade game shows the point of view of the runner heading towards the opponents goal while the other shows a sideways pan of the field. In 1988, Arcadia Systems' parent company, Mastertronic, was merged with Virgin Games thus Virgin had access to that particular game title. It was released on Amiga, Atari ST and Commodore 64. When Virgin obtained the official licence for the 1990 World Cup, the game was reworked into Italia '90. See also
