Good evening, everyone,

Something strange happened to me this evening during my VFFA match: the opposition opened the scoring in the 87th minute, I equalised in the 90+ minute, and my opponent scored a second goal at exactly the same time. Final score: 1–2 (photo 1).

However, the match seems to have been recorded as a draw:

1. This appears in the details of my matches for the season: two draws are recorded, whereas I only have one ‘officially’ (photo 2);

2. The total number of goals conceded over the season corresponds to a 1-1 draw, i.e. 11 goals conceded in total. This is confirmed by the match details (photo 3).

Is it possible that a bug occurred in the 90+ minute and that the game awarded my opponent a ghost goal? I understand that the same mishap occurred recently in the 81st minute of some matches.

What can be done? I would have preferred to go to a penalty shoot-out in this situation rather than being knocked out like this…

Thanks in advance, love!

There’s now extra time in VF

The matches have been glitching a lot over the past few weeks.
Could it be down to the workshop, with the machines updating and overloading the servers?

Skyz: Les matchs bug énormement depuis quelques semaines.
Ca viendrait pas de l'atelier avec les machines qui s'actualisent et surchargeraient les serveurs?

If that’s the case, I’m ready to shut up shop: we’ll switch everything off! Temporary redundancy!

It’s infuriating to be sidelined like this, though...

Corrected.

aymeric45: Corrigé.

Spot on, thank you very much! 🙏🏼

As luck would have it, I’ve won the tab – what a match! 😄

Radio: Impeccable, merci beaucoup ! 🙏🏼

L'histoire veut que je remporte les tab, quel match 😄

Can’t wait to see the look on Jérôme’s face when he logs back in!

🤣🤣🤣

Kevin-7130: Hâte de voir la tête de Jérôme a sa reconnexion !

I sent him a message straight after the match to congratulate him, and another one a little later to apologise for the emotional rollercoaster 😅

Not exactly a good feeling being on the wrong end of it. Absolute bullshit to have it be like this

I can confirm it’s really tough, lads, but that’s all part of the game.
Have a great radio season

Hello.

It might go against the grain, but once the match is over, it’s over. There have already been glitchy matches in the recent past that lasted over 200 minutes, but we didn’t change the scores because of that.

In this case, if several scores end up being changed just because one person complained that there were two goals in added time (which, as far as I know, has happened before in football), I think that’s a real shame, and not something we should be doing.

Demi-cerveau: Bonjour.

Peut être à contre courant, mais quand le match est joué, il est joué. Il y a déjà eu dans un passé récent des matchs bugués qui duraient plus de 200 minutes, on a pas modifié les scores pour autant.

Là, si plusieurs scores se retrouvent modifiés parce que 1 personne a râlé parce qu'il y a eu 2 buts dans le temps additionnel (ce qui, à ma connaissance, s'est déjà vu dans le football), je trouve ça franchement dommage, et pas souhaitable.

That’s not the point.

All the post-match statistics confirm that this goal was not recorded anywhere in the database; therefore, it does not exist, yet it distorts the result of a knockout match. I’ve provided plenty of evidence to support this, and I’d like to thank Aymeric for stepping in.

I can assure you that if the roles had been reversed, I would have reported the issue too. I believe it’s our responsibility as players to speak up when a bug occurs, and the community has been doing that well so far.

It’s a shame for Jérôme, and we all appreciate his sportsmanship. Let’s hope the rest of the community takes inspiration from this. Have a great season too, Jérôme, and once again, I’m really sorry 🙏🏼

Radio: La question n'est pas là.

Tous les indicateurs d'après-match confirment que ce but n'a été comptabilisé nulle part dans la base de données, donc qu'il n'existe pas mais qu'il fausse un résultat de match à élimination directe. J'ai fourni toutes les infos abondants dans ce sens et je remercie Aymeric d'être intervenu.

Je peux t'assurer que si les rôles avaient été inversés j'aurai également fait remonter l'information. Je crois qu'il est de notre responsabilité en tant que joueurs de préven...

Of course it is – that’s the whole point.
One score gets corrected, but loads of others won’t.
Strangely enough, when it comes to you, you suddenly have to be more pragmatic...

Tchub: Bien sûr que si la question est là.
On corrige un score, mais plein d'autres ne le seront pas.
Bizarrement quand ça te concerne toi, faut directement être plus pragmatique...

I am not responsible for the fact that other scores were not amended due to a bug.

I was treated unfairly and I raised this with Aymeric, who intervened not on my behalf but to ensure the final score reflected reality. The outcome of the tabulation has nothing to do with his intervention.

I urge anyone who has experienced a similar issue to inform Aymeric. I have done what I needed to do for myself; it is up to everyone else to do the same.

I do not understand where this animosity is coming from.

As far as I’m concerned, there is no animosity in what I’m saying.

However, the two cases mentioned seem different to me. In the first instance, there was an identical repetition of two actions by the referee within a few seconds of each other, which resulted in two goals by the same scorer.

In your case, there are two separate goals, for two different teams, scored in stoppage time. I’ll point out straight away that this sort of situation has happened before, and that it wasn’t considered a bug.

Secondly, there is an inconsistency between the match result displayed and how it is recorded in your club’s results tab for this season. Your interpretation is that the match result was incorrect and that the results shown in your club’s record are correct. I think one could reasonably take the opposite view as well, and say that it was the record that was incorrect by counting it as a draw. Perhaps because the match result was finalised by the game before it had actually ended. We’ll probably never really know for sure what happened.

What I do notice, however, is that following your appeal, Aymeric intervened and made a change, which also altered the results of at least one other match, if I’ve correctly understood the comments subsequently made by another manager regarding your case.

I think Aymeric simply removed an update to the added time for all matches played on VF between 8 pm and 9.30 pm. If that is the case, I don’t think it’s a good idea and it sets a dangerous precedent. And I would have made exactly the same comment about anyone else.

I wish you all a lovely day.

Demi-cerveau: Pour ma part, il n'y a pas d'animosité dans mon propos.

Maintenant, les deux cas évoqués me semblent différents. Sur le premier sujet, il y avait répétition à l'identique de deux actions du mdm à quelques secondes d'intervalle, ce qui avait donné 2 buts par le même buteur.

Dans ton cas, il y a deux buts distincts, pour 2 équipes différentes, dans les arrêts de jeu. Je précise de suite que ce genre de situation s'est déjà vue dans le passé, et que ça n'avait pas été considéré comme un bug.

...

It seemed to me that the animosity was coming more from Tchub.

Perhaps your reasoning is correct; I’m open to being proven wrong. However, Aymeric has now made his decision and interpreted things in this way. I trust the game’s creator to use his judgement and to interpret scripts that we don’t have access to.

I simply didn’t expect to cause such a fuss over nothing.
