About the game
Get together with your friends and have a Soccer match! To honor the Soccer Championship in Africa 2010 the czech author Jirka Mikoláš releases a Soccer card game, that is both easy to learn, quick to play and fun to live through! You can have a friendly match, or get more involved and play through a small championship or a series of matches! Two starter decks are available, featuring Czech Republic vs. Germany and Slovakia vs. UK. Many nicely illustrated cards with well-known players are available... of course you would not find the exact names in newspapers ;) But you recognize them surely! More countries will be available also for you all to mix and play with in your decks (France, Italy, Netherlands and Spain). Therefore you can play a player vs. player match, or multiplayer up to 8 people. Dice are also featured in the game and used to get various poker-like combinations for you to score the best combination. These combinations are always compared and the better combination wins the current turn!

Questions and answers
Goal! Game supports 2 players according to the catalogue. This is the publisher’s listed player count, so the game is designed for exactly that number of participants. Variants for other group sizes, if any, are described in the rulebook of your edition, so check it before setting up a different configuration.
The listed playing time for Goal! Game is 30 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Goal! Game for ages 8 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Goal! Game has a complexity rating of 2.5 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game.
