The JAR and JAD are the Original Java ME Version for phones and emulators. How to install.

About

Five kicks each, then sudden death. When shooting, choose one of nine target zones with the matching number key and stop the power meter in the green - blast it and it may sail over the bar, scuff it and the keeper reaches it easily. When saving, watch the run-up and press a number to dive. Keepers get sharper at Pro and Legend level.

Objective: Score more penalties than the CPU in the shoot-out.

Modes: Amateur, Pro, Legend
