Brilliant. I especially love that I could kick the ball through the net sideways. I'm already cheating, so what's one more little exploit? :D

I had an unhealthy amount of fun spamming the interfere button (on everyone :>) while trying to score a goal by myself. Funny and fun to play!

It was enjoyable to play but the ref being able to kick the ball is a nightmare in places. I did have a good time but I'm not sure it has much replayability for me.

Nice job!  Happy to see other soccer themed entries lol.  Only comment I'd have other than the text bug you already mentioned is that I was able to get the goalie stuck in the "interfere" state and just push him off the field leaving the goal open.  Otherwise everything seemed to work as intended.  Nice art and sounds too!

Nice job with this one! I love the artstyle and music. The game itself was a lot of fun too. However I did feel like as the ref, I should be helping them win by like giving out red cards to people who don't deserve them instead of just being another player on blue team, but still a fun little game!

Love the take on the theme! The art and music is also really good - fits the game well.  And I love that there's more than just one way to influence the game, really gives it some depth. Nicely done!
