I have to post this story of how the EPL season just finished in my game, on FM09.
Going into the last day, Arsenal were first, 3 points ahead of Chelsea. Their GD was 3 better. They were playing Wigan (19th). Chelsea were playing Crystal Palace(17th).
4 Minutes in to the round, Wigan take the lead. They then completely outplay the Gunners, keeping Adebayor, Vela, Fab, Eduardo, Guardado, and Nasri quiet., to win 1-0. Chelsea, on the other hand, are having no trouble with Palace, and are 2-0 up just before the hour mark. But then Cech has to go off injured, and with all 3 subs gone, it's John Terry in goals. He somehow keeps a clean sheet, and Chelsea hold on for a 2-0 win.
That leaves both clubs at the top, with the same W/D/L, Same Goals scored for and against, same GD, same points, same freaking yellow card count. So they go to a play off.
It's relatively dull for the first 40 minutes, but then all hell breaks loose. From the 43rd to 51st minute (Ignoring HT) 5 goals are scored. Arsenal now lead 3-2. It stays like that into Injury time, until Joe Cole scores a stunner, and ties it up. ET doesn't provide any goals, and Chelsea manage to pull off a 4-2 win on penalties.
Greatest finish to a season in history?
