What it does

On reveal: If played in round 5 or later, +3 Power to this card.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 4 RAM to play and brings 6 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Media cards broadcast Power to your other lanes.

The site, in 2004

A football news website covering the international game, published in 18 languages.

Its Goal 50 ranks the season's best players and its NXGN list picks out the best under-19s. By mid-2023 it was the fifth most popular sports news site in the UK, with 1.5 million monthly British readers.

Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
