This is definitely not correct and hopefully this will not happen in the final build!

the advantage call made here is exactly the same as in FIFA 10, there's nothing wrong with it at all. As electrickeeper said, a yellow card worthy foul was committed and advantage given. At a break in play, the ref got out the yellow.

I loved this video. Funny thing is that it actually comes from playing the AI instead of another human. I really gotta give it to the team on this one, its one of the few games where the AI looks good without actively "cheating" constantly. I liked how Lyon was fairly conservative in sending their men forward while playing Chelsea, since in previous games every club would send almost everyone to attack no matter the situation. I hope that the sliders this year have more on an impact, because I haven't felt much of a difference in play styles since they were introduced.

The only thing that really gets me is the fact that its still very easy to make clean interceptions on the dribbler. I wish there were more collisions when meeting a dribbler head on instead of just cleanly swiping the ball with no contact whatsoever.

Agreed.

And that yellow on JT should have been given much earlier. After JT's pushes the Real player off the ball, the Chelsea player (I think Lampard?) gains possession and makes an errant pass. I guess he didn't have possession long enough for the game to register it.

I will look up the direct rules from FIFA.

[Rules]

The referee may play advantage whenever an infringement or offence occurs.
The referee should consider the following circumstances in deciding whether to
apply the advantage or stop play:
• the severity of the offence: if the infringement warrants an expulsion, the
referee must stop play and send off the player unless there is a subsequent
opportunity to score a goal
• the position where the offence was committed: the closer to the
opponent’s goal, the more effective it can be
• the chances of an immediate, promising attack
• the atmosphere of the match
The decision to penalise the original offence must be taken within a few
seconds.
If the offence warrants a caution, it must be issued at the next stoppage.
However, unless there is a clear advantage, it is recommended that the referee
stops play and cautions the player immediately. If the caution is NOT issued at

the next stoppage, it cannot be shown later.

Disclaimer:

So from my previous marks towards the video with the foul is not valid as you guys are on the money!

Non Disclaimer:

I still think it is messed up Dumb rule: should stop play once possession is lost to card instead of waiting for the ball to go out. If my team screws up like that, we will immediately go into possession for the next 30 minutes hoping the ref forgets lol.
