I just played a game in career mode with AZ against RBC on Semi-Pro.
When I got in front late in the 1st half, I decided to lean back in the 2nd an try to play on posession. I'd noticed the forwards in FIFA2005 do not put much pressure on the defense so I figured it was worth a try.
To my amazement I didn't have any trouble at all keeping the ball, playing it around amongst the defenders, sometimes passing it to the keeper or the midfielders, making triangles for some variation. The AI just stood there (the opponent as well as my own players).
So I played through the 2nd half with 100% ball possession.
It's a really cheap tactic for when you get in front but it shouldn't have been possible at all to do so.
It was a 4minute/half game but it was so easy, I could've done it for 6, 8 or even 10.
