France Running Down The Clock ...

[greenmachine]

French time wasting ..

1-0 down to France they get a corner they pass it to the front corner of the box it this then past back to the taker and he walks the ball to the corner and faces the flag with the ball.

I waited thinking this is some sort of AI bug then it dawned on me they were runnning the clock down so I took a player out to him and put in a slide tackle I thought Id get a foul against me but the ref gave them a throw in..

So they took it played the ball to about 22yrds out from goal and hit it back to the player who took the throw and he again walked with the ball into the corner with him facing the flag..

I got a wee bit miffed so I dived in both feet but the ref again only gave them a throw in...

So it wasn't an AI glitch but it looks like time wasting when they were 1-0 up with the clock running down.

I just had the same experience. Trezeguet did the same thing. They were 1-0 ahead and he literally dribbled the ball next to the corner flag and waited for me to attack and try to steal the ball from him. He didn't even move unless I attacked. when I try to steal the ball from him he even took it further and tried to protect the ball and I think he was expecting a corner or something It was very cool

And also I just saw that when you or other team have an injured player and having a treatment out side of the field, that player runs back on the field after his treatment and they show him running back to his position in a small screen on the left bottom corner. I thought that was very cool too...

This was present in previous PES games actually, but maybe they expanded upon it for this version.
