What Inteam is

Inteam is an online football manager. You run a club: you pick the formation and the lineup, appoint the captain and the set-piece takers, and keep an eye on your players’ form and the table. The game plays the matches on schedule, and your decisions decide how far the club will climb.

The essentials in a minute

• You get a club with 22 players in the lowest division of your country.
• Every league has 10 clubs. A season is 18 rounds: everyone plays everyone twice, home and away.
• The game runs four times faster than real time. A season lasts three months, and there are four seasons a year: spring, summer, autumn and winter. One season is one game year, so players get a year older every season.
• Rounds are played on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 20:00 UTC, whether you are in the game or not.
• The league champion goes up a division, and the weakest clubs go down.
• Every country has its own pyramid of leagues. Most clubs are run by the game (they are bots). A new manager takes over one of them.
