Cup, Zico Cup, Exhibition, Training, and Configuration. During a match you manage the players by using the SNES/Super Famicom mouse (sold separately) or the controller. The actions on-screen are designated on a HUD display window provided below the bottom of your screen. The arrow-shaped pointer is used to highlight positioned players by numbered icons, then watch as the action unfolds on a plane-sided viewpoint on the top of your screen.The game is mostly in the Japanese language although some words are in the English language.
