How to play eFootball Master League Sprint?

In eFootball Master League Sprint, you will have to manage a team over an entire season. Users will be in charge of everything from scouting talents, training players, managing players and finance, to rotating the lineup based on synergy and form. You can follow these steps to get started with your eFootball Master League Sprint journey and win it all:

Select Your Team and League

First, you will have to choose a team and league to kick-start your Master League Journey. This team will also include original Master League players like Castolo and Minanda.

Develop Synergy

Most of the matches in this event will be ‘Synergy Matches’, where the outcome will depend on simulation. The simulation results will depend on your Dream Team's Synergy. It is like the total strength of your team. The higher your team's synergy is than your opposition the better the chances of winning.

Strong players will boost the team synergy. It will also depend on the player's form and fatigue. The team's status will change over the season due to injuries, bad form of players and more. So, you will have to manage the workload of the players accordingly to win the league.

Master the Episodes

Ahead of every matchday, episodes will pop up. These will be either positive or negative. Positive episodes will boost a player's form and develop them rapidly. You may even get to sign players at a low price.

Negative episodes will trigger incidents like player injuries that will test your squad management skills. You need to make wise choices during the episodes to help your team win the league.

Be Smart in Player Transfers

eFootball Master League Sprint has a transfer window that will let you sign new players in exchange of points your team earns by playing and winning matches.

Here, you should pick players based on the team requirements. If you need a ‘CB’, sign a CB even if you have enough points to sign one of your favourites. You will also have to be smart while releasing the players. Releasing players is just as important to keep the budget in check. Stronger players will give higher sales points.

Grow Club's Popularity

You will have to increase your club's fan base with the help of your team. Hitting a milestone in the total number of supporters gained will unlock special rewards.

At the end of the event, the top players will also be rewarded with an epic Castolo card. Its your management decisions that will decide on how your team will advance further in this event.
