Matchday Mobile’s Alpha was the first opportunity for anyone outside the company to see the game in action. An exclusive audience who put the early version through its paces. Would the Matchday team be able to compete? Which football players would be the most popular? Here's a look at some of the standout moments and stats from the Alpha.

🏃‍♂️💨 Danny27d's Impressive Journey: Our most engaged player, Danny27d, played a whopping 203 matches, reaching Platinum III with 305 division points. Jaw dropping.

7️⃣-0️⃣ ZoeSued's Stunning Victory: ZoeSued achieved the biggest win, with an astounding 7-0 match. A remarkable display of offensive prowess which no one on the Matchday team had ever seen before.

🚌⛔ LeBronson's Bus Parking Skills: With 9 games all ending in 0-0 draws, LeBronson showed us what a world class defence can do. If there was an award for “Being Unbreakable”, this would have won it.

🎖️ Marwil's Winning Record: Showing frankly remarkable dominance, Marwil's record stood out with 9 wins, 1 draw and ZERO losses. Not bad Marwil, not bad.

🥅⚽ Havesomebacon’s Scoring Efficiency: Averaging 2.6 goals per game, the lone Matchday representative to make the list did so in style. Will he reveal his secrets to us? He will not.

7️⃣7️⃣7️⃣ ArmKnight's Streak: Winning 7 matches in a row, ArmKnight took the title for longest winning streak. Unreal.

Football Legends on the Virtual Pitch

• Lionel Messi's Popularity: Not surprisingly, Lionel Messi was the most selected, playing 341 matches. His virtual version mirrors his real-world reliability and skill.
  ‍
• Messi II: In a bewilderingly amazing stat - Digital Messi managed 446 assists in his 341 appearances. 1.3 Assists per game!
  ‍
• Kylian Mbappé, the Goal Machine: With 789 goals, Mbappé proved to be an offensive juggernaut, translating his real-life speed and finishing ability into the game.
  ‍
• Kevin De Bruyne's Midfield Mastery (and Yellow Cards): Known for his vision and passing, De Bruyne's virtual counterpart was a tad aggressive, collecting 39 yellow cards. The most of any player. Chill, Kev!

Unexpected Heroes

The real surprise came from players who weren't the usual suspects. Axel Camblan, Domingos Quina, and Eun-Sun Park were selected in more starting XIs than Messi, Mbappé, and De Bruyne. Ok ok, they might have been in the Alpha starter pack, but still!

Matchday Mobile Alpha was not just a test but a celebration of football, strategy, and community. From record-breaking wins to the emergence of unexpected heroes, it showcased the diverse ways to achieve glory on the virtual pitch. As we move forward, we're excited to see how players and football legends alike will shape the future of Matchday Mobile. Stay tuned for more updates, and get ready to build your own legacy in the world of football gaming.
