Reception
PALGN gave a score of 5.5 out of 10 and concluded that "[...] the game simply up can't match other titles available on the market." PSX Extreme gave a score of 6+ out of 10 and complimented the quantity of available teams but said the game feels like a copy of Pro Evolution Soccer and the gameplay is too buggy. PlayStation Official Magazine – UK called the game a "dated, derivative effort". In a retrospective, Retro Hobby called it an "excellent football simulator".
