You played low on the road, he played normal at home. That and some luck will get him the win.

Is the advantage so big??

Which advantage?

Normal Vs Low... slightly, yes.
Home Vs Away... slightly, yes.

Normal @ home Vs low @ away... definitely yes!

There are many factors that go into a game. The better team obviously has that advantage. A weaker team can make up part of that advantage by playing a higher importance, playing at home, and having the better game plan. If he hits all three and gets some luck with the calculations that equals him barely beating you by a goal.

The best team on paper won't always win.

completely wrong tactics...

seran: same thing for you, wrong tactics, and home advantage ...

I didn't even win last night's match even though I was at home, had double amount of shots compared to him, and had good tactics

go figure, pfff

And you won't win every game, this is not a mathematical 6>4 equation, there are lots of variables. Expecting to win every game, even if you think you have a clear advantage is unrealistic.

looks like we wont be able to put up news today. The launch has been postponed a bit. I will issue the official news when I know all the details.

So...can anyone tell me why i loose 1-5 at home!? I win the shots, have home advantage with better stats and we played the same tactics..

Now theres a mindbomb for you lol. Any suggestions why i loose??

PS. It was our last game against Ilves.

That's how things go in life sometimes. I've been outshot badly, they got the counter-tactic and won on the road. I've also done everything right to win at home and lost. Just the way it goes sometimes.

Yeah, i know. I dont mind losing games, just wanted to know if theres something i dont see in the game exept that hes goalie gets 1 star better than mine. Plus 1-5 is a bit rough dont ya think?

This question is asked over and over and over again.

Better stats? Your team is pretty even with the opponent. He has a far better goalie from what I can see, which accounts for your shots coming up short. He also has a higher OTR, although that means very little in this situation.

It's impossible to predict why you win or lose because there are factors that the game summary does not tell.

Line chemistry
Line experience
energy
attribute balance
players on their preferred side

For all you know, your opponent could have perfect chemistry, experience, energy, great players and great line tactic setup.

I hope others read, and take note of this also...

It is IMPOSSIBLE to fully 100% predict why a team wins or loses. All you can do is take pot-shot guesses and try and figure it out.

Aah i didnt even think of chemistry, line experience etc.
I know for a fact this guy plays with a great bunch of player he got at the start so the chemisty and experience is probably way better than mine is.

the energy, atty balance and prefered side is under control as far as im conserned tho...( i go by 2-1-1 attys btw.).

I went ahead and made a thread for the OP regarding the loss of the match. Hopefully it a place all other managers can go when they lose a match and want to know why. Hopefully it can help reduce the spam in this thread for things which can actually be answered:
