FIFA 14 why you no let me play?

So last night seemed like a good night to continue my quest for the Portuguese cup in Fifa 14.  I was already in the quarter-finals and wanted to - go - all - the - way!!!!!  I won the quarter finals game and then there were several other matches not even related to the cup.  I'm not familiar with the normal calendar of games for this cup but that one REALLY confused me.  

So I play through several matches and my game was a little off last night.  I wasn't doing a lot of good, but we were still winning.  So I get to the semi-finals match and the coach doesn't play me!!!!!   I sat there swearing like a drunken sailor.  I couldn't believe that all the good I had done in the earlier games of the cup got me NOTHING in the semi-finals match.  Needless to say at least if I am having a bad game, I can usually still win with my teammates.  The funny thing is, when the coach does decide to sit me out of a game, the team usually loses horribly which is exactly what happened in a 5 - nil game in the semi-finals.  I was needless to say quite pissed and after saving everything it was the end of Fifa for the night.

Tonight I am going to pick up the season pass for Assassin's Creed IV and going to get back into being that drunken sailor with some Christmas Ale.  Although, I'm pretty sure they probably didn't have flavored beers like that back then.  Oh well, it's just a game!!!
