Control shadows:
1.      Pause in the middle of a game.
2.      Select the instant replay option.
3.      While holding down button R1, move arrow buttons.  Up/down control
the length of players' shadows, left/right rotate the angle.  This will
simulate various lighting conditions.

Throw-in to a specific player:
1.      Move the "camera" square to a player on the field.
2.      Press X and that player is active.  Move him to a position for
receiving the throw-in.  DO NOT PRESS X AGAIN.
3.      Now press the square button and the ball will be thrown to the player.

Muddy Dolby sound:
1.      Obviously, change Dolby to On from the options menu.
2.      Most dialog uses the center channel.  If you have a system without
a center channel dedicated speaker, use your Dolby decoder's "phantom" or
"matrix" mode to send center channel output to the left and right speakers.
3.      The sound also is pretty damn good with Dolby off, fed through a
stereo TV or audio system.

Vary strength of passes:
1.      Although the manual doesn't mention this, you need to hold down the
X button, while selecting a direction, then release the X button to pass.
The longer you hold down X, the stronger the pass will be.
2.      The same holds true for lob passes (square button).
3.      If your lob passes just bloop into the air, as mine did, then this
is the problem.

Saving penalty shots:
When you are the goalie trying to stop a penalty shot, the following 
combinations have the results shown.  Any of the action buttons (circle, X,
square, triangle) make the goalie attempt a save.  NOTE: You must not hit the
action button
until the shooter strikes the ball - just like real soccer; if you do, 
your goalie will just stand there.  However, you can be pressing the direction
buttons while you wait for the shooter, then hit the action button.  Hitting
the action button repeatedly will also move the goalie at some point.

Direction buttons       Action button   Result
-----------------       -------------   ------
left                    any             dive left
right                   any             dive right
up                      any             jump up
down                    any             dive toward shooter
left/down               any             dive left and out
right/down              any             dive right and out
up/left                 any             dive left
up/right                any             dive right

Shooting penalty shots:
While results seem to vary with player abilities, I believe the following
to be true.
1.      Striking the ball by hitting the X button is a low shot.
2.      Square and circle seem to have similar results.
3.      Direction buttons work predictably.


Apologies for any inaccuracies.
