Furthermore, the database was a . It captured the twilight of an era defined by unique, non-standardized talents. Consider the “Iconic” players: Zlatan Ibrahimović’s 98 “Shot Power” and 95 “Technique” made him capable of impossible volleys; Andrea Pirlo’s 99 “Long Pass” and 96 “Short Pass” turned the midfield circle into a GPS-guided artillery station; Samuel Eto’o’s 97 “Explosive Power” and 84 “Finishing” made him a lethal, sharp-angle predator.
