The Best Football Games

As the world’s most popular sport, it is little wonder that the demand for football games is at an all-time high.

Titles such as the FIFA series and Football Manager have become synonymous with football, helping to bridge the gap between the virtual world and real life.

While both games offer excellent value for money, many fans like to get their football fix by playing free games online.

If you have a suitable device and a stable internet connection, there are dozens of free football games available on the internet. Here are some of our favourites.

New Star Soccer

New Star Soccer allows players to experience a personal journey from a teenager into the professional ranks of the sport.

Players must first pass their trial by learning simple passing routines and shooting exercises before progressing further in the game.

If you are successful, you are offered a contract by a lower league club and can begin your journey towards signing for a top European side.

New Star Manager

If football management simulation games are more to your liking, New Star Manager will be right up your street.

You will manage New Star FC – a troubled club that needs your management skills to unlock the team’s potential and make it to the top of the game.

From constructing the club’s facilities to building your dream squad and more, New Star Manager is a football game you will find difficult to put down.

Copa Libertadores FK

Choose from 15 top teams and try to win Copa Libertadores. Start in the round of 16 and take your favourite team to the championship!

It’s an arcade game featuring animals with truly ridiculous abilities and is undoubtedly one of the most amusing football titles on the internet.
