The actual ninety minutes of gameplay, yes. Most Football PBMs involve so
much moe thasn just the on-the-pitch stuff though. Just one program out
from the (about) two dozen that make up Kickabout actually calculates
match results.

Statistics, usually - often lots of them and in some games, too many of
them.

Many ways; from formations through styles of play, from marking tactics to
positional selection of players.

> What about injury calculations.

Usually a direct relationship to player's fitness, strenght and the
overall level of commitment, skill and aggression putinto teh game by the
opposition.
