Machlas: /* Weather special events */ translate table from wiki.hattrick.tk (spanish wiki)

Apart from goals created by the [[team]], i.e. having better [[attack]] than the opponent's [[defence]], you can also have "special events" happen. These either affect an individual player's performance for the rest of the game or they create a goal or scoring opportunity. There are two groups of special events: weather special events and goal special events.

[[Play creatively]] can sometimes be a good option for teams who are SE optimized, and a full discussion of this can be found [[Play creatively|here]].

=Weather special events=

Certain specialties may be better suited to certain weather condition. If a "weather event" happens, a certain player is affected for the rest of the game, and his player rating will reflect his performance accordingly.

=Goal special events=

*'''[[Unpredictable|Unpredictable player]]s''' can use their [[passing]] skill to create unexpected long passes, and their [[scoring]] skill to intercept the ball. Their unpredictability may also create unlikely scoring opportunities. If an unpredictable [[defender]] or [[inner midfielder]] has sufficiently low [[defending]] skill, they can also make an error with a pass that will give the opponent a chance to score.
*'''[[Quick]] [[winger]]s and [[forward]]s''' can create chances by using a burst of speed. This can be countered by the opposing team using a defender who is also Quick, or has sufficient defending skill to keep up.
*'''[[Technical]] wingers and forwards''' can create chances if their opposing defender or inner midfielder is a [[head]] specialist.
*'''Wingers''' with sufficient [[wing]] skill can create chances that will have to be finished off by another winger or a forward. If that other player is a head specialist or has sufficient scoring skill, he will score.
*'''[[Long shot]]''': Any player with sufficient [[set pieces]] skill and sufficient scoring skill can score from a long shot.
*'''[[Corner]]''': To score from a corner kick, the player responsible for taking your set pieces will need to have sufficient set pieces skill and the player receiving the ball from the corner will have to have sufficient scoring skill. The higher the number of [[head]] specialists in your team, and the lower the number of head specialists among your opponent's, the better your chances to score. Having no head specialists at all will make you very weak at defending against corners and very weak at scoring from your own corners.
*'''[[Experience]]''': experienced wingers and forwards can score using their experience. Inexperienced defenders and inner midfielders can give their opponents an extra chance.
*'''Tiredness''': Tired defenders can make mistakes. Unless the opposing attacker is also too tired, this may create a chance for the opponent. Defenders with low [[stamina]] are more likely to become tired.
