Questions people ask
How do you play football tic tac toe?
The grid has three clubs or countries down the side and three across the top. To claim a square, name a player who fits both, for example a Frenchman who played for Arsenal. Get three in a row to win.
Can I play against a friend?
Yes. Choose "Two players" and pass the phone: X goes first, then O. A wrong answer loses your turn. You can also play the computer, or try the daily grid on your own.
What is the daily grid?
One grid for everyone each day. You get nine guesses to fill as many of the nine squares as you can, and every player can be used once.
Is this the same as Tiki Taka Toe?
It is the same idea, often searched as tiki taka toe or footy tic tac toe. Ours is a free version with its own grids, called Footy Noughts & Crosses.
Who counts for a club or a country?
Any player who played for that club in a league match (loans count), as listed on his Wikipedia page. A country means he played for that country's senior national team.
