In the Facebook game CopaSocca, it's all about developing the player's own football talent - from kicking around on the playground to the pinnacle of the international Copa League. The player begins his own virtual football career on the social networking site Facebook. He can kick his way into the Copa Stadium through rigorous training and success in numerous matches.
MANAGE THE MOST VALUABLE FOOTBALL PLAYER IN THE WORLD - BE YOUR OWN MANAGER
Along the path towards glory, players can develop their football skills, earn money, invest in better kit, play a whole lot of football with and against their facebook friends and marvel at their successes in their own trophy room. With their team, and the players themselves as captain, they start right at the bottom and, in 7-day seasons, fight for promotion or relegation in the different divisions.
