Lazio In Winning Eleven 9 / Pro Evolution Soccer 5


Pro Evolution Soccer 5 (Winning Eleven 9 in Japan and World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 in the US) was released in October 2005 and featured John Terry and Thierry Henry on the cover. The improvements are mainly tweaks to the gameplay engine, while online play finally made it to the PlayStation 2 version. The game was perceived as much harder by fans, with a very punishing defense AI making it harder to score. Some players have pointed out inconsistencies in the star difficulty rating, such as 3 star mode being harder to beat than 6 star due to its more defensive nature, but in general scoring is harder. Referees are very fussy over decisions, awarding free kicks for very negligible challenges.

There are various new club licenses present, including Arsenal, Chelsea, Celtic, Rangers and a few other European clubs, as well as the full Dutch, Spanish and Italian Leagues. Pro Evolution Soccer 5 was victim of the infamous empty stadium glitch, in which when playing a game, no crowds are present in the stands although they are present during cut-scenes. There are fan-made mods which address this in the PC version, although no official patch was released. Official PlayStation 2 Magazine UK gave it a perfect 10/10 score.
Pro Evolution Soccer 5 / Winning Eleven 9 was released for Xbox, Windows and PS2, all online enabled. A PSP version was released, but with stripped down features, such as no Master League, no commentary, only one stadium and limitations in the editor, due to the limitations to the UMD. The PSP version featured Wi-fi play, and the gameplay was faster and more “pin-ball like” in comparison to its console siblings, but it did not receive the same acclaim as the mainstream console/PC versions.
This is the default composition of starting lineup of Lazio in Winning Eleven 9:
• GK. Angelo Peruzzi
• CB. Sebastiano Siviglia
• CB. Lequi
• RB. Massimo Oddo
• LB. Luciano Zauri
• DMF. Ousmane Dabo
• DMF. Fabio Liverani
• RMF. Emmanuele Filipini
• LMF. Aparecido Cesar
• CF. Tomasso Rocchi
• CF. Paolo Di Canio



Well, you can see that there are some classic players of Lazio in this game. Cesar, Di Canio, Siviglia, Oddo, Dabo, Liverani and Filipini brothers(Antonio and Emmanuele) are several former Lazio players who had left Biancoceleste for the others club. In this default formation, Emmanuele Filipini had set by Konami to take the Right midfielder position, but, in reality that position is owned by his brother, Antonio. Emmanuele often played on the center position of midfield.
