Eleven players, eleven spots: in The Eleven you are looking for a complete assignment. Each player is used once. There is no single official solution – every valid eleven wins.
How a round works
Choose an unlocked level. The pitch is shown as a 4-3-3, with the bench beneath it. Tap a player first, then a spot. If the player does not fit the condition, the spot stays empty. You can rearrange, undo or send a player back to the bench at any time. Completing 50 line-ups finishes the campaign.
What the spots mean
The formation is visual only. Actual playing positions are not a requirement. A club spot needs at least one competitive first-team appearance, past or present. A league spot needs actual league appearances. A nation spot means the senior national team. For the Champions League, an appearance for the eventual winner in the winning season counts. World Cup, EURO and Copa América count membership of the winning squad. Facts are as of 19 July 2026.
EXAMPLE · LEVEL 1
Where do you start on “Anstoß”?
The first level includes Thibaut Courtois and Mohamed Salah on the bench. One of the eleven conditions is Belgium, another is Liverpool. Start with spots that only one player can fill. That turns eleven open cards into a short list of forced moves.
Show the reasoning
Courtois on Belgium, Salah on Liverpool. Courtois is the only Belgian in this eleven, and Salah is the only Liverpool player. Those two spots are therefore fixed, regardless of how you arrange the remaining nine cards later. Several complete assignments remain possible. FIFA lists Courtois in Belgium’s 2022 World Cup squad. Liverpool lists Salah as a club player. View the FIFA 2022 squad list.
Avoiding common mix-ups
A club spot is not a current squad list: loans and former clubs count, youth and reserve teams do not. A league spot is narrower than “once played in that country”. A honour spot is not a final appearance. If two players fit the same condition, look next at who covers the rarer mix of nation, league and club.
If you notice a discrepancy, tell support the mode, level and the condition in question. A specific squad or appearance source helps us verify the entry.
