It turns out that playing FIFA 16 on your PlayStation isn't actually all that different from playing professional football.
At least that's what Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge says, who has compared his team's Europa League quarter final against Borussia Dortmund tonight to a tense game of FIFA against your best friend.
Speaking to the club's website, Sturridge said:
"It’s like when you’re playing a final on Fifa and you’re playing against your mate. You’ve all put £20 in the middle and there’s £100.
Liverpool's defenders will be hoping it's not exactly like a game of FIFA.
If Sturridge's comparison is accurate, Liverpool's defenders are in for a tough night – Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang is amongst the fastest and most deadly players in EA SPORTS' simulated universe.
