Futbolle Missing 11 #98 board: Portugal's starting eleven against Morocco at the 2022 World Cup quarter-final, eight player cards and hidden gold shirts 11, 26 and 22

Missing 11, also called Missing XI, is a free daily football quiz on Futbolle. Each day shows the real starting lineup of one team from a match that was played, in its formation and with shirt numbers, with three names hidden. You have six guesses to name the missing players.

About Missing 11 (Futbolle)

Missing 11 is one of Futbolle's daily football games. Each puzzle is numbered and dated, and shows one team's starting eleven from one real match: the formation on a pitch, the shirt numbers, the match and score, and eight named players with photos. Three slots show a yellow shirt with a question mark.

You tap a hidden card and type a name, then pick it from the list of suggestions. Any correct name for any of the hidden cards counts, even if you tapped a different slot, so the game asks you to remember the players rather than place them. You have six guesses for the three names. The search ignores accents and capitals, and uses the name a player is commonly known by.

The rotation holds close to 100 lineups from big teams, taken from the official match reports on Wikipedia: great finals such as Istanbul 2005 and the 2014 World Cup final, and national teams' matches at the 2018 and 2022 World Cups and Euro 2020 and Euro 2024. A lineup does not come back for months. Your result is how many of the three you found and how many guesses it took, shared as a spoiler-free summary. There is no account, and your statistics stay on your device.

The game can be played in English, Turkish, Spanish, Portuguese, German and Italian, and is free with Google ads on the site. It suits football fans with a long memory for tournaments, and anyone who can picture a team sheet from a famous night.

How to play Missing 11 (Futbolle)

  1. Open Missing 11 and read the match, the score and the team shown.
  2. Study the formation, the shirt numbers and the eight named players.
  3. Tap a yellow hidden card, type the name of a player you think started and pick it from the suggestions.
  4. Use up to six guesses to find all three missing names; any right name counts for any hidden slot.
  5. See how many you found and share your spoiler-free result.

Tips

  • Identify the match first; once you know it, the three names often come together.
  • Read the shirt numbers: a hidden 9 is usually the centre-forward.
  • Read the eight visible names as a group; they often only overlap in one squad at one time.
