Possession — The 1v1 football quiz duel

Possession is a real-time football quiz you play head-to-head against another person. Instead of racing a clock alone, you win the ball by answering faster and more accurately than your opponent, and keeping possession is how you create chances and score goals before full time. It turns a trivia quiz into an actual match.

Create a room and invite a friend, or get matched with a rival looking for a game. Every question is a battle for the ball: answer well and you keep pressing forward, slip up and your opponent takes over. It is quick, competitive, and built for the kind of football arguments that are more fun when there is a scoreline attached.

How to play Possession

1. Create a room and share the code, or get matched with an opponent.
2. Answer each football question faster and more accurately than your rival to win the ball.
3. Hold possession to build attacks and turn them into goals.
4. Outscore your opponent before full time to win the duel.

Tips to score higher

Speed wins the ball: Possession rewards quick, confident answers. When you know it, lock it in — hesitating hands the initiative to your opponent even when your answer would have been correct.

Don’t force the risky ones: A wrong answer can cost you the ball at a bad moment. If a question is a coin flip, a considered answer is often better than a rushed guess that gifts your rival an attack.

Warm up with a friend: Playing rooms against people you know is the fastest way to learn the rhythm of winning and losing possession before you take on matched opponents.
