SET IT OFF One swipe. One keeper. Watch the net. Flick the ball, bend it past the keeper, climb the ladder. Set It Off is built around the most satisfying swipe in mobile soccer โ€” short flick for a daisy-cutter, slow flick for a chip, curl with aftertouch to ghost the corner.

About

90 Minute Manager

Features
Read full description

The first bite-size football management game. A full season of transfers, tactics and big calls in about twelve minutes. Every challenge is a self-contained story. You walk into a club in trouble, or a title race, or a World Cup quarter-final, and the board sets your target the day you arrive. Six matches. Two transfer windows. A dressing room full of people with opinions. Around twelve minutes later you have either written a piece of the club's history or you are updating your CV. FREE FOR A LIMITED TIME: WORLD CUP - THREE LIONS England are in the quarter-finals of the 2026 World Cup. Harry Kane has six goals and the Golden Boot in his sights; Norway and Haaland stand between you and a semi-final against Argentina. Three ties. Sixty years of hurt. Bring it home. STORIES, NOT SAVES - Save Northbridge: 19th with six matches left, a furious crowd and one academy striker everyone keeps talking about. Free forever. - The Steel City Job: a sleeping giant, a legend chasing one last dance and a board with sticky fingers over the gate money. - Champions on a Shoestring: the smallest budget in the division against two wounded giants. Trust the model, sell your goals or dig in. - The Youth Project: a dressing room of teenagers, one grown-up left standing and a 4 million pound call from London. - After the King: the King wants one more game. The terraces want the fairytale. Your strikers want out of his shadow. - Administration Watch: a winding-up petition, circling vultures and a bucket collection on the terraces. Football is the easy part. - Ram City - Rock Bottom: docked points, an EFL inquiry and a striker eyeing the exit. Chapter one of a saga that follows one club all the way up. DAILY RANKED MODE One challenge a day, the same for every manager in the world. Same seed, same squad, same events. The only difference on the leaderboard is the decisions you made. Every ranked run is re-simulated on our servers, so the board only trusts a clean sheet: no pay-to-win, no dice loaded against you. MADE FOR A COFFEE BREAK Pick up, save a club, put it down. Morale, form, wages and reputation carry between decisions, and every choice leaves a mark. No twelve-hour save files. No spreadsheets. Just the parts of football management that make your heart rate climb.
