Player Upgrades Work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike traditional static cards, RTTF items upgrade in stages depending on how far a player\u2019s club advances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Core Upgrade Principle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Wins, draws, and progression = upgrades<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Knockout stages = milestone boosts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Final victory = maximum evolution<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">UEFA Knockout Upgrade System (Step-by-Step)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quarter-Finals Progression<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul

Rule: The 90-Minute System<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A key mechanic in RTTF is the <strong>90-minute rule<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How It Works<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Only regulation time counts (first 90 minutes)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Extra time and penalties do not affect upgrades<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Matches ending in a draw at 90 minutes count as a draw result<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why It Matters<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This rule ensures upgrades are based on standard match performance rather than extended play
