Konami of Europe's UK division has released an online quiz game to continue its promotion of the Pro Evolution Soccer 5. Entitled Going for Goal, the web-based game tests the user's knowledge of football trivia as they attempt to score goals against a strict time limit.

The play area is split into two coloured formations, each representing those taking part. As a clock ticks away, the player is asked a series of multiple-choice questions. On correctly answering one, the ball is passed forward towards the opposition goal, while getting it wrong sees the CPU or second player gain possession. If the user strings together a succession of correct answers, a goal is scored and the player is rewarded with gameplay footage from Pro Evolution Soccer 5.

Similarly, successful players will be entered into a monthly draw and will receive a subscription to FourFourTwo magazine and a Konami game of their choice.
