In order to celebrate the Chinese New Year, the team at EA Sports is announcing that it is running a new special tournament for FIFA 15, which challenges all interested gamers to create a competitive team using players from clubs that are traditionally linked to the goat and the ram.

Those interested in taking part need to create a starting eleven with 2 players from each of the following teams: Derby County, FC Koln, FC Dordrecht and Guadalajara, which are not known for the high-quality of their lineup.

Once gamers have put together a team they like, they can take it online to play against other FIFA 15 gamers, which will bring them 2,000 coins and one rare and un-tradable 25K Gold Pack.

Those taking part can also stay offline and will get 1,000 coins and a 15K pack as long as they use their special team.

It will be interesting to see how many gamers will take part in the FIFA 15 Lunar New Year Tournament and what teams they are able to create given the limitations of the competition.

Earlier today, the developers at EA Sports have also delivered the traditional Team of the Week for the Ultimate Team mode, which allows gamers to get access to Lionel Messi, Mario Gotze, Muller and more.
