How to unlock the Great Coaching achievement in Midway Arcade Origins - Definitive Guide
Good Luck Hope this helps
You can earn this Achievement in Cyberball Rookie League or Regulation Cyberball (or split between both...); the former is much easier. If you're good enough at defense, keeping your opponent from scoring during one of their possessions should be sufficient, but failing that, getting the LAST touchdown of the game and the FIRST touchdown of the next game (just press the Pass button to start another match rather than exiting) will earn the Achievement as well. Cyberball Rookie League ALWAYS starts you on offense, making doing this in two games much more reliable if you can't seem to do it in one.
[A side note: for those who care about leaderboards, only Regulation Cyberball counts, and is scored by margin of victory/loss. As of the submission of this solution, only FIVE scores have been entered on the leaderboard...]
This trophy gave me more trouble than I think it should have. Tournament Cyberball 2072 is a footballish game played with robots and a bomb. Unlike American football, there aren't first downs. You have to get the ball past a certain yardage line before it blows to "de-fuse" it. When the ball is "Critical" you have to get past the yardage given or it blows up and the opposing team gets the ball…err, bomb.
You get the ball first. Easiest way, I found, is just to go for passing plays. Remember, you only have to score 12 points in a row, so the conversion points don't matter. When passing, wait for a robot to be on one of the squares for catching and move your joystick over to the highlighted place you want to throw to. If you get close enough to the goal line, QB sneaks and running plays may be easier.
On defense, Safety Blitzes and other Blitzes work best to stop them. Choose your controllable player and be aggressive. If you succeed in stopping them you will get the bomb back. Now, rinse and repeat what you just did on offense, and you should get this out of the way after a few attempts.
To clarify you don't have to do this in the same game but you DO have to make 2 consecutive touchdowns.
