One of the reasons that slot games are some of the most popular games played online right now is because there are so many themes! From werewolves and demons to fluffy teddies and leprechauns! There is something for everyone – including sports fans.

Some of the hottest slot games are football-themed ones. Football online casino games on Virgin Games are some of the most popular around, and here are some of the ones you should be trying out!

Football Fever

Football Fever has some of the coolest cartoon-style graphics! It is bright and exciting to play, and there are three rounds of possible rewards, including the super 10 free spins! If you manage to get three matching symbols, you’ll snag this one.

They keep it simple with the names; you’ll find SuperBet 1,2, and 3! Getting three bonus symbols on the same row on any reel will unlock the penalty series – which gives you three different ways to win. Look out for the 5x multiplier, and if you manage to win against the opposing team, you can get a massive 40 free game rounds.

Football Mania

Football Mania was released in 2014 and has become one of the most played football slots! With a huge nine reels, it is different from most of the others on the list. You’ll find all of the symbols that you associate with football – but you should look out for the block symbols option. Using this option, you can play the bonus football lottery feature.

You will get three tickets, and if you win, you’ll scoop the jackpot! Football Mania has some neat graphics and sits somewhere between realistic and super cartoon.

Football Star Deluxe

A feature-rich football slot game that has plenty to offer. The graphics are so colorful and rich; it is more eye-catching than many other slots. Unlike the previous football slot option, this one is played on five reels – so it has more of a standard slot feel. Football Star Deluxe is the follow-up to the Football Star game that was released a few years before.

The RTP for this one is 96.88% making it on the high side, so you are more likely to get a return on your cash pretty quickly. With the continuous win possibility and the 8x multiplier, there is plenty of cash to be made on this one.

Rolling reels will give you the continuous wins that you want! You can find the rolling reel features on some of the other Microgaming slots.

SHOOT!

A classic five reel 3-row slot that offers 50 paylines – another one from Microgaming and what makes this one so much fun is that you will see typical symbols like football boots and magazine, but then be dazzled with Pele and Maradona!

The bonus round for this one is what keeps people coming back to play – you can win up to 35 spins. The graphics are fun and bright, and the whole experience is a simple slot with a great football theme.

Football Champions Cup

An exciting football-themed slot that has five reels and 20 payflines – and some cool wilds too. You’ll also find a couple of multipliers and a penalty shootout!

There are between 2 and 5 overlay wilds that come into action in the base game, the 1st will land on reels 1 and 3, and then randomly, the second appears between reels 1 and 4.

The moment you see three or more scatters on the reels, the free spins tournament gets triggered. The tournament feels and plays like the knockout stages in a football tournament. Each free spin is a whole game of football, and if you win the match, you go on to play the next one. Each time you win a match, you will retrigger the free spins.

FIFA World Cup

If you want to be blown away and impressed by things like loading screens, then this slot is the one for you. It is an indicator that they have thought about all of the little details! Choose your player from some of the biggest names in football history – and relax into the samba music in the background. You’ll hear some of the most popular football chants too!

The graphics are reminiscent of the FIFA computer games, and all of the players are easily recognizable! An RTP of 96% is pretty high, and the most you can win on this game is 10,000x your wager.

The pay line is a fixed 25, and each of the teams has a different paytable; for example, Argentina is 150x while Germany is 1,000x. There is a bonus game too! All you need to do is get three golden boots anywhere on the pitch, and you’ll be shooting for a goal.

Football-themed slot games are a lot of fun and a nice change from playing on the console!
