# Top Teams matches

Top Teams matches

Top Team matches are a real treat in goalunited!

In the United -> Top Teams menu, you get the opportunity to challenge special teams, such as Sportfreunde Hamburg, Les Galactiques de Paris, Tactics United, Mentality Monsters and others. 

## Top Teams availability

Some Top Teams are available only for a short period of time, and during this time, you can play as many times as you want. The first win against some Top Teams earns you a unique trophy, which, after that, shows the number of wins against this team.

Some other Top Teams can be challenged at any time (such as Mentality Monsters, Tactics United and Morale Masters)

## Playing against Top Teams

Most of the available Top Teams can be challenged using GU Stars, however, there are Top Teams, such as Tactics United, Mentality Monsters and Morale Masters, that can be challenged for free 5 times per day and per club. You can play more than 5 matches by using GU Stars. 

> **Warning:** 1_on1 united coupons cannot be used to challenge the Top Teams_
