You could try installing it using PlayOn Linux, FIFA 08 is not a supported application but if you click install there is a option at bottom of window to install an unsupported application.

To install PlayOnLinux type the following in a terminal:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install wine

sudo wget http://deb.playonlinux.com/playonlinux_jaunty.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install playonlinux

Then launch PlayOnLInux from 'Games' in the gnome menu, and try to install.

If the install works you may have to fiddle arounf with the wine settings to get it working. More information on other peoples efforts can be found at:
