EA Sports FC bug has completely broken the game

It’s hard to decide if this new bug inEA Sports FC 24is hilarious or tragic. Usually, games have the odd bug pop up and they’re inconsequential, but this new bug in EA’s latest football game is game-breaking.

If the player performs a skill move that ball becomes attached to their leg, allowing them to simply run into the opponent’s goal to score. Apparently, there is nothing the opposing player can do to prevent this, and it’s wreaking havoc in competitive matches.
