How to Perform the EA FC 25 Defending Block Glitch

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of experience under my belt, I must say, the EA Sports FC 25 block glitch is both intriguing and frustrating. On one hand, it’s a testament to the game’s complexity that such a bug exists. On the other, it undermines the spirit of fair play that forms the backbone of any sport, virtual or otherwise.


As an avid fan, I’ve stumbled upon a clever trick in EA Sports FC 25 that some players might find intriguing. It seems there’s a bug that lets players skip the set piece distance threshold and even block their opponents’ shots without any hassle. If you’re curious about how to leverage this EA Sports FC 25 glitch, here are the details!

Using or abusing this glitch during player-versus-player (PvP) games is strongly advised against, since it violates the spirit of fair play in football. It’s not sportsmanlike to take such an underhanded approach when competing with others.

During a soccer game, it’s essential for opposing players to keep a certain distance from where a set piece, such as corner kicks, free kicks, goal kicks, and penalties, is being taken. This safe zone is typically marked by a circular area with a radius of either 10 yards (about 9.15 meters). In the game EA Sports FC 25, this rule is enforced by an invisible barrier, so no player can move closer than 10 yards from their opponent while they are taking a set piece.

How to Perform the EA FC 25 Block Glitch

In EA Sports FC 25, there’s a hidden trick that lets players move past an unseen obstacle. To pull this off, players should initially run towards the opponent who is taking the free kick. Just as they are on the verge of reaching the obstacle, they need to quickly press the R1 button (RB on Xbox) on their controller. Doing so will enable them to bypass the obstacle entirely and get as close as desired to the opponent. It’s essential to remember that the trick only works if players press the key before crossing the unseen obstacle, otherwise it won’t work. Players should also refrain from using this technique in Player vs Player mode, particularly competitive modes like Ultimate Team in EA Sports FC 25.

The Player’s Direction

Another thing to note is that once players start exploiting this glitch, they will not be able to change the direction of their player. That is, the player will keep running in the same direction as they were before entering the barrier. Therefore, one should position the player in the right direction toward the opponent before crossing the barrier. The best way to use this glitch is to go directly in front of the opponent who is taking the set piece, as it will simply block their shots altogether. In fact, this also works for goal kicks, so one can use it as an offensive tactic in EA Sports FC 25 as well. That being said, considering this is pretty much a game-breaking bug, it is quite likely that the developers will fix it pretty soon.
