FIFA 22 Free Kick glitch lets players score goals every time
A FIFA 22 Free Kick glitch is letting players exploit the set piece position to score a crazy amount of goals in FUT.
A newly discovered simple Free Kick glitch has FIFA 22 players scoring plenty of goals from set pieces in Ultimate Team.
It’s not often exploitable tricks and glitches come to light in FIFA 22 and players certainly seem divided about the potential consequences. Of course, FIFA has seen its fair share of animation glitches that have led to outrage but gameplay glitches are a rare occurrence.
This new Free Kick glitch is letting players score goals automatically, turning the set piece into a game-breaking advantage.
A post by Liver-King in the Ultimate Team subreddit showcases just how efficient this new trick can be for players of the Ultimate Team game mode. Of course, the Free Kick glitch should also work in FIFA’s other game modes.
In the clip posted, it’s clear to see how easy it is to exploit this Free Kick glitch when one is earned. Liver-King uses the trick to score a whopping seven Free Kick goals to prove the theory. Each Free Kick goal looks identical to the next as the player shows off the trick.
As you can see in the clip, when executing this technique it seems keepers simply can’t handle the ball despite how close it is to where they’re standing. Liver-King describes how to exploit the Free Kick trick in the comments but approach with caution. EA has banned players in the past for taking advantage of glitches.
The Free Kick has always been a difficult skill to master and Ultimate Team players are worried that this will provide an unfair advantage to anyone who earns a Free Kick around the goal. Keep an eye out for this trick in the upcoming FUT Champions this weekend.

What are FUT Hero cards in FIFA 23
FUT Hero cards were a new introduction in FIFA 22 and the concept is meant to highlight incredible players of the past who never quite reached icon status.
EA picked a set of players that shared a common characteristic of leadership and respect for the clubs they played for.
These Hero items are special cards in FUT as they utilize unique chemistry attributes. They offer league-specific chemistry and provide a green club link to any player within the same league.

FIFA 23 Ultimate Team promo calendar: Next FUT promotion & special cards
Our FIFA 23 promo calendar lets you know what the next FUT event is expected to be, and when each special card could arrive.
The FIFA 23 Ultimate Team season is set to get underway very soon, which means another year of FUT promos for players to enjoy. We’ve put together a complete FIFA 23 promo calendar of all the expected events, and when they should arrive.
FIFA 23 is almost here, and football fans can’t wait to dive into another year of crafting their Ultimate Team with the new Chemistry system.
Although the players will spend the first few weeks looking at the game’s top-rated players, pretty soon special cards will come into play to help take those FUT squads to the next level. Luckily, FIFA 23 Ultimate Team is set to be jam-packed with promos.
With this in mind, we’ve put together every FIFA 23 promo we’re expecting to see, when they could arrive, and which is up next.
What is the next FIFA 23 promo?
Each new FUT season usually starts with Ones to Watch, and we expect FIFA 23 to follow suit to kick off the year in style. This promo highlights the biggest moves of the summer transfer window and gives them a live card that increases to match their best Team of the Week.
FIFA 22 had one of the biggest Ones to Watch promos to date after the likes of Ronaldo and Messi switched teams, and there’s been plenty of massive transfers that should ensure that FIFA 23 OTW is just as popular.
FIFA 23 Ultimate Team promo calendar
EA like to keep fairly quiet about the promo schedule, usually not announcing the next FUT event until just days before it begins.
However, there are plenty of promos that feature every year in some form or another, and they tend to arrive at similar points in the year, so we can come up with a FIFA 23 promo calendar based on what has come before.
We’ve also removed any of the FIFA 22 promos that we don’t expect to make a comeback, such as Adidas NumbersUp or Signature Signings.
Here’s every FIFA 23 Ultimate Team promo that could arrive this season, along with a rough date of when it could begin.
Promotion / card name | FIFA 22 start date | Expected FIFA 23 start date | Confirmed |
Team of the Week | Weekly | Weekly | Yes |
Ones to Watch | October 1, 2021 | September 30, 2022 | No |
Road to the Knockouts | October 15, 2021 | October 14, 2022 | No |

It’s worth keeping in mind that EA likes to keep things fresh every year by moving the promos around, adding new ones, and removing ones that didn’t quite land. So, we’ll be sure to keep our FIFA 23 promo calendar up to date with the latest details as they are announced.

FIFA 22 player reveals Ultimate Team trick to instantly make 300k coins
A simple yet often forgotten FIFA 22 trick can gift Ultimate Team players with up to 300k coins before FIFA 23 comes around.
FIFA 22’s endgame is underway, but players are still discovering clever ways to generate coins, and this Ultimate Team trick has the possibility to grant a few hundred thousand.
Despite the fact that FIFA 23 is right around the corner, FIFA 22 players are still enjoying everything the Ultimate Team mode has to offer well into August. While the stakes and excitement can’t match that of FUT’s early game, the end game is still a great way to flex your FIFA skills.
The end of FIFA 22’s Ultimate Team cycle is when the market tends to crash, allowing you to purchase incredible players for bargain prices. If you’re looking to do so but you’re short on coins, a FUT player has revealed a clever trick to instantly gain almost 300k coins in one sitting.
With FIFA 23 set to release on September 30, FIFA 22’s Ultimate Team market is not the pillar it once was at the start of the game. Instead, some of the best cards in the game including Shapeshifters, TOTY, and FUTTIES items are available for cheap.
However, you’ll need coins to live out FIFA 22’s remaining days with the best possible squad and most players have burned through their savings.
Luckily, a helpful tip from a clever Ultimate Team expert could allow you to build your dream squad this late in the game. The trick involves discarding all your FIFA 22 Ultimate Team stadium items.
Stadium items like anthems, flags, and goal songs are used to decorate your FUT stadium. As the player who posted the tip to the FIFA subreddit explained, they “made about 300k” doing so.
The idea is that most players have amassed a ton of stadium items since the start of FIFA 22 that simply remain in their clubs unchecked. They don’t necessarily impact gameplay, so most players will forget about them.
If you’re one of these players, it’s likely that you’re sitting on a goldmine. Of course, if you immediately discard your stadium items as they come in, then this trick will not work for you.
The comments are full of players praising the forgotten trick: “Didn’t realise how much s**** I had. Couldn’t believe it when I seen it was 485 per discard.” Meanwhile, others opted for well-timed Barcelona jokes given their curious financial situation: “Bro went Barcelona’s financial team mode,” and “So this is what pulling a lever feels like.”
Unfortunately, there’s no FUT feature to quick sell all items, therefore you’ll have to manually quick sell them one by one. However, a player in the comments offered yet another helpful tip that should save you some time: “Web app isn’t the worst thing in the world however, took 20 minutes at most.”
Your stadium stockpile will determine how many coins you’ll receive. The OP accrued almost 300k, while some in the comments reached 150k and 200k. Any result that nets you over 100k coins is certainly worth it, as it’ll be considered a fortune in the current market.
