FIFA 22 March 7 Title Update 7 patch notes
The latest FIFA 22 update addressed audio issues, bug fixes, and skill move animations. Here’s everything you need to know about Update 7.
EA have delivered a brand-new FIFA 22 update that provides quality of life changes to enhance your gameplay experience. Let’s take a look at the FIFA 22 Update 7 patch notes.
The devs have already addressed some major issues plaguing FIFA 22 over the past few months which has added to the fluidity of the FIFA gaming experience. Update 7 will set its sights on minor issues that should once again improve the quality of gameplay.
This time, audio issues, skill move animations, and other bug fixes were addressed via Update 7. Here are all the details including the patch notes for the latest FIFA 22 update.
FIFA 22 audio fix
A strange bug that mixed the audio from EA Trax and EATV videos when watching in full screen would occur far too often for some. Luckily, EA has addressed this issue in Update 7 as the audio channels have now been separated.
While this isn’t the most detrimental issue to hit FIFA 22, audio problems are always quite annoying for players and it’s a great thing they no longer have to deal with this mix-up.
FIFA 22 new skill move animation
If used properly, skill moves are a fantastic tool at your disposal in FIFA 22. These unique moves will create space and leave defenders in the dust if timed to perfection.
Update 7 brings a “new Skill Move animation that occurs when performing a Heel Chop diagonally behind the face angle of the ball carrier.”
The Heel Chop skill move is one that can be performed by players with a minimum of 3* SM. You will now notice a different animation that will trigger based on the position of the ball carrier.

How to complete FIFA 22 Thomas Lemar TOTS SBC
Ultimate Team players can secure a dominant midfielder by completing the Thomas Lemar LaLiga TOTS SBC in FIFA 22.
French midfielder Thomas Lemar is available via SBC during the FIFA 22 TOTS promo. Here’s how to complete the FIFA 22 Lemar LaLiga TOTS SBC with the cheapest solution.
The TOTS promo is currently shining a light on LaLiga with players doing their best to secure the elite that Spain has to offer. EA have delivered a few SBCs as a part of the LaLiga TOTS promo including a Flashback Isco SBC and Iago Aspas TOTS SBC.
Now, players can get their hands on Atletico Madrid midfielder Thomas Lemar. While the French International usually plays out wide on the left-wing, this TOTS card makes for an interesting change by having him positioned as a CM.
Here’s what you need to know about the FIFA 22 Lemar TOTS SBC, including the cheapest solution.
FIFA 22 LaLiga TOTS Lemar SBC stats
While LaLiga has some incredible CMs to pick from, Lemar’s French nationality is a huge asset, and you’ll be able to get him into a variety of teams outside of LaLiga given the popularity of French players. Due to the position change, Lemar’s Physicality and Defending stats have received huge boosts.
You can utilize Lemar as a CAM, CM, and even CDM, with great success, and with his 94 Short Passing and 93 Long Passing, Lemar will prove to be an excellent distributor of the ball regardless of his positioning in your midfield. Lastly, his 95 Stamina will have you covering the entire pitch for 90 minutes.
How to complete FIFA 22 Lemar TOTS SBC
To complete this SBC, players will need to give up three squads: France, Top Form, and LaLiga. With a value of around 210,000 coins, Lemar is only slightly overpriced, but those who have extra fodder should consider completing this FIFA 22 SBC.

How to complete FIFA 22 Fabinho & Rodrygo Showdown SBC
Players can secure one or both of Fabinho and Rodrygo as part of the new FIFA 22 Ultimate Team Showdown SBC.
As the iconic Champions League Final between Liverpool and Real Madrid approaches, FIFA 22 players will have the opportunity to complete the Fabinho and Rodrygo Showdown SBC.
While Ultimate Team players are currently focusing on securing the best TOTS cards available, EA have released two more top cards with the Fabinho and Rodrygo Showdown SBC.

FIFA 22 Showdown Fabinho SBC stats
The base version of Showdown Fabinho is excellent, however, without the +2 upgrade, you may have a hard time justifying the steep price you’ll have to pay. Nonetheless, if you’re flush with coins and fodder, Fabinho is a great addition even at this stage of the game.
- Read more: FIFA 22 TOTS Token Swaps explained
Fabinho is one of the best CDMs in the game and if you run a Premier League squad, he’ll be a massive improvement from TOTS Rice, Fernandes, Silva, and Fred. His 94 Standing Tackle and 92 Interceptions will surely result in Fabinho winning many loose balls in the middle of the pitch.
FIFA 22 Showdown Rodrygo SBC stats
If you completed the Isco SBC, then Rodrygo is a no-brainer. The winger is slightly cheaper than Fabinho but still quite expensive. You’ll certainly be able to justify the price if Rodrygo moves to 94 overall.

5* skill moves and 4* weak foot is a great combination, while 97 Agility, Sprint Speed, and Acceleration make him incredibly quick. He also has the movement stats like 96 Balance and 95 Dribbling to go with that pace.
How to complete FIFA 22 Showdown Fabinho SBC
To complete this SBC players will need to give up four squads: Liverpool, Brazil, Premier League, and Top Form. Costing around 470,000 coins, Fabinho is considered a luxury option at CDM. You’ll have to gather a ton of fodder and coins to complete this FIFA 22 SBC.

Ultimate Team remains the most popular mode in the FIFA series. One of the many reasons for this is incorporating real-world football into its addictive gameplay loop through special cards, such as Icons or the upcoming TOTS.

We’ll be updating this hub with the latest FIFA 22 TOTW news, so be sure to check back here every week.

What are TOTW cards in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team?
Team of the Week items are special cards that boost stats based on that player’s performance in the previous week of real-world games. Any player awarded an in-form will see both their ratings and in-game stats get a permanent increase.
Every week, EA unveils a 23-man squad of the stars who had the best games in the previous domestic or international fixtures round. They could be awarded for a last-minute winner in a big game or a heroic performance from a goalkeeper to keep a clean sheet.

Each TOTW is available in packs for an entire week until it is replaced by the next squad on the following Wednesday. Players can’t receive an in-form two weeks in a row.
While an in-form card is in packs, it replaces the base version of that player. The normal card will return to packs when that TOTW is over.
FIFA 22 Ultimate Team Featured TOTW
In FIFA 22, EA has addressed fans’ complaints that TOTW items are often quickly rendered useless by the other promotional cards added to the game throughout the year.
Every week, one player will receive a special Featured TOTW card. These players will receive a larger boost than the rest of the squad in an attempt to make them more desirable to those building their teams.
To qualify for this additional stat boost, the player must have a base card that is under 80-rated and not have any other performance-based card in packs – such as a Ones to Watch.
When is the TOTW released?
Historically, EA announces the latest TOTW every Wednesday so that any Monday night games can be considered.
Each new team is normally Tweeted out around 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET / 6 PM GMT with a full look at every upgrade.
