The Joao Palhinha FUTTIES card can be yours for free in EA FC 24 Ultimate Team, and it’s a nice defensive addition to have.
Palhinha’s FUTTIES item is part of the latest objective set, released along with a fresh set of Best of Re-Release Batch 2 players. To get the card, you’ll need to complete certain tasks. Let’s take a look at all the tasks, and if you should put in the effort to get the free item.
EA FC 24 Joao Palhinha FUTTIES objective tasks
There are four tasks as part of the Joao Palhinha FUTTIES objective set. The tasks can be completed in any order, although few of them will end quicker.
- Midfield Presence: Score 4 goals using a Midfielder in Squad Battles matches on Min. Semi-Pro difficulty (or Rivals/Champions).
- Split the Field: Assist 3 goals using Through Balls in Squad Battles matches on Min. Semi-Pro difficulty (or Rivals/Champions).
- Play 6: Play 6 matches in Squad Battles on Min. Semi-Pro difficulty (or Rivals/Champions).
- Victorious 5: Win 5 matches in Squad Battles on Min. Semi-Pro difficulty (or Rivals/Champions) while having Min. 3 players from Portugal in your starting 11.
The best way to complete the objective is in Squad Battles, especially if you’re not playing your best squad. In Squad Battles, you face off against AI-controlled opponents, and you can also select the difficulty of the contest. It’s the easiest way to complete the tasks without having to bother about the results.
After completing the set, you get a 95-rated CDM card with four playstyle+. With M/H work rate, this item can excel as a CDM. The presence of Press Proven+ and Long Ball+ definitely improve the quality of this card. The presence of Intercept+ will have made the card do well on the meta (it still has the base playstyle). All things considered, it’s a good card to add for free, and the grind is pretty reasonable.
