The key difference between a win and a loss in FC 26 can often come down to your gameplay settings and how much you have mastered the controls of this year.
With new features in store, it's always crucial to be aware of the best settings inside the game. Gameplay settings refer to how your controller/keyboard usually works, and how much the AI will assist you in different situations. Then comes the aspect of knowing the controls and combining them to outclass your opponents.
