The Best Running Celebrations In EA FC 26
The second you nail a goal, there’s your run-up celebration. That’s your window to flex, and FC 26 totally gets it. I mean, you can perform these flashy moves as you’re sprinting across the field, right before the finishing moves. It’s all about setting a vibe, leading to the ultimate finish.
1. Aeroplane (Just Hold The Right Stick)
Just as the name suggests, a classic aeroplane. Just stretch your arms out, and jet around the field. Who doesn’t love a little sky soaring after scoring a solid goal? Always fun to watch those defenders trailing behind you, looking wrecked as you celebrate.
2. Blow Kisses (Flick Right Stick Down, Then Hold Right Stick Up)
Just blow out some kisses and keep things wholesome. It’s there to keep things humble and chill.
3. Windmill (Rotate Right Stick In Circular Motion)
This one’s all about putting on a show for all. Your player spins their arm without a care in the world, and with a bit of attitude. Sure, it could be a little extra at times, but that’s the fun of it.
The Top Finishing Celebrations
Here’s where the real magic happens: The finishing move. EA FC 26 takes these final celebrations to the next level. Think epic movie vibes, only the player you’re controlling is the star.
4. Gamer (Hold RB + Flick Right Stick Right, then Left)
This one’s for my fellow gamers who live and breathe both football and gaming. Your player basically pulls out an invisible controller and starts mashing the buttons right there on the pitch. It shows that, to you, it’s just a game and you’re the best at it.
It also serves as a tribute to the late, great Diogo Jota, who utilized this celebration.
5. The Flex (Hold LB + Press X)
Just bulldozed their whole defense? Time to flex. Flash that grin, soak in the crowd, and let the highlight speak louder than words.
6. The Spanish Dance (Hold LT + Tap Right Stick Up Twice)
Scored and feeling yourself? The Spanish Dance brings the flair — smooth moves, easy vibes, and just enough swagger to let everyone know you’re here to enjoy the moment.
7. Uncontrolled Backflip (Hold RT + Spin Right Stick Clockwise)
Doing backflips after a goal is diabolical. I mean, your player literally turns into a gymnast, borrowed from the Olympics. It doesn’t appeal to everyone, but man, it’s the best kind of flex when pulled off smoothly.
8. The Hypnosis (Hold LT + Press Y)
I won’t lie, this one’s a total crowd-pleaser. Gather your teammates, throw your arms around, and suddenly everyone’s pretending to hypnotize the fans. Super silly? Sure. A bit awkward? Definitely, but that’s exactly what makes it an instant classic.

Score, sprint to your team’s mascot, and let the fun begin. A quick flick of the stick and you’re celebrating together—simple, wholesome, and one of the most interactive celebrations in the game.
10. Bandmaster (Hold LT + Flick Right Stick Right Up)
This one’s pure comedy gold. Your player takes center stage, conducting an imaginary band with all the swagger of a halftime show. Goofy? Absolutely. Entertaining? No question.
