How to Rainbow Flick in Rematch

The Rainbow Flick in Rematch isn’t just a flashy move—it’s a game-changing mechanic that lets you effortlessly leave defenders flailing as you glide past.

Popular football players, such as Neymar Jr. and Ronaldinho, are known for their impeccable execution of Rainbow Flicks. The Rematch move, though, isn’t clearly stated in the controls, and it’s listed under a different name, “Lob Pushball.” But how do you use it in your matches?

How to do a Rainbow Flick in Rematch

To perform a Rainbow Flick in Rematch, press C on your keyboard while having the ball at your feet. If you’re playing with a controller, press R1 + X to perform the move. Once you hit it, you launch the ball over your head and retrieve it on the other side.

If you’re up against a defender trying to intercept you with a sliding tackle, consider using a Rainbow Flick to maintain possession and make a fool out of your opponents. If your opponent is playing defensively and there’s no space to dribble around, a Rainbow Flick can surprise them with a sudden overhead move to make space for you to shoot behind.

In most circumstances, it’s wiser to pass the ball to your teammate to increase your team’s chances of scoring a goal. But if you’re a crowd pleaser, don’t be afraid to pull out this move in a crampy situation to make space for yourself. 

In professional football matches, most players avoid doing Rainbow Flicks because there’s a high risk of not perfectly executing the move and giving away the ball to the opponenets, but in Rematch it’s safer and the ball usually lands on your feet to score those crispy goals and get styles points for your highlight clips.
