Hey Steam Community!

We've updated match outcomes in FC 26 so that you can get a win sooner if the opponent Quits/Disconnects On A Draw during Live Events, Rivals, and Champions matches. One of these conditions must apply in order for a win to be awarded:

- **\** 10 minutes (in-game time) has passed. This was previously 20 minutes.

- The quitting/disconnecting player concedes a penalty kick.

- The quitting/disconnecting player has received a red card

A player can only receive a win from this 3 times a day, with the limit resetting at 00:00 UTC daily.
