Matthieu Epolo 73 OVR - FC 26

Use low-driven shots and crowded-box runs. The first save is less valuable if rebound lanes are occupied by two runners.

Deliver earlier crosses from half-space and far-post traffic. This stresses aerial timing and punch/claim decisions.

Screen short options and force rushed long kicks. Trap second balls from the forced distribution line.

Mix body shape and strike placement to avoid predictable set positions before contact.

Use a calm build-up with two short outlets and one screening pivot so the goalkeeper can choose safe progression lines.

Keep CB-CDM spacing tight to turn saves and blocks into clear second-ball wins.

A medium-high line works best when the defenders in front can recover and screen direct channels.

Pair him with strong aerial markers so his handling phase is protected by first-contact support.
