EA FC 24 Career Mode Passive Opponents

Product: EA SPORTS FC 24
Platform:PC
Please specify your platform model. Steam - PC
AMD or Nvidia Model Number RTX 2060 Super
Enter RAM memory size in GB 32
Which mode has this happened in? Career Mode
Which part of the mode? Player Career
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? You just need to start a game in career mode (it happens in player mode or manager mode), set the difficulty to the highest.
What happens when the bug occurs? The opponents play completely passively, as if the difficulty level were the easiest. The midfielders are passive, and the defense doesn't cover spaces. Moreover, the goalkeeper doesn't dive for the ball, and often, you can just run into the goal with the ball.
What should be happening instead? The opponents should pressure you while you have possession of the ball and try to steal it from you on many occasions if you make mistakes. The goalkeeper should at least dive for the ball, and the defense shouldn't let you pass so easily

I've attached a video where I'm not making an effort to play well, and in some instances, I don't even run with the player to see if any defender approaches me.

I think I've found the root of the problem. For some reason, my CPU settings were modified (I never touch that). The CPU acceleration was set to 1, and the injury percentage was lowered as well (there might be more changes, but I didn't take a screenshot or check; I simply restored the values to their default settings).
Solution:
Restore to default configuration in the Settings > Game Settings > CPU Controls section and click on the Default Values option (Y on the Xbox controller, triangle on the PlayStation one).

@andronovm If I'm not mistaken, the error also occurs in quick matches, at least in my case.

@FerSuu It started happening to me after I changed the defense to either tactical or advanced from the preset.
