Why making certain teams significantly better than all the rest?

Why is it that every time i play Real Madrid, my team hardly responds anymore? Why do my defenders run away from attackers, leaving boulevards of space for Mbappe and Vini Jr to run into, while every Real Madrid player i play against has a compact defense, impossible to beat? Why is it that only while playing against Real my attackers suddenly stop running in full.attack, skill moves hardly work anymore, shooting is delayed etc? That it is impossible to win a duel for the ball, defenders don't intercept passes anymore, or engage the opponent, even if they are at 20cms of the ball?  That, when i press R1 to block a shot, that defender is suddenly positioned meters away from the attacker? That I conceive penalties and red cards because players i don't even control bump into a Real player?

I'm quite capable of winning most of my games against other teams, but against Real it's practically impossible. I often think you actually need to make an effort trying to lose one if you play with them.

It's not only in EA FC25, this was in the 24 one as well, possibly even worse

    ...and another frustrating game against Real, full of controversial situations and unnatural behaviour.

    2 penalties conceived which were totally none, + a goal from Vini Jr where he just walks through my defense. I manage to take the ball from him at least 4 times but he just continues walking and scores.

    At least 3 times that a Real player tries to tackle me without success, and before i can even change direction, the tackler gets up and steals the ball from me. Once even from a Doku at full speed. Now please explain to me how this is anatomically even possible!

    Couldn't count the number of times my attackers stopped doing anything the moment they get into the opponents 16, passes going into the opposite direction from where i was aiming for or players that ran straight towards the opponents goal while i was trying to direct them left or right. And all of this in just one game... 🤦
