Ultimate team rivals bug

Hello,

I am having the exact same issue on (EAFC25 PC) and unfortunately way worse since the big update. The best way i can describe it is that I lose control of my players for long periods of time as well as countless amount of times during a  rivals or champs game and not only that but everytime i take a corner kick and try to either swap the player or adjust the kick direction, i lose complete control and no controller input is registering except for the options/pause button. After the time runs out and the player just shoots by themself, i lose control yet again and can't even playerswap to even have a chance at defending and end up conceding a goal in the end.

When i eventually do have control over my players to make runs forward and pass the ball, the player suddenly passes it backwards and i again lose control of their movement except for any movement with the ball such as passing or shooting and when i try to pass it forward, it passes it backwards to my defender and eventually back to my keeper who then scores an own goal. 

This problem has occurred since the big update and it's costing me time and effort in an attempt to rank up in rivals and to qualify which i have failed to do in both because this bug keeps costing me countless of games. Extremely weird how i lose control over my own players but can pause the game without any issue so i can leave the game.
