FC 26 Online Match Quitting Exploit

I am extremely frustrated with the current state of online play in FC 26 on PlayStation.

Far too often, when I am winning a match, my opponent quits during the game, sometimes even during extra time, and I end up receiving no points or progress for the match. I have spent the time playing the entire game, earned my lead fairly, and then lose out on rewards because the other player decides to quit when they realise they are going to lose.

This creates a terrible experience for honest players. It allows people to avoid defeats while wasting the time of players who actually complete their matches.

What makes this even more frustrating is that I am paying for online features and services, yet this issue continues to exist. If a player quits while losing, the remaining player should automatically be awarded the win along with all points, rewards and progression.

I would like EA to explain why players who quit while losing can prevent their opponents from receiving points, what measures are being taken to stop this behaviour, and whether EA intends to automatically award wins and points when an opponent quits.

This issue has been affecting the online experience for far too long and seriously undermines the competitive integrity of FC 26.

I look forward to receiving a response and seeing meaningful action taken to address this problem.

    Happens so often, ruined the game. Litterally just came off 2 back to back games when I am thrashing my opponent but they discconect "you lost connection to your opponnent blah blah" and the game does not register as being played. WTF is this? I just checked and there are thousands of people complaining about this on different threads and no one from EA is even addressing it. I am not buying the next game it's pointless.
