Second Man Press (R1) not working on some EA accounts – green indicator missing
Hi everyone,
I’m having an issue in EA SPORTS FC 26 where Second Man Press (R1) does not work on my EA account.
What happens:
- When holding R1, the green indicator never appears
- The AI player does NOT press the opponent, only stands nearby
- This happens in all modes
- Same PS5 console
- Same controller
- Same settings
- R1 works perfectly when logging in with another EA account on the SAME console.
I’ve already contacted EA Support and the issue has been logged as a bug, but marked as “No Fix Available” for now.
I’m posting here to check:
👉 Does anyone else have this issue where R1 / Second Man Press does NOT work on their account?
👉 Especially if it works on another account on the same console?
If you have the same problem, please reply or upvote so this gets more visibility.
Thanks!
