FUT BIRTHDAY PARTY: WEEK 2 'bring the cake objective not registering'

Hi everyone,

Im currently playing fc26 on Xbox Series X, and I'm having issues with the FUT Birthday Party; bring the cake objective.

The objective says perform a back-heel with a Brazilian player, but doesn't seem to be registering for me. I've completed this action multiple times using Brazilian players in matches but nine of them have counted towards the objective. Also tried doing the back-heel in different situations and matches but progress still stays at zero. Its getting really frustrating because it feels like the objective either isn't tracking properly or the requirements are extremely difficult to trigger.

Also, the difficulty of this objective seems a bit too high compared to others.  It feels like only very high skilled level or pro players are able to complete it consistently.

Could someone from the team please check if there's an issue with the tracking for this objective, or clarify exactly what counts as a valid back-heel for it?

Thanks

    yeah word I've done it so many times don't count lol

  • Same here, it is super annoying, i keep trying it. To do it, i lowered the level of my opponents on Squad Battles and probably lost my ranking and prizes this week. But i am still on ZERO. I am rewatching the goals and the assists are definitely back heel passes. If there is a further expectation, they should make it way clear than this simple line of objective, or prepare a video tutorial for the mission. I mean what is the idea of this twisted mission anyway. The big brains behind this game this year are gonna make me go back to PES 11 soon.

    Mine is stuck at 3/5, have wasted so many games filling my team with Brazilians trying to  score from backheel assists. Easily the most stupid objective I’ve seen

    Yep. This is just not working. It looks like there's some specific animation required, even though when I watch back the highlights I can see that my player is doing a backheel to a player behind them that then go on to score. This is a full Brazil squad I'm running, and all my forwards have inventive and ground passes are set to manual so I can better control who the pass is going to (switched to this following advice). Its really frustrating putting an objective in for such something so glitchy.

  • EA please change the weekly objective to 5 out of 6, so we do not need to complete this stupid back heel objective that is not registering
