Persistent FPS degradation after halftime – still unresolved after updates (PC)

I am posting this out of genuine frustration and disappointment.

EA Sports FC 26 on PC continues to suffer from severe FPS degradation during matches, particularly after halftime. The game starts smoothly, then becomes slow, unresponsive, and unpleasant to play.

This issue persists despite multiple updates released by EA that were intended to address performance problems. In my case, the situation has not improved and may even be worse.

This is not a hardware or configuration problem. I run other demanding games without issues, and previous FC editions worked fine on the same system.

Many PC players across Steam and EA Answers HQ are reporting the same problem. This appears to be a core engine or optimization issue that still has not been properly resolved.

I regret purchasing FC 26 and sincerely hope EA acknowledges this problem and delivers a real fix, not just minor adjustments. At the moment, the game does not meet acceptable performance standards on PC.
