Rush in FC 26 not working – always says “No teammates found”

Im having the same issue. Ive wasted 3 hours of the trial tring to play rush and co op with my brother to no avail. I just played a rivals game solo but was just too upset that on the only night i can play co op it doesnt work. Was trying to get the remaining rivals points for upgraded rewards. I hope ea extend the rivals for a day for their problems.
