CRITICAL BUG: D-Pad "Get In The Box" Command Fails ONLY in Ultimate Team —

I am reporting a severe tactical bug that is exclusive to Ultimate Team in EA Sports FC 26.

The Issue: During any Ultimate Team match (Rivals, Squad Battles, or Champions), the "Get In The Box" d-pad command (Up > Down) fails to activate. The command does not "flick the switch" in the tactical UI, and my players remain stagnant, refusing to make runs into the box.

Crucial Evidence: This is not a hardware issue. I have tested this extensively in Kick Off mode, and the d-pad commands work perfectly there. The failure only occurs within the Ultimate Team environment. This suggests a conflict between the UT tactical engine (FC IQ) and the manual d-pad overrides.

Impact on Gameplay: Being unable to trigger this command "cripples" my ability to compete. While my opponents can attack freely, my AI-controlled players become unresponsive and fail to support the attack. This technical failure creates an unfair competitive disadvantage that prevents me from progressing in Rivals and other UT modes.

I request that you investigate why these tactical overrides are being blocked or ignored specifically in the Ultimate Team mode on Xbox.

Account/System Info:

Console: Xbox Series S

Game Mode Affected: Ultimate Team Only

Specific Command: D-pad Up > Down (Get In The Box)
