How to finish the Estêvão objective in FC 26

Want to unlock Festival of Football: National Pride Red Estêvão as fast as possible? The National Pride Estêvão objective can be finished in just 8 games, and it also moves you one step closer to the 98 FUTTIES Icon Frank Lampard.

Here is exactly how to set up your squad and what to focus on in each match so you can get it done efficiently.

Best way to complete the Estêvão objective

The cleanest way to complete this objective is in the A Star is Born (Penalty) Cup for the first four matches, then Squad Battles (Min. Semi-Pro), although Rivals, Champions, and other Live Events also count.

Because the requirements overlap so well, you can build one simple squad and clear everything in the same 8 matches:

• 6x Brazilians players
• 6x Premier League players

Estêvão objective squad setup

Games 1-4

Your first four matches should be played in the A Star is Born Cup, where you can start working on the Brazilian midfielder goal requirement while also picking up wins.

Squad setup:

• 6x Brazilians players
• 6x Premier League players

What to do in each game:

• Win the match.
• Score with Brazilian midfielders.
• Start building toward your Finesse Goal total where possible.

These are quick matches and you can get through these easily but the can be done in other game modes as well, we only suggest the cup for speed if you're good at penalty shootouts.

Games 5-8

Once the Cup games are done, move into Squad Battles, Rivals, Champions, or Live Events and use the same squad.

What to finish off:

• Win 4 games.
• Score 3 Finesse Goals.
• Complete 2 assists in 4 matches with a 5-star Skill Move player.
• Finish the remaining Brazilian midfielder goals if you still need them.

If you are playing Squad Battles on Semi-Pro, this should be the easiest part of the grind. Focus on scoring early, then control possession and shut the game down once you are ahead.
