Ultimate Trial 3 in FC 26 Ultimate Team has landed, and that long list of objectives can look pretty intimidating. But don’t panic – the rewards are actually worth it, and if you go about it the right way, the grind is nowhere near as bad as it seems. With a clear plan instead of just diving in blindly, you’ll get through it quicker and maybe even stack up some extra FC 26 Coins along the way.
First, group your objectives
Looking at each task one by one will make it feel endless. EA often designs these challenges so that you can tick off several at the same time. The first thing you should do is read through all the objectives and spot the ones you can work on together. For example, if one task asks you to “score 10 goals with English players in Squad Battles or Rivals,” and another says “win 7 Squad Battles matches (minimum Semi-Pro difficulty),” the answer’s obvious. Build a squad centred around English players and head straight into Squad Battles. Every win and every goal can count towards more than one objective – that’s what efficiency is all about.
Squad Battles are your best mate
Unless the objective specifically says you have to play in Rivals or Champions, I’d strongly suggest doing most of them in Squad Battles. Why? Because you control the difficulty. Tricky goals – like “assist with a cross from a defender” or “score after a skill move” – are a nightmare against real players in Rivals. In Squad Battles, you can pick Semi-Pro or Pro, and the AI defence is much easier to break down. You’ll have loads of time and space to try things out and farm the stats you need. Don’t make life harder for yourself – seriously.
Tailor your squad for the job
To get certain objectives done, you might need players you would never normally use. Don’t be tight with your coins – head to the transfer market and buy a few cheap but effective gold cards that fit the requirements, like a specific nationality or league. What should you look for? Pace and shooting. A fast striker, even with a low overall rating, will feel like a superstar in low-difficulty Squad Battles. Spend a few thousand coins on these “mission specialists” and you’ll save hours of frustration. Once you’re done, sell them back – you won’t lose much.
Little tricks for defensive objectives
Clean sheet challenges can be more annoying than scoring ones, because you never know when the AI will smash in a screamer. My tip: in Squad Battles, once you’re 2–3 goals up, start controlling the game. Stop going all-out in attack – pass the ball around between your defenders and keeper, keeping it in your own half. As long as you don’t give the ball away, the AI won’t press too hard. Just waste the clock until the final whistle. It’s boring, sure, but it’s safe and it works.
Bottom line – smashing Ultimate Trial 3 comes down to planning and efficiency. Don’t grind each objective in isolation; combine them, play in the mode that suits best, and use the right players for the job. You’ll save contracts, stamina, and a lot of time – leaving you free to enjoy the rest of the game or maybe check the market for some good FC 26 Coins for sale.
