How to play Rush in EA SPORTS FC™ 25

What is Rush?

Rush is a fast-paced 5v5 mode, where you play on a small-sided pitch with three other players. It’s available in four modes:

Ultimate Team™
Clubs
Manager Career (Couch Co-op only)
Kick Off (Couch Co-op only).

In Clubs and Ultimate Team™, each Rush team has five players: four user-controlled outfield players and an AI-controlled goalkeeper. In Kick Off and Manager Career, you’ll have control over the entire team, except the goalkeeper.Rush matches last seven minutes with no half-times and the team with the most goals wins. If there’s a tie, you play an extra 2:20min, followed by 1-on-1 Penalty Shootouts if the tie remains.Learn more about Rush mode in our deep dive.
