how to do knuckle ball shot in gfc 26

To do a knuckleball shot in FC 26 / “GFC 26” , place the free-kick reticle with the right stick so it sits close to the center-bottom of the ball, then keep the shot with minimal spin and use about 3 to 4 bars of power. Timing matters too: release the shot cleanly so the ball travels with that wobbling, unpredictable flight instead of a heavy curve.

Quick setup

  1. Take the free kick from a central position if possible.
  2. Move the aiming marker to a more central strike point on the ball.
  3. Keep the trajectory fairly straight, not heavily curved.
  4. Use strong but not maxed power, usually around 3 to 4 bars.
  5. Shoot with a player who has good Free Kick Accuracy , Shot Power , or Dead Ball traits.

What helps most

  • A player with high shot power and free-kick accuracy makes the technique much more consistent.
  • The shot works best when you avoid too much side spin, since the whole point is to get that knuckle-like wobble.
  • Don’t max the power bar, because that can send the ball over the goal.

Common mistakes

  • Adding too much curve instead of keeping the strike clean.
  • Under-powering the shot, which gives the keeper time to react.
  • Aiming too tightly at the post, leaving no room for natural drift.

TL;DR: center the strike point, keep spin low, and use about 3–4 bars of power with a good free-kick taker.
