how to bicycle kick in fc 26
Here’s the simplest way to do a bicycle kick in FC 26: get the ball into the air with a high or flare cross, then use a flair shot as the ball arrives. On PlayStation, that usually means L2 + Square for the cross and L2 + Circle for the shot; on Xbox, LT + X for the cross and LT + B for the shot.
Setup
The move works best when your striker is facing away from goal or receiving the ball over their shoulder, because the animation needs space and the right body position. A clean setup is often a wide cross, a corner, or a lofted pass into the box.
Input timing
- Send in a high or flare cross.
- As the ball drops toward your player, lightly pop it up with the right stick if needed.
- Hold the flair-shot modifier and press shoot to trigger the bicycle kick attempt.
Tips
- Use players with better acrobatic or attacking attributes, since timing and positioning matter a lot.
- Practice in offline matches or skill games first, because the move is very timing-sensitive.
- Corners and lofted crosses are usually the easiest situations to try it from.
