The Dream Big challenge is a limited-time Live Objective in EA SPORTS FC™ 25 Ultimate Team. To complete it, players must perform specific actions—goals, assists, finesse shots, and yes, even a bicycle kick—to earn powerful rewards, including an exclusive Dream Chasers player card.
Once all objectives are completed, you’ll earn:
🎁 85+ Player Pick
🎁 87+ Player Pick
🎯 Dream Chasers version of Odobert
💫 Multiple PlayStyle+ players for squad depth
⚠️ Note: Odobert is not a live player item but still offers great stats and playability.
To unlock all Dream Big rewards, here’s what you’ll need to complete:
✅ Play 1 match in any Ultimate Team mode
🏆 Win 6 matches
⚽ Score 8 goals (any mode)
🎯 Score 10 goals in Rivals, Champs, or FUT Friendlies
🚀 Score 3 goals from outside the box
🔥 Score 3 goals in a single match
🔄 Assist 4 goals using through balls
💥 Score 4 power shots
🎨 Score 4 finesse shots
🌀 Score 1 bicycle kick goal
The bicycle kick is by far the most difficult part of the Dream Big objective due to EA’s strict animation detection. Below is a step-by-step method to improve your chances:
🎮 Controls (PS/Xbox): Hold L2/LT + Shoot
✅ Must be an aerial cross or lob, not a ground pass
⚠️ Player must be facing away or sideways from goal—side volleys and scissor kicks may not count
Best for players who don’t have online friends or want to complete it fast
Head to FUT Friendlies → Couch Play
Set difficulty to Amateur (Beginner works, but corners are harder to force)
Choose a team with a player that has Acrobatic PlayStyle+
Focus on generating corner or lobs into the box
Cross the ball and press L2 + Shoot when airborne—try different angles
Repeat until EA recognizes the goal as a bicycle kick (usually within 2–6 matches)
Invite a friend to a Classic Match
Take turns letting each other score goals
Use corners to set up aerial passes
Friend can manually move the goalkeeper away to make it easier
Complete all objectives in one sitting (5–10 minutes)
Try using fc25 coins to unlock stronger attackers with aerial abilities
Practice using low lob crosses and aim for central areas
Be patient—animation timing is key
