Three new ‘Man of the Match’ items were released by EA on Wednesday, honoring some standout performances from the Swedish league, the Allsvenskan.
Östersunds FK striker Saman Ghoddos and IFK Norrköping striker Karl Holmberg, in addition to SV Zulte-Waregem goalkeeper Sammy Bossut all received orange cards, which were upgrades from their respective bronze and silver NIF items.

Ghoddos had previously received a silver in-form item, boosting his 67 overall rating to a 71. Here, his new rating is bumped to a 74, which is the maximum upgrade possible for a silver card before it turns gold.

If you happen to be running an all-silver squad, this card could be a pretty valuable addition. 87 Pace and 78 Shooting are decent stats, and 70 Physical for a striker could be enough to shove off most other silver defenders.

As for the other two, none of their base stats really jump out. To be fair, Holmberg’s stats are pretty balanced for a 64-rated striker. Bossut’s 80 Reflexes highlight his 74-rated goalie card.
For the aspiring FUT collector, these are just two more items to add to your club.
