To score a trivela goal in EA SPORTS FC Soccer Mobile 26, approach the penalty box at a diagonal angle on your player's dominant-foot side, aim toward the far post, and execute a finesse shot at 45% to 65% power. Angling the shooter's body across the face of the goal forces the game engine to select an outside-of-the-boot strike instead of a standard instep shot.

Positioning and Approach Angles

The engine determines whether to trigger an outside-foot shot based on running momentum, active foot preference, and body orientation relative to the net. Running straight at the goal causes players to shoot with standard laces. To force the trivela animation, carry the ball diagonally between 18 and 22 yards out, then release sprint briefly right before striking to ensure clean contact.

Input Controls for Trivela Shots

You can execute trivela shots using either virtual buttons or touch gestures.

Virtual Button Execution

  1. Dribble diagonally across the edge of the 18-yard box to establish an open shooting lane on the player's dominant side.
  2. Press the Shoot button and drag downward to engage the finesse modifier.
  3. Fill the power gauge between 45% and 65%. Charging above 70% overrides the finesse curve into a high-powered laces strike, while charging under 45% leaves the ball easy for keepers to catch.
  4. Direct the virtual joystick toward the far post until the kicking animation finishes.

Gesture Swipe Execution

  1. Steer the attacker along a 30 to 45-degree diagonal trajectory toward the penalty box.
  2. Swipe an arc starting from the ball toward the far corner of the net.
  3. Bend the drawn path outward before curling it back toward the target to instruct the ball trajectory to whip past the goalkeeper.

While any attacker can trigger an outside-foot shot under ideal positioning, specific technical profiles produce far more reliable results against contested defenses:

  • Outside Foot Shot Trait: Players with this trait automatically favor outside-of-the-boot finishes without requiring extreme approach angles.
  • Curve (85+): Increases mid-flight ball deviation to bypass diving goalkeepers.
  • Long Shot and Finishing (85+): Maintains shot speed and accuracy from outside the 18-yard line.
  • Shot Power (80–92): Keeps the strike fast enough to beat high-rated goalkeepers while remaining low enough to dip under the crossbar.

Avoid attempting trivelas from inside the six-yard box, where standard low-driven shots convert more reliably. Reserve trivelas for situations 16 to 22 yards out when a defender commits inward to block standard inside-foot finesse passes.
