The UEL round of 16 will be played starting March 11.
Headliners MOTM Cards
The knockout rounds in Champions League and Europa League are also exciting for another kind of dynamic cards: MOTM (Man of the Match) cards will find their way into the game in the coming days. It's quite obvious what the cards are, but just in case - the best performer in a game is given a special FUT card.
These MOTM cards in turn have a direct impact on the FUT Headliners, which, among other things, increase with each "performance-related special card".
After the decisive brace against Sevilla, there will be a Headliners upgrade for BVB striker Erling Haaland, whose card would increase to 90 OVR. Other MOTM cards in the first week of play go to Ozan Kabak (Liverpool) and Kylian Mbappé (PSG), among others. MOTM cards should also find their way into FIFA 21 on February 19.
