All EA FC 25 Skill Moves and how to perform them

There have been several new additions to the list of EA FC 25 Skill Moves, providing gamers with more options than ever to break down their opponent's defense and score a lot of goals. These maneuvers have always been the most efficient and overpowered attacking method in the meta of the game, with experienced players using them to the best of their abilities.

While some of these moves are extremely overpowered, pulling them off isn't always the easiest task. To optimally perform these moves, gamers must practice and learn the controls, as well as the best positions to use them. This article will focus on the controls for all these moves.

These are all the EA FC 25 Skill Moves you can use to dribble past your opponents with ease

The right analog stick is the focal point when it comes to the controls of almost all EA FC 25 Skill Moves. While there are often other buttons involved, such as modifiers in the form of the LT/LB button or the RT/RB buttons on Xbox, and the L1/L2 or the R1/R2 buttons on PlayStation, the right analog stick is always required to perform the maneuver.

These are the controls for all the Skill Moves, along with the star rating required for the player to be able to execute them:
