Momentum Dribbling
Stat boostChecked
In one sentence
+6 Dribbling, Tight Possession, Speed and Acceleration while he has the ball at least 18 m into the opponent half.
Who does this affect?
Both: any ball holder with the skill, whether you or the CPU control him.
How it works
While he is on the ball and at least 18 m past the halfway line, four stats get +6: Dribbling, Tight Possession, Speed and Acceleration. The boost switches on and off with the condition. Like every conditional skill boost it is capped at 99 before booster points, so a stat already at 99 gains nothing; booster points are then added on top as usual.
When it applies
- He has the ball.
- He is at least 18 m past the halfway line, towards the opponent goal (roughly the attacking third).
- Checked all the time: the boost stops as soon as he loses the ball or drops back behind that line.
Without it
No change to his stats.
Which stats it reads
Dribbling, Tight Possession, Speed, Acceleration raised by the skill
+6 each, added before the 99 cap: a stat of 93 or less gains the full +6, 94–98 gain only up to 99, 99 gains nothing. Booster points are added after the cap and are never cut. Best on players in the 60s to 80s.
Speed and Dribbling (top speed with the ball) sets how strong
Together they set his top speed on the ball, so the +6 makes him up to about 0.9 km/h faster with the ball (stats 60–84); less from 85 up, nothing at 99.

Common questions
Does Momentum Dribbling raise his speed?
Short answerYes
+6 Speed and +6 Acceleration as well as Dribbling and Tight Possession: up to about 0.9 km/h more top speed with the ball.
Does it work anywhere in the opponent half?
Short answerNo
Only from 18 m past halfway, roughly the attacking third.
Is it useful on a player with 99 Dribbling and Speed?
Short answerPartly
Not for those two stats, which are already capped. It still helps Tight Possession and Acceleration if they are below 99.
Does it work without the ball, on runs?
Short answerNo
He must have the ball.
Do booster points make it useless?
Short answerNo
Booster points are added after the cap and are never cut, so a 95 card with +5 boosters plays at 99 + 5 = 104 with the skill (100 without).
Not yet confirmed
- The direction of the 18 m zone is read from the team’s attack direction; consistent with the skill text, not checked live.
The maths
ConditionOnly with the ball and at least 18 m past halfway.
LimitThe +6 stops at 99 before booster points: a 99 stat gains nothing, a 96 stat gains +3. Booster points still add on top.
DetailSpeed and Dribbling together set top speed with the ball: up to about 0.9 km/h faster with the skill.
DetailNot used by this skill: Ball Control, Balance, Physical Contact — not boosted; Off-the-ball runs — the boost needs him to have the ball
