Upcoming: “Congo”
Stat boostChecked
In one sentence
Not yet released. A defending skill: +3 Aggression, Tackling and Physical Contact while an opponent has the ball and he is within about 34.5 m of his own goal line.
Who does this affect?
Both: it raises his stats whether you or the CPU controls him.
How it works
Not yet released. Described from the code of this game version (11.1.1); it may change before release. Whenever an opponent has the ball and this player stands within about 34.5 m of his own goal line (18 m or more inside his own half), he gets +3 Aggression, +3 Tackling and +3 Physical Contact. There is no position, time or score condition, so it works for any player who drops that deep. A loose ball does not count.
When it applies
- An opponent has the ball (not a loose ball).
- He is within about 34.5 m of his own goal line. Only the distance up the pitch counts.
- Any position; checked all the time.
Without it
No boost.
Which stats it reads
Aggression, Tackling, Physical Contact raised by the skill
+3 each, added before the 99 cap: 96 or lower gains the full +3, 97-98 part of it, 99 nothing. Booster points are added afterwards and never cut.
Common questions
Does it work only for defenders?
Short answerNo
There is no position check; any player in that zone gets it.
Does it work when the ball is loose?
Short answerNo
Only while an opponent has the ball.

The maths
ConditionOpponent in possession and he is within about 34.5 m of his own goal line.
LimitFull +3 up to 96; nothing at 99 (before booster points).
DetailPhysical Contact also counts in shoulder-to-shoulder duels, so it helps him there while the conditions hold.
