Own goal, celebration and finally the multiple repetition of the goal – this combination causes frustration for many FIFA 19 players. The community demands: Skip the celebration. We show you how to skip the celebration.
To counteract the frustration that arises when you’re stuck waiting for the opponent in FIFA 19, some fans are now trying unusual ways: On Reddit, they are trying to establish a “celebration skip”.
The worst FIFA moment: Do you know that feeling? You are comfortably leading in Ultimate Team mode until the 85th minute, and you just need to bring the victory home.
Suddenly, the opponent makes a sprint: Magically, the striker leaves three of your defenders behind and sinks the ball in the net. Equalizer! And if it gets really bad, you concede the second goal in the 90th minute.
The total humiliation: It would not be so bad if you didn’t have to watch the whole thing in at least three times. First, the opponent celebrates the goal extensively, watches all the replays, and finally lets the kickoff animation run to the end.
Meanwhile, you are sitting on hot coals and want to keep playing – many Reddit users can relate to this feeling.
Players demand: Enough with the Celebrations!
This is what players criticize: A player has started a call on Reddit to skip celebrations and replays and go directly with the kickoff.
The approach has found many supporters. Especially Weekend League players who want to play 30 matches appreciate every second saved.
A player reports: “I played against three players yesterday who watched everything again – the matches lasted 25 minutes!”
This is how you skip the celebration: What many don’t know: There is a simple method in FIFA 19 to skip all celebrations and replays.
Simply press L1 + R1 (PS4)/ LB + RB (Xbox One) immediately after the goal, and the game will skip directly back to the kickoff.
This is what the discussion aims to achieve: From the forum, it becomes clear that not many players know this small button combination. The post aims to inform more players about the skip option.
A user took a particularly creative approach: “My club name on PS4 is ‘L1+R1 skip celeb’ – I skip too, but unfortunately, my opponents do not. I wish I could write the complete word “celebration” – but it’s too long.”
Discussion: Celebrate – Yes or No?
This is what opponents of the action say: Counter-arguments are also being raised. One user emphasizes that some players just want to celebrate their goals. This is also met with unanimous agreement, but with the caveat that not every rebound goal really needs to be celebrated.
Another point that many bring against the cessation: Many opponents simply do not skip and do not deserve to be rewarded with quick stoppages in return. Therefore, some players test their opponents: “I skip my first goal. If the opponent does not do that, he will see the Dab on the next goal” – especially the Dab celebration causes anger when conceding goals.
Celebrations contribute to the atmosphere: The best argument for celebrations is that they make the game more authentic. After all, certain stars like Ronaldo or Griezmann are known for their unique celebrations. Ultimately, it is also fun to watch and celebrate particularly well-executed goals again.
Whether you like to celebrate or skip directly to the kickoff – to even get into this situation, goals are needed. One type of goal that is particularly good for celebrating: The perfectly executed free kick. Here you can find tips on how your set pieces end up in the opponent’s net:
