How to complete Sergio Ramos Player Moments FIFA 20 SBC: solution & cost

Real Madrid star Sergio Ramos’ Player Moments SBC has been released in FIFA 20 Ultimate Team to celebrate his game winner from right back against Mallorca in 2008/09, and we’ve got all the details on how to unlock the boosted card.

The Spanish world champion’s switch to the right flank of the defensive line seems to be an already-popular pick for many La Liga Ultimate Team players, especially with the 93-rated card’s rapid 89 pace — but is he worth crafting?

From in-game stats and value, to the cost of the squad-building challenge on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC, we’ve got you covered below.

Ramos’ SBC time limit, requirements, & cost

The four-time Champions League winner’s +4 upgrade was released on February 29, and will remain available as a challenge in FIFA 20 until the end of the annual release. That’s right, there’s no expiry date!

Ramos’ Player Moments SBC requires three challenges to complete – high-rated squads based around Real Madrid (86), La Liga (87), and Spain (87).

Real Madrid

• Players from Real Madrid: Min 1
• In-Form Players: Min 1
• Squad Rating: Min 86
• Team Chemistry: Min 70
• Players in the Squad: 11
• Reward: Premium Gold Players Pack

La Liga

• Players from La Liga: Min 1
• Squad Rating: Min 87
• Team Chemistry: Min 65
• Players in the Squad: 11
• Reward: Rare Electrum Players Pack

Spain

• Players from Spain: Min 1
• Squad Rating: Min 87
• Team Chemistry: Min 60
• Players in the Squad: 11
• Reward: Mega Pack

As of publishing, the two-squad challenge costs around 500,000 coins on Xbox One and PS4, while Origin PC-based players will face a little bit of a steeper price at 570,000, according to FIFA stats website Futbin.

Here is the cheapest squad for the Real Madrid puzzle. While Casemiro (87) and Benzema (87) cover the requirements, the key comes with the Paris Saint Germain defensive triangle ⁠— Thiago Silva, Marquinhos, and Navas ⁠— to get you over the line.

There’s a very French and Brazilian flavor to the cheapest La Liga solution, considering both nationalities play big roles in major teams. Oblak (91), Ter Stegen (90), and Griezmann (89) are key to boost the overall rating.

A few double-ups here ⁠— Griezmann, Ohana, and Ter Stegen especially ⁠— so feel free to grab two at once while you’re sniping these cards. Just don’t forget about Busquets (89), as he fulfills the Spanish requirement for the squad.

Why was Ramos given a Player’s Moment SBC?

While Ramos has become known as a warrior center-back in recent years, winning four UCL titles with Madrid while commanding the championship team’s defense from the heart of their backline, it wasn’t always that way.

In 2009/10, the now-33-year-old played every minute of Spain’s World Cup campaign in South Africa. The defender ticked off five clean sheets in the illustrious tournament, and started in the same role in the decider against the Netherlands.

There, Spain would lift the FIFA World Cup Trophy after a nail-biting 1–0 victory over their Dutch rivals. Andrés Iniesta scored the winning goal in the 116th minute of extra time, and Ramos kept another clean sheet in Johannesburg.

In club-land, Ramos would find disappointment as Real Madrid failed to edge their major rivals Barcelona. The Madridistas finished on 96 points, three behind Barca. The team lost both El Clásicos too, 1–0 and 2–0.

There was one shining moment from Ramos to crown the campaign, however, as he iced Madrid’s 3–0 victory over Mallorca with a stretching tap-in at the right post against the struggling Spanish squad — for which he earned his Player Moments card.

Ramos’ in-game stats & value

Considering Ramos’ rating has hit near-Team of the Year levels, it’s no surprise the Spanish defender is absolutely stacked in just about every stat ⁠— his pace and defense especially put him above most in the RB position.

While his pace, 89 with 91 acceleration and 87 sprint speed, maybe isn’t reaching superstar levels for a wingback, everything else is fantastic, including his 87 agility, huge 97 reactions, and even his 88 strength.

You could even consider swapping Ramos’ upgraded card into the midfield once the game begins considering he’d be such a lethal choice as a defensive midfielder, but his passing stat of 80 may let him down just a little.

The Spanish star’s SBC is still quite a valuable one to take a look at, however, because of one key feature ⁠— EA has yet to put an expiry date on the high-level card, meaning you can build towards it for the rest of the year.

For this reason alone, the 500k price tag probably isn’t too bad. Considering many Icon SBCs from years past would spit out 93-rated cards, and people would be work towards them, this seems like a similar puzzle and reward.

The bottom line is, this is one of the best defensive cards we’ve seen yet this FIFA, Icon level or otherwise, so if you’ve got the spare coins to start working towards the Real Madrid star, get to work ⁠— he’s certainly a top-tier pick.
