Below is every major Objective group currently available, along with the best way to complete them efficiently.
Journey of Nations
Journey of Nations is the main Festival of Football Objective program. Each continent contains several nation-specific challenges that reward special players and Tokens, followed by a Completionist reward.
South America
Available objectives include:
Fastest method
Build a hybrid South American squad containing players from multiple countries. Since many objectives simply require goals, assists, wins, or appearances using specific nationalities, you can progress several objectives in Squad Battles on Semi-Pro or Professional difficulty simultaneously.
Africa
Current objectives include:
- Senegal
- Ghana + Morocco
- Côte d'Ivoire
- DR Congo + Cape Verde
- Egypt + Tunisia
- South Africa
- African Pride
- Target Man
- Africa Completionist (Jay-Jay Okocha)
Fastest method
Complete nation objectives together whenever possible. For example, using squads with mixed African players allows you to finish assists, goals, and match-play requirements at the same time before claiming Jay-Jay Okocha through Africa Completionist.
Asia & Oceania
Current objectives:
- Saudi Arabia
- Republic of Korea
- Japan
- Australia
- New Zealand
- Uzbekistan + Qatar
- Perfect Volley
- Asia/Oceania
- Asia + Oceania Completionist (Saeed Al Owairan)
Fastest method
Most objectives only require scoring, assisting, or winning with players from specific nations, making Squad Battles the quickest mode. You can also combine Saudi, Japanese, Korean, and Australian players into one squad to maximize progress each match.
North America
Current objectives:
- USA
- Canada
- Mexico
- Haiti/Panama
- Captain's Header
- Dempsey's Journey
- Street Soccer
- Brazil '94 Triumph
- North America Completionist (Hugo Sánchez)
Fastest method
Rush mode helps with Street Soccer, while Squad Battles remains the easiest place to complete nationality objectives. Once every nation group is complete, you'll unlock Hugo Sánchez through the Completionist reward.
Journey of Nations Completionist
Once every continental Completionist objective has been finished, you'll unlock the overall Completionist rewards.
Rewards include:
- Festival of Football Diego Maradona
- Bonus cosmetics
- This is currently one of the biggest long-term grinds in Ultimate Team.
Glory Hunters
Several Glory Hunters objectives are active.
Available groups include:
These objectives mostly revolve around playing matches, completing Evolutions, and earning Tokens. Since many overlap with Journey of Nations objectives, they're worth progressing together.
Player-themed objectives

Current featured objectives include:
These usually require completing themed gameplay actions such as finesse shots, volleys, assists, headers, or goals using specific players or nations.

Best order to complete Objectives
If you're looking to maximize rewards with the least amount of grinding, follow this order:
- Complete Daily and Weekly Objectives first.
- Finish any Live Event objectives before they expire.
- Work through Journey of Nations using nationality-based hybrid squads.
- Complete Glory Hunters alongside Journey of Nations.
- Finish Season 8 Exhibition objectives.
- Grind permanent Milestone objectives over time.
This route lets you stack multiple objectives in the same matches while collecting the maximum number of Festival of Football Tokens, Evolution consumables, packs, and special players. The current Objective rotation heavily rewards efficient squad building, so using hybrid teams with players from multiple featured nations is the fastest way to complete several groups at once.
The current Festival of Football program is one of the most rewarding Ultimate Team events of the year, with dozens of free special players-including Carlos Alberto, Jay-Jay Okocha, Saeed Al Owairan, Hugo Sánchez, and the ultimate reward, Festival of Football Diego Maradona-available simply by completing Objectives
