EA Sports has worked hard so that women’s soccer has a place in its games and, as one of the covers of EA SPORTS FC 24That won’t change anytime soon. This is an important and worthwhile effort, but some do not see it that way and prefer to take offense at the possibility that EA SPORTS FC 24 have mixed soccer matches.
Recently a leak began to circulate that ensures that EA SPORTS FC 24 will have mixed soccer matches. The above since apparently the first Ultimate Team mode of EA SPORTS FC will present the top stars of men’s and women’s soccer.
Thus, the leak indicates that the players will have the opportunity to create a team that has stars like Jude Bellingham or Erling Haaland playing side by side with Sam Kerr or Alexia Putellas. According to some, this is unrealistic and offends them so much that they are willing to boycott the soccer franchise that they usually buy year after year.
Some in the FIFA gaming community are losing their mind over what looks like women being added to EA Sports FC’s Ultimate Team mode
I don’t even think it’s been 100% confirmed men and women will be mixed in one mode. All the while, EA is getting a ton of publicity for the game pic.twitter.com/FbSd2tIIUB

“The problem is not that [las mujeres] are in the game. The problem is that they are mixing them with men which cannot be done in real life. And the only way to do that is to lie about the women’s statistics,” said one of the players who plans to boycott EA SPORTS FC 24.

Coed soccer is real, albeit rare
Interestingly, although some say that a mixed soccer match is impossible, in reality it is something that has happened in real sport, although not yet in top-level competitive matches. Last week in Mexico, The Match was held, a friendly match in which Club de Futbol Pachuca and Club León faced mixed squads made up of their first division soccer players. For her part, in 2020 Yuki Nagasato, world champion with Japan in 2011, became the first woman to sign and play with a men’s team, the Hayabusa Eleven.
In this way it is clear that mixed football is not impossible. In any case, it is a more realistic possibility than seeing Lionel Messi playing with Pelé, Johan Cruyff or Diego Armando Maradona. Something that Ultimate Team has let players do thanks to FUT ICONS.
It should be noted that, until now, EA Sports has not said if it is true that it will be possible to have mixed soccer matches in EA SPORTS FC 24. We will stay tuned and let you know when we know more about it.
