After the match

Section titled “After the match”

Three things happen:

  1. XP awarded — each player on the pitch earns XP across multiple stats based on what they did. You’ll see “+N stat bumps unlocked” if any XP bucket crossed the 1500 threshold and bumped a stat.
  2. Career stats updated — goals, assists, tackles, passes, etc. tick up.
  3. Sync banner appears — if any new bumps happened, the Squad page shows “+X% squad power locked — sync to unleash” and prompts you to sync before your next match.
