The Historian
Score a left foot volley against Coventry City in The Journey
For this trophy you take the role of Jim Hunter and the game starts off with a corner kick, it’s simply a matter of scoring from the corner kick as Jim Hunter.
If you fail to score using the left foot volley you will automatically restart from the corner kick so this is unmissable.
Hoop Dream
Score on the basketball hoop at Venice in The Journey
This can only been done after you complete the story side of “The Journey” and with that complete you will be playing a 3 vs 3 match in Venice Beach, this arena has basketball hoops so you need to kick the ball through one of these hoops, this can be difficult and it will take practice and luck to do.
Your best bet is to drop the difficulty to beginner so the AI won’t hassle you giving you time to take the shot.
Ensure shot assistance is turned off then pressing Circle to power up your shot to 2 bars the ball will be kicked into the air and hopefully go near the hoop eventually you will get the hang of it and score the required hoop to unlock your Trophy.
Anything You Can Do
Successfully complete a mentor challenge in The Journey
During the journey, Alex Hunter will be given the choice of picking between 2 mentor groups and then picking a mentor who will at some point offer a challenge which takes place as a skill game.
Simply complete this skill game to unlock your Trophy.
There Can Be Only One
Win the UEFA Champions League in The Journey
During the journey you will play as both Alex hunter and Danny Williams, both of these stories merge together for the UEFA Champions League final so pick one of the 2 players and make sure you win the match.
Once you have won the match, your Trophy will unlock.
Game Changer
Win the FIFA Women’s World Cup™ in The Journey
This forms part of Kim Hunters story in the journey and playing as Kim you’re given the opportunity to play for the national team at the World Cup finals.
This is simply a matter of playing each game and reaching the World Cup final then winning it to unlock your Trophy.
Deceiver
Score a goal by tricking the keeper with a Fake Shot
With each FIFA that releases you get to perform skill moves and for the Deceiver trophy you need to trick the goalie with a fake shot.
FIFA 19 has several fake shots you can perform and they will all work so when you’re through on goal press Circle followed by Cross where your player will perform the fake shot and if it goes in the net, will unlock your Trophy.
Skill Games Frenzy
Complete all Multiplayer Skill Games
Please Note: This trophy can only be completed with two controllers.
To start a multiplayer skill game you need to enter a load screen so choose kick off from the main menu and then classic match then with 2 controllers connected a multiplayer skill game will load up so complete it up to the point that you get a skill rating then repeat the process for all 10 of the multiplayer skill games which are as follows:
- Co-op shooting.
- Mininet snooker.
- Behind the dummies.
- Crossing mayhem.
- Course race.
- 1v1 challenge.
- Mininet race.
- Another brick in the wall.
- Precision shooting.
- 1 on 1 contest.
This is merely a complete the multiplayer skill games so your final grade is irrelevant, so once you have completed all 10 skill games, your Trophy will then unlock.
Perfectionist
Win a penalty shoot-out without missing
Although a penalty shootout sees each team take a total of 5 penalties, using 2 controllers this can be done with as few as only 3 penalties, start a classic match and let the clock run down then choose the play penalties option to commence the shootout.
Make sure you score your first 3 and the second controller misses at this point you will then win the shootout 3-0, unlocking your Trophy.
Quick Learner
Complete 3 Recommended Skill Games
Recommended skill games appear during load screens before matches start, so play a total of three of these and no matter the skill rating you receive your Trophy will unlock.
What a Shot!
During open play, score a long-distance goal with a defender (25 yards out)
The full length of a football pitch is around 115 yards so each half of a pitch is around 58 yards so you want to be close to the middle of the goal and halfway for a safe 25 yards.
What makes this tricky is having to use a defender so this is best done in a ultimate team squad battles match as every so often you will find a match versus the AI which has an outfield player in goal.
In these matches pass the ball to one of your defenders and let them dribble the ball to the halfway point of the opponents half as explained above and press Circle to take a shot, if the ball goes into the net and you’re the correct distance away, your Trophy will unlock.
If you’re struggling and have 2 controllers, this can be done by shooting with the defender in the correct spot and on the second controller pressing Triangle to rush the goalie out the goal leaving it open for the shot to be scored.
Timed to Perfection
Score a goal after Timing your Shot Perfectly
A new feature in FIFA 19 is timed shots which when done correctly makes them more effective but on the flip side if done poorly makes the shot easier to be saved for your opponent.
To time a shot perfectly, firstly make sure timed shots are turned on in the settings and also enable the FIFA trainer, with that done when you are attacking and in a good position to score press Circle a first time to start your timed bar which appears above the player you’re currently in control of.
This bar is red and green with a white cross hair so your aim is to press Circle for a second time then when the bar is in the green bit, this could take a few attempts to get used to but once you do get the hang of it.
It will become second nature and you can move onto the next part, which is simply making sure that a perfectly timed shot scores the subsequent goal at which point your Trophy will then unlock.
You Can’t Break Me Down
Win a Game using every Defensive Style
Another new feature in FIFA 19 is the ability to alter how the defensive styles work, to access the defensive style choose tactics just before a match starts to open up the menu then select the tactics tab.
You want to win a match using all 5 defensive styles which are:
- Balanced.
- Pressure on heavy touch.
- Press after possession loss.
- Constant pressure.
- Drop back.
I suggest playing with one style and winning that match before moving onto the next style that way the game will register a success for that defensive style when it saves and exits the match screen.
With a match won using all 5 styles your Trophy will unlock.
Tactics Master
Win a Game using every Offensive Style
The opposite of defensive styles are the offensive styles so just like You Can’t Break Me Down you want to play a game using all 4 offensive styles which are;
- Balanced.
- Long ball.
- Fast build up.
- Possession.
With a match won using all 4 offensive styles your Trophy will unlock.
Skill Games Legend
Get A grade across all Skill Games
Skill games make a welcome return and in a controlled environment of the training field giving you the opportunity to master some of the more intricate moves in FIFA whether that be as a defender or attacker.
Each skill game places you in a scenario directly around the skill and by performing well on that skill you score points and these points will at the conclusion of the skill game give you a final score which is then translated into a grade for that skill.
For Skill Games Champion you only need to secure a grade rating of C in each skill game for it to be classed as completed.
However, for Skill Games Legend you need to secure a top grade of A in every skill game so this is probably one of the hardest trophies in the game.
In total you have to get the top grade A in 64 skill games spread over 5 categories which are:
- Basics.
- Passing.
- Dribbling.
- Defending.
- Shooting.
I recommend doing skill games often and whilst going for other trophies in FIFA 19, with each A grade you earn it’s one less for the total and with all skill games at Grade A you will unlock your Trophy.
Football Minded
Score 3 headers in a Headers & Volleys Game
A headers and volleys match is a new type of kick off game that has been added to the FIFA 19 roster, in this game mode you only score goals from headers and volleys.
For the Football Minded trophy you need to score 3 headers so set the difficulty to beginner and then whilst attacking hold the ball at the edge of the box until you have a teammate in the box and cross the ball using Square then press Circle to hopefully score a header.
With 3 headers scored your Trophy will unlock.

From Rags to Riches

Choose one that is easy to complete like winning matches or buying players off the transfer market for example.

Climbing the Ladder
Achieve division 4 in FIFA Ultimate Team Rivals
The hardest trophy to earn in Ultimate Team, after playing your 5 placement matches you will receive a skill rating based on your performance, Division 4 needs you to have a skill rating of 1250.
As you reach a higher skill rating you will play people that also have a higher skill rating, winning a match will increase your skill rating around 30-35 points.
Losing will result in a skill rating loss of 30-35 points so in order to get this trophy done you need to play and win consistently.
Be aware that quitting or forfeiting matches is not advised as this will result in you losing more skill rating points than a loss no matter how badly you lose.
Once you have the magical 1250 skill rating your Trophy will unlock.

The best way to get this trophy is to play as many matches as possible from the start of a new competition on a Monday, through the squad battles menu you can track how many points you have scored. You can also check how close you are to gold 3 so keep playing and winning those matches and play them on higher difficulties like professional or world class to maximise points.
