The Play 1 objective is part of the introductory set of challenges in FC 25 Ultimate Team, typically found under the "Foundations" or "Getting Started" tab. This task is as beginner-friendly as FIFA 25 Coins it gets:

Objective:

    Play one match in any Ultimate Team game mode.

That's it. No need to win the match or meet any special conditions—just enter a game and finish it. Whether you're playing Squad Battles, Rivals, Champions, or even a friendly, it all counts. EA Sports designed this task to help new players feel a sense of progression right away.

Reward:

    Upon completion of this simple task, you'll receive a 10-game loan version of Gianfranco Zola, one of the Immortals players available early in FC 25.

For those who might not know, Zola is a legendary forward with excellent agility, ball control, and finesse. His Immortals card features boosted stats and is perfect for giving your early squad a much-needed edge—especially in modes like Rivals or Champions where competition is fierce.

Having access to a high-tier attacker like Zola for ten matches can make a real difference, especially as you begin earning EAFC 25 Coins and scouting for better squad options.
