eFootball 2026 Epic Italy (Cannavaro, Vieri, Del Piero) pack review

by

Hey there, fellow gamers! Exciting news from my gaming world – eFootball 2026 has dropped new packs, and the limelight is on the Epic Italy pack this time around. I’ve got three footballing legends leading the charge: Fabio Cannavaro, Christian Vieri, and Alessandro Del Piero! Can’t wait to see them in action!

As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but be drawn to this pack that seemingly boasts a team of stars on paper, thanks to their impressive skills and stats. However, the real question is: does this combination make it worth pursuing? To unravel this mystery, let’s delve deeper and examine if these Italian legends are the ideal additions to your roster.

eFootball 2026 Epic Italy Players

Fabio Cannavaro

  • Position: CB
  • Playing Style: Destroyer
  • Show Time Skill: Fortress

Cannavaro has arrived, and among all center backs currently available, he is undoubtedly the one with the most impressive statistics. It’s clear that Cannavaro is considered the top defender in eFootball on paper, and this advantage translates to outstanding defensive performance on the field as well.

Cannavaro has made his presence known, and when it comes to statistical analysis among center backs, he stands out above all others. It’s no secret that Cannavaro is widely regarded as the best defender in eFootball, and this reputation holds true both on paper and in practice on the field.

He enthusiastically dives headfirst into challenges with impeccable timing. Although he may not be the tallest, his impressive jumping ability and balance make him quite formidable in airborne encounters, though it’s worth noting that his success rate is relatively low due to taller strikers inherently having an advantage in this sport.

This player excels particularly in his speed for a center-back, a trait that allows him to match pacey forwards, fill gaps swiftly, and regain defensive positions more efficiently than many of his peers. In addition, he performs exceptionally well in physical confrontations, often coming out on top due to his ability to easily win such duels.

However, while Cannavaro excels in Speed and Acceleration – crucial aspects in this game – having only Fortress as his skill seems underwhelming to me. It’s hard not to notice a defender with Aerial Fortitude and Long-Range Tackling abilities outshining him, pushing Cannavaro down the rankings.

Alessandro Del Piero

  • Position: CF
  • Playing Style: Fox in the Box
  • Show Time Skill: Blitz Curler and Acceleration Burst

Among all these options, I’ve selected my favorite one. It boasts impressive stats on paper, making it an excellent choice for players who have a quick acceleration and are proficient at bending the ball. The next card in this set, reminiscent of Del Piero, also receives decent stat upgrades, and playing with him is truly enjoyable.

He plays incredibly intuitively, responding swiftly when moving alongside him. It seems he naturally possesses a skill akin to quick-thinking dribbling. Add that to his signature curved strikes and outstanding goal-scoring ability, and you’re dealing with one of the most technically skilled forwards in the game.

What makes him unique is his adaptability; he’s capable of excelling in various roles, demonstrates good playmaking skills, connects well with midfielders, has impressive dribbling abilities and can score using either foot. However, his physical strength could use improvement as he tends to lose the ball under pressure.

Christian Vieri

  • Position: CF
  • Playing Style: Goal Poacher
  • Show Time Skill: Phenomenal Finishing and Blitz Curler

You might have come across a card that’s been going viral, claiming this striker is the best or at least among the Top 3. Well, I thought I’d share my thoughts. The legend himself, Vieri , is back in action and this time around, he feels like an incredible powerhouse striker with two exceptional abilities for a forward: Excellent Finishing and Thunderous Curler.

Through an analysis of the statistics, it’s evident that this player excels in areas such as power, agility, and potent finishing. On the field, he indeed demonstrates these attributes effectively. However, when controlling the ball, there seems to be a slight awkwardness; perhaps his height is a factor influencing this aspect of his performance.

This card struggles with delivering powerful finishes using both feet and maximizing the potential of the Blitz Curler technique. The curling ability in this card is not particularly strong; while a mid-80s rating is decent, the full kicking force seems to be lacking somehow.

It seems you have the ability to tweak the stats, however, it appears there isn’t much scope for significant improvement; all values are close to 90s, and minor stat adjustments could create an untidy distribution. Hence, this card showcases a clever design by KONAMI, powerful indeed, yet perfectly embodying what a formidable striker might resemble.

Verdict on the eFootball 2026 Epic Italy players

All in all, this group is quite powerful, but it’s not perfect due to some missing components. It still needs improvement before it can truly shine, especially with the necessary ‘Show Time’ skill being absent. For now, let’s embark on a journey to save on resources.

Del Piero undoubtedly ranks among the top-tier striker-midfield hybrid players, following in Pelé’s footsteps, and with the right play, he proves to be a powerful asset. Cannavaro is known as one of the best defensive players on the ground, but I suspect that an Aerial Fort Striker skill could have significantly improved his performance.

Pack Rating: 4 out of 5
