eFootball 2026 Epic and Show Time Aggressive Centring A pack review

by

The latest update to eFootball 2026 introduces a new Manager who favors a passing and attacking style of play, similar to the ‘Aggressive Centring A’ tactic. There are also plenty of new collectible cards available, including powerful Epic cards featuring players like Jan Koller and David Beckham, plus a couple of new Show Time cards.

Okay, so this card pack definitely seems built for crossing strategies, but I was really curious to see if it actually delivers. Let me share my thoughts and give you my overall verdict on whether it’s worth it.

eFootball 2026 Epic and Show Time Aggressive Centring A players

David Beckham

  • Position: RMF
  • Playing Style: Cross Specialist
  • Showtime Skill: Edged Crossing and Visionary Pass

You instantly recognize the quality of a Beckham card – that incredibly precise passing that encourages you to constantly send in crosses. This particular card, the Cross Specialist version, delivers exceptionally accurate crosses.

I focused on using him out wide, and the combination of Edged Crossing and Visionary Pass is really effective. He consistently delivers accurate crosses into the box, making him perfect for playing with tall strikers. Plus, this card is very versatile and allows for a lot of customization when building your team.

I’d like the automatically generated build to prioritize both Speed and Acceleration, aiming for scores over 90. This will allow for quick bursts past defenders and better scoring opportunities. I also improved his dribbling by adding the Double Touch and Chop Turn skills, which really suit the card’s style.

Jan Koller

  • Position: CF
  • Playing Style: Fox In The Box
  • Showtime Skill: Phenomenal Finishing and Bullet Header

I’ve always been honest about cards that only do one thing well in the game. Koller is a fantastic striker, no doubt, but he really only does one thing. The question is, how well does he do that one thing? And honestly, he’s pretty great at it. It’s simple, but effective!

Koller is a powerful and dominant striker who excels in the air and uses his physicality to overwhelm opponents. He creates disruption simply by being on the field, as defenders struggle to contain him, and his close-range play is exactly what you’d expect from a large, imposing center forward.

While playing on the ground is good, it felt a little awkward trying to create opportunities that way. Everything improved once crosses started coming in – he consistently turns them into chances, and that’s what really makes this player stand out.

Pedro Neto

  • Position: LMF
  • Playing Style: Cross Specialist
  • Showtime Skill: Edged Crossing and Acceleration Burst

Pedro Neto has been a pleasant surprise. I anticipated a player who primarily dribbled wide, but he appears much more refined. He carries the ball quickly, cleanly, and with excellent control. His quick burst of acceleration is a valuable asset.

His ability to consistently deliver accurate crosses really stood out. Even when he wasn’t perfectly balanced, his crosses into the box were still on target. I also encouraged him to attempt more passes, which proved effective. While his willingness to track back on defense is great, it did tire him out fairly quickly. Overall, he’s a reliable and versatile player who can fill multiple roles.

Hugo Ekitike

  • Position: CF
  • Playing Style: Fox In The Box
  • Showtime Skill: Momentum Dribbling

This player isn’t ideally suited to this formation, but he’s still enjoyable to use. I particularly like strikers with Momentum Dribbling – I’ve been a big fan ever since playing with Marco van Basten. Ekitike isn’t quite as fluid as van Basten, but he’s still easy to maneuver.

When he’s not directly involved with the ball, his movement and positioning are excellent, and he consistently finishes chances, which his statistics confirm. He’s not particularly strong in the air, which is understandable, but he still finds ways to score with his feet, even when a header seems possible – I actually found that amusing.

Verdict on the eFootball 2026 Aggressive Centring A players

Alright, let’s get to the point. If you’re looking for players who can reliably make crosses and score, this pack might be worth considering. These two players are good options for a crossing-focused team, but keep in mind this is a large pack with 200 players total, so luck plays a big role. While the ‘Show Time’ picks are okay, you likely have stronger players already on your team.

Pack Rating: 3 out of 5
