FIFA 19 MOTM Orange Cards
What is the Man of the Match?
The Man of the Match cards were created in FUT 12 to reward the best players of matches not covered by the TOTW cards. It is the case of the UEFA club competitions final stages, domestic cups finals and International National Teams finals.
The first time ever these cards were released was in Euro 2012 matches. In that time they were purple, but in the FIFA World Cup 2014 they have been replaced by green ones. These cards were assigned to the most in form players of important international competitions, like World Cup, Copa America or European Championship.
There are two types of MOTM cards: dMOTM, domestic man of the match cards, used for domestic cups played by clubs; and cMOTM, continental man of the match, used for continental tournaments played by clubs. This year, the cMOTM items are split into Champions League MOTM cards and Europa League MOTM cards, depending on the competition where the player stood out.
An orange card is assigned to the best players of these matches, selected by EA Sports. They usuall become available in packs for seven days. During this period, the FIFA 19 MOTM orange cards replace the corresponding regular cards. In other words, in the day a player gets his MOTM cards in packs, it is impossible to find his regular card there. Your odds of pulling a MOTM card from a pack are exactly the same of pulling the regular card of that player in another day.
If you own the regular card of a player elected MOTM, your card will be kept unchanged. If you want the improved version, you will need to buy the corresponding MOTM version in the market or pull it from a pack in that day.
Release Date
When FIFA 19 MOTM Orange Cards will be available?
The FIFA 19 domestic MOTM cards don’t have any periodicity. Usually they are released between March and July, because it is when the tournaments are coming to the end or when domestic Cup finals take place, with predominance for Fridays. The Champions and Europa League items are released during the competition.
Each MOTM card is usually released at midnight (UK time). Only one MOTM item is assigned for each match.
You can have the regular card and the MOTM card of the same player in your club. However, you cannot use them both in your squad at the same time.
Ratings and Stats
How big are the ratings and stats boosts of these cards?
The ratings and attributes of FUT 19 MOTM cards are usually boosted in one or two points, compared with their last TOTW/Special card or, if it doesn’t exist, their regular cards.
The position of the players in these cards may change if, in that match, they played really well in a different position.
If they have been assigned in different games, a player can have more than one MOTM card. These cards differ from each other only in the ratings and attributes (eventually in the position too). The more recent is the card, the higher is its rating.
