EA SPORTS have added the final Road to the Final (RTTF) team to FIFA 21 after the conclusion of the Champions League group stage — here’s everything we know about Team 3 including the players, and more.
FIFA 21 has seen EA SPORTS go hard on the RTTF promo. The first team was loaded with superstars — soon-to-be-upgraded cards like Salah and Griezmann among them — and the stacked second squad, headlined by Hazard and Koulibaly, arrived a week later.
EA have now added one last Road to the Final lineup, after the Champions League’s 2020/21 group stage came to a thrilling end late last week.
“With the biggest competitions in Europe’s Group Stages coming to an end, a third squad of Road to the Final dynamic Special Player Items will be coming to Ultimate Team,” the FIFA 21 devs confirmed on EA.com.
Here’s everything we know about the third — and more than likely last — Road to the Final promo squad to drop in FIFA 21, including when it will hit live servers, which players have brand-new RTTF cards, and more.
When will “Road to the Final 3” be released?
The third RTTF squad was indeed tied to the Round of 16 draw. That all-important seeding event was hosted at UEFA’s headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, on Monday, Dec. 14.
That put RTTF 3’s release date at 6 PM GMT as per usual on Friday, December 18.
The full squad is now out, and you can see it below:

FIFA 21 RTTF SBC cards
EA SPORTS hasn’t unveiled any plans for RTTF team 3 squad-building challenges yet, but considering there were a few for the first squads — Mason Mount, Isco, and Jules Kounde all got SBC cards — it’s likely they’ll do the same for this squad soon.
These will likely be based around Europa League teams, including Ajax, United, Milan, Rangers, and more. PSV, Napoli, and Leicester are also in with a shout. When new SBCs are announced, we’ll update this article.
So there you have it — everything we know about Road to the Final team 3, now live in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team. Make sure you’ve got a few packs saved too; it’s going to be a cracking Champions League squad!
