El Matador Review
By Rhinokeeffe, 07-11-2017

I completed the prime SBC to get Luis Hernandez. It ended up costing me around 600k to complete as I had a huge amount of untradeables including informs and high rated cards I packed from 2 player packs. Looking at his stats I was so excited to try him and had extremely high expectations. In his first two games in divisions he scored 1 goal with 2 assists if I remember correctly. I was slightly disappointed with how he was playing although I knew like any player I needed to give him time. I identified his extreme dribbling and pace very early though as he is stupidly fast with and without the ball at his feet. A noticeable downside of Hernandez is his lack in his ability to keep the ball when under pressure, I know he has only 65 strength but some times it feels like he doesn't want to stay on his feet and will immediately go to ground, probably due to his low aggression of 61. Although as I continued to use him in the daily knockout tournament today he began to shine. Scoring 7 goals in 4 games two of which included shots that were in positions that could be seen as impossible to score from. It is vital that when shooting with Hernandez you avoid his left foot as much as possible without becoming predictable to your opponent, his 3* weak foot feels more like a 2* and I would recommend not even attempting to use his left anywhere from range as it will be a wasted chance. Overall I am glad I have this card as it is very fun to use, I would highly recommend this card for someone who can afford him but also that can afford a strong team around him as he needs that support. I would highly suggest you complete the SBC for his 20 match loan if you are considering getting him, so you can see if you like him as he will not be suitable for everyone. With the right player though Hernandez could be utilised and cut through defences with ease.

El matador is a monster

I made the sbc for this Mexican Striker after tried almost all my options for my club, including suarez, lacazette,mbappe, lukaku and others over used by the community and he is being a complete monster for me.I use him as a sole Striker in my team, he is incredible fast, his right foot is amazing and can score for all places,also he shots with an incredible power if need to. His pass in overall is good for a...

Worth Every Penny

This card is one of the best cards I have used in Fifa 18 so far. When you look at his card his physical looks but but it does the job very well and every other stat (besides defending) feels outstanding. If you get this card I highly recommend using finesses because they always go in.

Best icon for 1m

El Matador is simply insane.His shooting never dissapoints and his pace is sick.Has the dribbling as well..Saved me in so many games in fut champs with his amazing shooting doesn't matter if long or short range he will punish the goalkeeper.
