Duvan Zapata

By FalcaoIsGoat, 03-04-2020

I got Zapata and Dennis in reds for my weekend league rewards so, as a Colombia fan, I was very hyped about these picks. I used him off-the-bench in my normal squad and as striker in my Seria A first owner squad. Just to let you guys know, DON'T PUT HUNTER/CATALYST ON HIM, he definately needs an engine, for the dribbling, the agility, balance, ball control, and dribbling boost makes him a much better player. His 99 strength and 6'2'' height make him impossible to push off the ball, and for someone with his height and strength, he has a nice 73 balance as well. His passing is good, even with no boost to it, he got a few nice assists, and he is very good playing as a holdup striker. But with every Zapata card has in common is insane finishing, even his 82 is super clinical. With 92 positioning, 93 finishing, and 92 shot power, he can get into good areas very well, and he can finish every chance you expect him to and more. 74 stamina isn't too concerning, as he is a true #9, so he sticks to his position very well. His long shots aren't the greatest, but, he is not a player you are going to try many long shots with. One very interesting aspect with this card is his dribbling. Honestly, his skill moves are garbage, but his actual dribbling is very nice. His long legs and good ball control/dribbling stats are good enough his quick cuts to turn a defender are deadly. His weak foot says it's 4*, but that is a lie, his left foot is just as clinical and just as powerful as his right, which is a plus. Out of all my reviews, this is the first card that I will praise in the heading category. He scored 3 goals off of corners... I only scored like 10 all season before Duvan. Overall, a great card that will be insanely underpriced. he is a nice link to Alejandro Gomez and Jeison Murillo for hybrids.

Sprint Speed, Very fast in a stright line.
Finishing, Most clinical player inside the box I have used all fifa.
Strength, 99 strength, I am not joking, he has injured 2 people in these 12 games.
Heading, Scored 3, but also won alot of headers off of goal kicks and punts.
Short Passing, Solid short passing, very complete hold up striker.
Ball Control/Tight Space Dribbling, With his strength and dribbling, when there is a huddle around the ball, Duvan will always come out with it.
Non-Meta, I love scoring with Duvan and making all those idiots with Varane and PM Ramos rage quit after a Duvan hat-trick.

Long Passing, Not great at switching the ball, or playing chipped through passes.
Acceloration/Agility, Not super quick.
Long Shots, Outside the 18 he is very inconsistent.
