EA FC is the only sports simulation game that boasts a stable and popular esports scene and the EA FC World Cup is the most coveted honor for its players. The 23-24 season being no exception, the tournament gave us some of the best matches by the best players in the world at the end of the year-long EA FC esports season.
Luna Galaxy star João “jafonso” Vasconcelos is the winner of the EA FC 24 Esports World Cup. The Portuguese player easily defeated Gabriel “Young” Freitas of Tuzzy E-Sports in the grand final after a difficult start to the tournament. After a group stage loss, jafonso dominated the entire tournament, especially in the finals beating Young with a 6-2 score line.
Jafonso received a $300,000 share of the $1 million prize pool as a result of his winning streak. Having shown his prowess throughout the course of the year, his dominance elevated to a whole new level as the biggest tournament of the year approached. While the group stage loss had fans worried about his performance, the rest of the tournament was an exceptional display of skill by the Portuguese.
As we approach the launch of EA FC 25, the new game will bring a ton of new metas, and tactics and will be a part of the evolution of the series. Jafonso will walk into the new season with his head held high while everyone else will look to take his crown for themselves, as things stand, we are all set for another exciting season of EA FC.
