Hello, I'm 껑이, a gaming blogger.
Two players I'd like to return to in FC ONLINE are Lionel Messi and Robert Lewandowski.
I chose them for their legendary goals during their time at Barcelona and the chance to relive that excitement by recreating those moments in the game.
Their outstanding performances made me a real Barcelona fan, and I still run a Barcelona squad in FC ONLINE today.
The ongoing FC Team Color Alliance event also ties into squad-based play, so I'll cover that here as well.
Let's take a closer look.
FC ONLINE: Memorable Moments from Messi and Lewandowski
In the 2017 match between Barcelona and Real Madrid, the score was tied at 2–2 when Messi received a pass from Jordi Alba in second-half stoppage time. He scored a dramatic winner to secure a 3–2 victory for Barcelona.
That was also Messi's 500th competitive goal for Barcelona.
His celebration—holding his shirt up to the stands—is still hard to forget.
Lewandowski also delivered an impressive performance in El Clásico in 2024.
He opened the scoring from a through ball in the 54th minute, then added another in the 56th minute, heading home a cross from the wing.
Barcelona went on to beat Real Madrid 4–0.
Watching these two players score decisive goals in such important matches made me love Barcelona even more.
It also made me want to recreate those moments myself in FC ONLINE.
How I Use My Barcelona Squad in FC ONLINE
Of course, these two players never played together at Barcelona.
Messi left the club in 2021, while Lewandowski joined in 2022.
In FC ONLINE, though, you can bring players from different eras together in a single squad.
I play Messi at RW to make use of his dribbling and left-footed finesse shots. Alongside him, I use Lewandowski at striker to finish chances with runs in behind and headers.
I use a 4-2-3-1 formation, always picturing Messi cutting inside to score a dramatic winner or Lewandowski finding the net with a well-timed run or header.
Of course, both players have their limitations.
I find Messi struggles a little in physical challenges, while Lewandowski can feel slightly awkward when changing direction quickly.
So I play to their strengths, with Messi handling the build-up and Lewandowski providing the finish.
I haven't recreated those memorable moments with this pairing yet, but scoring a similar goal in a ranked match would feel really rewarding.
