I hit the Gauntlet at midnight and lost the first match to a last-minute tap-in. You feel the shift — one win, and the rewards suddenly look within reach. By the third match I realized Antonio Nusa might be yours without spending a cent.
All FC 26 Festival of Football 3 Gauntlet rewards
You’re already seeing clips on X and threads on Reddit about people pulling big cards. I’ll walk you through what matters: which tasks pay off, which ones to chase first, and how the set pieces stack.
The Gauntlet is a pressure cooker. These rewards are a ladder out of budget squads.
How to get all FC 26 Festival of Football 3 Gauntlet rewards
On streams and in squad-building threads the same questions pop up — how many matches, which objectives. You only need any eight of the listed tasks to finish the set and claim the Antonio Nusa Phenoms item. I recommend pacing objectives across several short sessions so you don’t burn out mid-round.

How do I complete the Festival of Football 3 Gauntlet?
Start with low-friction objectives: score in single matches and string together wins inside a round. I advise using hybrid squads from FUTBIN or checking meta builds on YouTube and Twitch streamers who play EA Sports FC — they’ll show formations that make scoring simpler. Rotate goal-scoring tasks with win-based ones so you don’t stall on a single objective.
What rewards come from the Festival of Football 3 Gauntlet?
Complete eight tasks and the set pays out a 95-rated Antonio Nusa Phenoms item plus a stack of packs and an Evolution item. For free-to-play players this card is significant; for traders, those 86–90+ players can be flipped on the transfer market if you track prices with FUTBIN or FUTWIZ. Community chatter on X suggests the market spikes the day of release, so timing matters.
If you’re chasing efficiency, prioritize the tasks that give high-rated player packs and the Evolution so you can stack upgrade routes without opening your wallet. Use short sessions, watch a couple of creator guides, and split objectives across rounds to keep momentum.
You’ve seen the table, the strategy, and the platforms to watch — are you going to grind the Gauntlet now or watch the market react and chase trades instead?
