How to do an Elastico in FIFA 23

In FIFA 23, fans can perform some of the most iconic skill moves from the soccer world with various players who have high skill move ratings. Some of the skill moves require players to have five-star skill ratings, while others can be performed by low skill rating players.

The Elastico is a five-star skill move that can be performed by only a handful of players. Ronaldinho, one of the most skillful players of all time, often used and popularized this flamboyant skill move. 

The top five-star skill rating players like Kylian Mbappe, Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar Jr., Tiago, Christopher Nkunku, and others can perform the Elastico easily in a match. This skill move is perfect to bamboozle defenders in a one-vs-one situation. The Elastico is most effective when wingers are cutting in from the flanks to enter the box or pull away for a crossing opportunity.
