Antony has garnered a pretty poor reputation since joining Manchester United as a man with a lot of fancy tricks but not so much end product. But since FC 25 players love fancy tricks, being able to replicate his infamous Antony spin in your own matches is a blast, and a great way to style on your opponents.

So if you’re looking to imitate the great man and start pulling off your own Antony spins in your matches, you’ve come to the right place. We’ve put together a quick guide to tell you what star skill moves you need, and what the inputs are to perform it – let’s get into it.

Doing the Antony spin in FC 25

First things first, you’re going to need a player with 5-star skills, like Antony himself. Additionally, the Antony spin is unique in that it’s not a skill that you can perform with the ball at your feet. Instead, it can only be done when a player with 5-star skills is receiving a grounded pass. 

So, with all that in mind, here’s how you perform the Antony spin. Play a grounded pass with X (PlayStation) or A (Xbox) to a player with 5-star skills. As the player prepares to receive the ball, press L1 + R1 (PlayStation) or LB + RB (Xbox) at the same time. When your player receives the ball, they’ll collect it and perform a little spin.

Unlike a lot of skills in FC 25 like ball rolls and rainbow flicks, there’s not actually a lot of use to the Antony spin – it pretty much only exists to showboat. But if you’re playing against your mates or just want to show off against your opponents in online matches, then there aren’t many skill moves that are going to rile someone up quite like the pointless yet flashy Antony spin.
