40 free Fifa 20 trivia questions with answers — trivia quiz, new questions added Oct 2026.
FIFA 20 arrived in September 2019 with a new street football mode, a fresh set of cover stars and the usual arguments about who deserved which rating. It was also the year one of Europe's biggest clubs vanished from the game under its real name. This quiz leans on the numbers fans still look up: the top 100 player ratings, the best goalkeepers, the fastest and strongest players, and the youngsters with the most room to grow. Around them are questions on the modes, the licences, the commentary team and how the game was received. It is written for anyone who sank a season into building a squad, and for quiz hosts who want a football gaming round. Every answer comes with a short explanation, so a wrong guess still teaches you something.
