Nedved, Ginola, and Bergkamp leaked as Ragnarok Event Icons in EA FC Mobile
The latest major reveal comes from well-known leaker @madridistaa, who shared a leaked image, reportedly from the in-game background of the event's Mighty Winter phase.
The image features three footballing greats, namely Pavel Nedved, David Ginola, and Dennis Bergkamp, all of whom are existing Icons in FC Mobile.
Their appearance strongly hints that each of them will receive featured cards in the event, possibly with upgraded OVRs and exclusive PlayStyles.
EA Sports
officially teases first three Ragnarok Mighty Winter Icon cards; leaks hinted at multiple Icon variants
Adding to the hype, EA Sports has officially teased the first three Mighty Winter Icon cards for Ragnarok via an official X post.
They are an 111 OVR Right Back (Brazil), an 111 OVR Central Attacking Midfielder (England,) and an 111 OVR Left Winger (England.)
Here's what could be the expected items as per the given hints:
111 OVR Brazilian RB – Speculation points to either Cafu or Carlos Alberto Torres, two legendary defenders with elite status in both real-world and EA FC (formerly FIFA) Ultimate Team history.
111 OVR English CAM – Fans believe this might be none other than Sir Bobby Charlton, a World Cup winner and Manchester United legend.
111 OVR English LW – Widely expected to be George Best, the Northern Irish magician and one of football's most charismatic talents.
While EA has yet to confirm these names officially, the positions and OVRs line up with these Icons' past cards and real-world reputations. If accurate, this would mark the first wave of premium Ragnarok Icons to join the game.
As revealed in prior leaks, Ragnarok will likely feature two types of Mighty Winter icons, including the Mighty Winter Icon and Mighty Winter Premium Icon. This opens the door for multiple versions of the same legend, possibly with stat boosts, unique abilities, or exclusive artwork that ties into the Norse mythology theme.

Mission (im) possible: KL Rahul, Shubman Gill battle hard to give India a chance to save fourth Test
A few days back, Indian captain Shubman Gill was asked about the one thing about the new job that surprised him. He would smile and say that he doesn't get tired much as he mostly fields around the pitch but he does get mentally drained at the end of the day. So, after leading his deflated side for 157.1 overs, handling a bowling unit not sticking to plans and battling thoughts of a hard-fought series slipping, Shubman would have been mentally knackered at the end of the England innings. And just as he would have put his leg up in the dressing room, he had to rush back on to the field. The score was 0/2, Chris Woakes was on a hat-trick, opener Yashasvi Jaiswal and No.3 Sai Sudharsan were back in the hut. After the worst couple of days of his captaincy, Gill was facing the toughest as skipper. It helped he had with him the calmest mind who was playing the tightest cricket on the tour, KL Rahul. In a partnership of epic proportions, Shubman and Rahul compiled an unbeaten 174, also India's total at stumps to revive a Test that looked lost and a series that seemed over. 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝟒: 𝐃𝐲𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐜 𝐃𝐮𝐨 🤜🤛#KLRahul (87* off 210) and #ShubmanGill (78* off 167) stood strong on Day 4, digging India out of early trouble with a composed and crucial partnership under pressure 🔥 Catch the HIGHLIGHTS of Day 4 ➡ 👉… — Star Sports (@StarSportsIndia) July 26, 2025 Trailing by 311 runs and 0/2, the Test seemed irredeemable. Most teams would have given up, most captains would have thrown in the towel but not this one. After playing for two full sessions, facing 317 balls, Shubman (87) and Rahul (78) had given hope when all seemed lost. This is shaping into a partnership that can be compared to the Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman partnership of 2001. In case India can stick around for one more day, this could go down as a Test recovery for ages. There are just two possible results – 'the more likely' England win and after the solid Rahul-Shubman show, the 'not quite impossible' India draw. India has ensured this remains an unputdownable series. Rains are expected on the final day of the Test but so will be an overcast sky. There have been no easy days on this tour and they come with the promise of exciting cricket. Rahul with his methodical play and Test match technique could be expected to play controlled cricket but Shubman's inning came as a refreshing surprise for its sheer tenacity – a rare virtue in Indian cricket. After spending every ounce of his energy trying to figure out ways to get the English batsmen out for the team, Shubman now with a bat in hand had to fight an individual battle. In the last three innings – twice at Lord's and in the first innings here – he has gotten out trying to dead-bat or leave the balls coming into him. At Lord's he was caught behind while negotiating the ball in the corridor by Chris Woakes, and in the next inning he was hit on the knee roll by Brydon Carse and was out lbw. Here Stokes had bowled the same line and length, Shubman had shouldered arms to a ball that DRS showed was hitting his stumps. This has been an old Shubman problem and England has been repeatedly exploiting it. Woakes and Jofra Archer both would test the Indian captain with good length balls on the off-stump with a few surprise yorkers thrown in for variety. Shubman would be tentative initially – not sure to take the stride forward to meet the ball or leave it. This must have been the most harrowing time for the Indian dressing room. A ball a millimeter close or the bat a shade closer would result in an edge flying behind the stumps. That was how close India was from losing a series. KL 🤝 GILL A batting masterclass from @klrahul & @ShubmanGill bails #TeamIndia out of early trouble! 💪 The highest 3rd-wicket partnership of the series! 🙌🏻#ENGvIND 👉 4th TEST, DAY 4 | LIVE NOW on JioHotstar 👉 — Star Sports (@StarSportsIndia) July 26, 2025 From both the ends, England would attack Shubman with a barrage of nipbackers. Woakes with the talent of moving the ball in the air and Jofra Archer with the ability to make the ball come in sharply seemed close to wickets and were difficult to deal with. An early end to the game, an innings defeat to India on Day 4 was the most predicted outcome of this Test. In Jofra's second over, there were a couple of big appeals. First a Jofra late swinger would hit Gill on his boot, once again not sure about the stride forward. The skipper would survive as even technology was inconclusive. In the same over there was another appeal, once again Shubman was beaten on the front foot, since the ball was moving in too sharply they would avoid taking the DRS. It was in this crunch situation, while handling a personal and team crisis, that Shubman found a way to reset his batting technique, got hold of some spanner to tighten a few screws and grease some joints. Almost miraculously, he looked like a different batsman. There was the smooth transfer of weight and there was surety in his stride. This was a man refusing to give in, and a batsman who when troubled, not panicking but delving deep in the recesses of the mind to find a way to survive. He also was playing much straighter now. There were a couple of straight drives – one off Woakes and the other off Brydon Carse – that went racing to the sight screen from both sides of the stumps. On the second one, the graceful stroke-maker held his pose. This was a signal that he had dealt with that tough period of play. When on 48, luck too smiled on the brave captain. In a minor glitch in concentration, the India No.4 would try to over-reach for a Carse ball in the channel. He would edge to Liam Dawson at point, the ball would hit his hand but he couldn't catch it. 'Every batsman, at some stage of their life, changes the way they bat in Test cricket. Subman seems to be doing that brilliantly in England,' India's batting coach Sitanshu Kotak said. While Shubman was dealing with his demons, Rahul was a picture of composure. He was playing close to the body, meeting the ball late and moving away from the short balls. After the outside the off-stump bowling didn't give results, Stokes moved his troops on the other side of the field. For most of the final session, England bowled short balls on the body and placed four fielders square and behind the wicket. Rahul negated the ploy solidly. He wouldn't go for the pull but would bring the ball down. Now it was Stokes' turn to get frustrated. Before the Ashes, Rahul and Shubman gave a masterclass to the team that always plays for results, on the art and skill to play out a riveting draw.

Tanishk Bagchi on Saiyaara success and lack of credit for composers: 'No name on poster when it is promoted...'
Tanishk Bagchi, the composer behind Saiyaara's success, highlights the struggle for recognition faced by music creators in Bollywood. He acknowledges his father's unfulfilled musical aspirations as a driving force. Bagchi praises director Mohit Suri for supporting composers but expresses disappointment with production houses for overlooking their contributions after a song's success. As Saiyaara continues its dream run at the box office, music composer Tanishk Bagchi is riding high on the film's success. But behind the chartbusters and accolades lies a story of grit, passion, and a long fight for recognition. The composer—whose work has played a vital role in the film's emotional depth—recently opened up about his journey, the legacy of his father, and the industry's persistent failure to credit music creators. The Credit Gap in the Industry In a recent interview with BollywoodShaadis, Tanishk opened up about his deep connection with music, calling every form—be it bhajan, kirtan, or film songs—a form of art. He shared that music is his passion, and whether it's recreating classics or composing originals, he puts his heart into it. However, he also voiced a long-standing frustration faced by many composers like himself and his father: the lack of proper credit. Tanishk pointed out that while songs like Saiyaara become hits and his name is associated with them, people rarely acknowledge the years of hard work behind the scenes. Instead, the spotlight often goes to actors, directors, and promoters who are more socially visible. Carrying Forward His Father's Legacy The composer reflected on his journey and paid tribute to his father, a talented musician who faced many struggles and couldn't achieve the recognition he deserved. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Villas in Dubai | Search Ads Get Info Undo Tanishk shared that he sees his own success as a continuation of his father's legacy, humbly stating that he's not a big music director, but someone carrying forward his parents' musical gifts. He praised director Mohit Suri for actively promoting composers and supporting their work. However, he expressed disappointment with production houses, stating that once they buy the music and it becomes a hit, they quickly move on to the next project without acknowledging the creators. Tanishk also pointed out how composers are often left out of promotional materials, including film posters and social media. 'I make a song and don't go beating the drums saying I have done it,' he said, highlighting how the hard work of music directors often goes unnoticed in the glamor of film promotions. Recognition Often Comes Too Late Bagchi further opened up about the emotional weight behind his musical journey, admitting that despite putting in immense hard work, recognition often remains elusive for composers like him. He finds it rare when a music director is properly credited and feels strongly that his creative energy comes from his parents, especially his father, whose unfulfilled musical dreams fuel his own drive. He recalled a pivotal moment in his life back in Kolkata, when he first realised that music was his true calling. That decision, he shared, became the defining turning point of his career. From that day onward, he committed to pursuing music with full responsibility, determined to rise on his own without relying on anyone else. For Tanishk, it wasn't just about sacrifice—it was about persistence and holding on, no matter how tough the path.
