How to unlock the National Pride achievement in FIFA 12 - Definitive Guide

Each time you defeat a nation, you are awarded 1 player from that nation. In order to get this achievement, you will need to defeat 1 nation up to 10 times, save the awarded player, and eventually use him in your starting 11. The best way to do this is as follows:

Start up Expedition and choose your Be a Pro character. When you get your random team, try to get at least 2 players from the same nation. Once you have your team set, back out of the DLC and edit the nationality of your Be a Pro character so that it matches the others. At this point, you will have at least 3 players from 1 nation and you will have to play to get the rest. First, let's make it easy. Start Expedition and adjust your game settings to the following:

Half Length: 4 minutes
Difficulty: Amateur
Injuries: Off
Offsides: Off
User Customization: All 100%, except Shot Error/Pass Error (0%) and Power Bar (adjust as desired - too high will make your shots sail)
CPU Customization: All 0%, except Shot Error/Pass Error (100%)
You can ignore the injury sliders, since injuries will be turned off.

If you are also going for the Collector achievement, you will have to play each nation 3 times. When you get to your chosen nation, save all of the players you are awarded. This will bring your total to 6. Play that nation 5 more times and you will have all 11 players needed. The players can be out of position, so if you get all goalies, play all goalies. With the above settings, you will have no problem getting victories. Once you have every player in your starting lineup from 1 nation, win 1 more game against any nation and the achievement will unlock.

Note: Not all nations are unlocked at the start, so if you just want to get this 1 achievement done, you will want to pick a nation that is unlocked early, in which case you may just want to settle for your Be a Pro character and just play an extra game or two.

This achievement requires you to win a match in expedition mode with 11 players from the same nation. To aquire these 11 players you're going to need to play the same side 11 times and each time keeping the player that you are rewarded with. You could just do this with the very first side you play against or like me, start expedition in the group of your favourite side and work you way up to playing them 11 times to create a similar squad to your national team. Just to point that your virtual pro can count towards this achievement if you change their nationality to the side you've chosen. Also you dont need to put the right players in the right positions, i had 3 keepers and no strikers in my squad and it still worked fine. To make this go as quick as possible change the time for each half to 4 mins and the difficulty to one which you can be certain of winning on. Another tactic could be to change the user and cpu game customisation in your favour, then play on amateur, score a few goals and then just go idle until the game finishes. This method takes the same amount of time but means you could be something else apart from playing the same team over and over again which gets boring very fast.
Note: You can play the same team consecutively and dont have to travel away and come back.

You might have to play some rounds if you want a full squad (with the right positions):

1st encounter: reserve player
2nd encounter: substitute player
3rd encounter: starting eleven player
all next encounters give you a random player from that country

The game is giving very little attackers I noticed. Hope I'm not the only one.

I ended up receiving 4AT/5MID/1DEF/1GK from Germany. It seems random to me.

As a quick note you can always change your virtual pro to the country of the team you are collecting so you only need to win 10 times. Also don't worry about positions as you can sub players out as soon as the game starts and still get the achievement.

I ended up with 6 LB's from Belgium :/

Luckily some had alternative positions - CB, CDM, LM.

I preferred to wait until I got to the best team in the group (Germany in my case) and then take 11 players from them. This way you can change the difficulty back up afterwards and you already have a much better team. Rather than taking 11 Kazakh players, which would mostly be worse than the whole German reserves. IMHO. Sufficient guide, wish I had focused on this first and I would've written it. Should note that you can play the same team consecutively, you don't have to play a team, then travel away and come back.

By winning against a nation you get the chance to trade one of your players against one of theirs. Depending on what player you choose at the start of your expedition, you will need 10 more players from the same nation or 11 players from another nation. After that, all you need to do is to win a match with all 11 players from the same nation as your starting squad. Don't worry if you don't happen to get a goalkeeper, you can have field players as goalies as well.

This achievement is obtained in Expedition mode and in order to get this, the Virtual Pro's nationality (VP) that you pick at the start of the Expedition mode will determine which country the players need to be from in order to unlock this achievement. You might be lucky and get some random players at the start of the Expedition mode, but you will need to unlock the national team during the course of the expedition mode, which your VP is from, and play them 10 times maximum. You will get a player each time you beat them and you will have to rinse and repeat until there is a full team from the same nation.

For example, my VP I picked was Steven Gerrard who is English, I didn't get any random players from the same nation. I unlocked playing against England about 6 games into the Expedition mode, however, this can be shortened depending on which group you chose your team to start off in. I just need to play England 10 times and beat them, fill my team with the 11 and then win another Expedition match, and then I shall have the achievement. Please note that it all depends on the nation your VP is from.

You need to choose a country and win matches against it until you have 11 people for the starting lineup! After that, select a starting line-up of players of the same nationality and win the next match!

After each victory over a team, you will be asked to choose a player from its country, win the same team 11 times, put all the players in the core squad, win the match and the achievement is yours
