How to unlock the Comeback Kid achievement in FIFA 12 - Definitive Guide

This solution uses Game Settings to make unlocking this achievement easily. Please do not down-vote if you're a FIFA purist and insists that "everything must be done legit".

This is an extremely easy achievement if you abuse the Game Settings prior to starting the game. Pick any team you want to control and play against. Do the usual and go into the match menu.

Once inside, select "Game Settings". Scroll LT/RT until you reach the part that says "CPU Settings". Here, you'd find all the settings (in the form of sliders) that the CPU would be using against you. "Slide" all the useful settings (e.g., passing, shooting, sprint, acceleration, etc.) to ZERO, and set all the not so useful ones (e.g., GK error, pass error, etc.) to 100.

NOTE: If you want, scroll LT/RT to "User Settings" and slide everything to your favor. That's not really necessary though.

Difficulty does not matter for this achievement.

Now, this requires you to come back from a 3-goal deficit to win a game. The achievement description is a bit fuzzy, sounding as if you need to lose 3 goals in the second half before winning. This in untrue. You can go 3-0 down in the first half by scoring three own goals, and then let the first half and 3-0 to your opponents. From the second half, start banging in the goals against the weakened-by-sliders opponents. You should score tons of goals even on a 4-minute half timer.

If you want, set the difficulty to "Legendary" before the game to unlock this achievement:

Just want to confirm going down 3 in the first half, then getting 4+ in the second half works. Own goals are easiest by passing to your goalie, then sprinting into the net (in case you didn't know!).

...and if you tie it and wait till the 90th minute to score the gw goal, you will get the secret achv as well.

Sliders effects do not work in UT.

This works even when you're down with more goals then 3, because I went 0-4 down in the first half and when I won the game the achievement still popped.

If you make a friendly match against CPU, you can score your 4+ goals on the second half or at the overtime. ;)

You can get this at the same time as 10 vs 11. In kick-off, set up a 4 minute half game on amateur, and use a strict referee. Then in the match, score 3 own goals (put the ball in your net) in the first half and get someone sent off whilst you are losing or drawing. Then win 4-3 in the second half.

You'll want to do this one along with 10 vs 11. Change the settings for your team only like you did for Legendary, and set the time on long enough to make sure you can get a red card. Start the match and make sure you get a red card. When you get it, make 3 own goals and let the 1st half finish. Then, in the second half, score at least 4 goals and win the game.

can be obtained in a quick exhibition match. We drain the first half and go to the locker room with 0:3. We win the second half. a victory in extra time (if the score is 3:3 after the end of regular time) also counts.

you can very easily waste the first half by simply passing the ball to the goalkeeper and running it into your own goal

We do this:

  • Set it to easy difficulty level.
  • Choosing a team
  • We concede 3 goals in the first half (you can score auto goals no matter what)
  • We score 4 or more goals in the second half
  • We win and the achievement is yours!!
