I fixed it for me. You can not change your quad before starting a match like Pupusatero said. Once you enter any settings menu the players you see in the background when choosing kits disappear and you will not be able to start a match. You can't even go back and change kits, the two players won't appear again either. Hope EA will see and fix this soon.

Try to change the settings for the DIRECTX! I use a gtx 1070 and after I've changed to DX 11, it works fine!

Yes it only happens when you choose to download latest squad but default works for some reason maybe the new presentation package is broken

I would like to report a very similar glitch. Firstly, the one stated originally happened to me. However, after restarting I found a new glitch, which is where I can get to the mini game before the match begins, however the match then never loads.
Please fix this, as my CM is currently unplayable.

3 teams- happened in all 3 saves. Played multiple games first but happens in last two weeks of August every time. I'm on play station and get the CE 34878-0 error. I think this is the second or third straight year this has happened. Any chance this will be adressed in the first pitch.

I'm glad I'm not the only one to notice that too. EA has got to fix this on launch day!

I just tested this on my save, and no, it doesn't matter who I have set as quick subs or the starting XI. Still crashes if you go into team sheet.

Has EA addressed this issue at all? It is a week after launch and there has been a patch and this issue is still occurring. If EA is not going to address a fix I will be requesting a refund or having my card charge the game back.
