Short answer for : it depends on what your PC already has. The machine that displays the desktop always has some display adapter — either a discrete card or an integrated GPU — and FIFA 09 needs basic 3D support (DirectX/Pixel Shader). Replies from and point in the right direction; below are practical checks and steps to try before buying anything.

First, identify what your system actually provides. Run the DirectX Diagnostic Tool (Win+R, dxdiag) and look at the Display tab for the adapter name, driver, feature levels and DirectX version. In Device Manager check Display adapters for the exact model. If the adapter lists only “Microsoft Basic Display Adapter” or lacks Shader/DirectX support, performance will be very poor. Update the vendor drivers (Intel/AMD/NVIDIA) and install the DirectX runtime the game needs. Next, try the game with the lowest resolution and all quality options turned off (or edit the FIFA config file in your Documents/EA folder if present), close background programs, and run the game in windowed mode — this often turns a non-playable frame rate into something usable.

If integrated graphics still struggle, consider a low-cost discrete card that fits the motherboard (PCIe x16) and power limits of the PSU. Prefer cards that do not require extra power connectors for simple older games. As an alternative to hardware upgrades, streaming/remote-play from a more powerful PC or a cloud-gaming service can run older titles without new hardware, but check whether the service supports the specific game.

hmm, you mean just run it and not play it right?

cause there is no way you can get the display without a 'graphics card'.

Maybe you are trying to ask how to play the game on the built-in GPU (Graphics Processing Unit or 'Graphics Card'). Well maybe you can set the Graphics settings to extremely low, it may work out for you but you won't wanna play it like that,

Your best bet is to get a good Graphics Card that will set you back at least 300$. Don't go for the 50~100 $ stuff they don't last too long.

Hope I helped.

Nowadays graphics cards are comes within your motherboard. You need to purchase the card to run these games and DirectX should also be tested.

The graphic cards are necessary for your Computer especially when you play any
heavy games like FIFA. NIVIDIA Display adaptors are preferred once,so I would
recommend you to go for it, or you can use other graphic cards.
If you try to play such games in your computer without Graphic Cards,then your
Computer might slow down or hang and later it can cause problems.
