Here is another approach that I use. Don't get hung up on just using spot focus. I primarily use single or zone just to get the subject I want in focus before initiating Eye AF.
For example if I'm on eye focus and the camera is picking up the wrong subject or can't find a subject I'll press AF-On that is set to single point to override eye focus. Once the body is in focus I release the AF-On and the eye snaps in. I just need to get the AF point anywhere on the body.
I can shoot 5 perched birds using eye focus and I can get anyone I want in focus in a split second.
Notice how he does this using Expansion AF. Minutes 2:30 to 6:00. 3:10 has the best example. It's a R3 vs Sony shootout but the concept is the same for all ML bodies.

It may or may not work for you but another option you may want to try.
I'm not sure that it will works on R5 and I was so upset when I found that out.
That will work on R3 and that's the reason that I have tuned my initial Servo AF spot on small center AF (AF 5 Menu) instead of all the frame. In that way I put the small af spot on the player I want and then let the camera follow him with the face detection. I also use the joystick to put this small AF spot in the center back.
What part won’t work on the R5? I had one for 2 years and posted my experience shooting that way.

Fujifilm's X-H2 is a high-resolution stills and video camera, that sits alongside the high-speed X-H2S at the pinnacle of the company's range of X-mount APS-C mirrorless cameras. We dug into what it does and what it means.
Holy Stone produces dozens of low-cost drone models aimed at consumers. We look at the HS710 and HS175D to see if they stack up to other sub-250g offerings. Are these secretly great or more like toys?
