Sliding tackles allow you to reach longer distances when tackling, but poorly timed attempts can result in serious fouls and even red cards. - Player Switching

- Cross the ball from the wings into the box (5)
- Pass the ball to a player inside the opponent’s box (5)
- Through Passes
Use through passes to lead teammates into open spaces and break defensive lines, but offside will be called if the pass receiver is closer to the goal than both the last defender and the ball at the time of the pass. - Lob Passes
Use lob passes to reach distant players while minimizing the risk of interception. - Crosses
Crosses are a crucial part of the game for creating scoring opporunities from the wider parts of the field. - Lobbed Through Passes
Lobbed Through Passes allow you to lead teammates behind defensive lines with air balls, minimizing the risk of interception. - Corner Kicks
When delivering corner kicks, try to place the ball in a position where your players are more likely to win the ball. - Long Free Kicks
When a free kick takes place at an unfavourable angle or long distance from the goal, delivering the ball to your teammates can be the best option. - Goalkeeper Delivery
Building out from the goalkeeper starts with good delivery, either by throwing or kicking the ball to an outfield player. - Pass-and-Go
Passing the ball and immediately making a run is a great way to beat defenders. - Precision Pass
Use precision pass when you see an opportunity to exploit a specific area of open space rather than passing directly to a player.
Attacking
Practice creating attacking opportunities and putting the ball in the back of the net.
Objectives (4)
- Shoot and score a goal (3)
- Take a shot using a header or volley (5)
- Trigger a run (5)
- Shield the ball to protect it from opponents (5)
- Headers & Volleys
When the ball is in the air, your player will perform a header or volley based on the situation, but you can also force a header if desired. - Short Free Kicks
Finding the right combination of spin and power is essential to getting free kicks around the wall, away from the goalkeeper, and into the net. - Penalty Kicks
Time your shots and aim well to achieve the accuracy necessary for a successful penalty kick. - Finesse Shots
Finesse shots are used to bend the ball around the goalkeeper, at the expense of losing some power. - Power Shots
Power shots are delivered at high velocity, but take longer to execute. Make sure you have enough space to pull it off. - Chip Shots
Chip shots have a high arc and are great for getting the ball over a charging goalkeeper, but require control with your power. - Trivela Shots
Like finesse shots, shooting with the outside of the foot will bend the ball’s trajectory to get it around the goalkeeper. - Directed Runs
Directed runs let you quickly tell a nearby teammate to move to a desired location. - Player Locking
By controlling players other than the ball carrier, you can gain a greater precision of player movement around the field.

- Jockeying
Jockeying when you defend means you’ll stay facing the ball, making it easier to win a tackle or block your opponent’s path. - Clearance
When defending near your goal, you may want to simply clear the ball to get it out of harm’s way. - Secondary Contain
Secondary contain will send your teammates to press the ball, but will leave openings in your defence. - Goalkeeper Charge
