TACTICAL FREE KICKS
You can now call a second and third kick taker during a free kick. Each kick taker can pass,
shoot, or run over the ball. Utilize dummy runs and lay off passes to create dangerous and
unpredictable free kicks. Opponents can counter by adding or subtracting players to the wall,
creeping the wall forward, or sending a bullet man to intercept the pass or block the shot. For
free kicks that are farther away, you also have the ability to call a second player to come short
by pressing the W button.
NEW
LATERAL CONTAIN
You now have more freedom and lateral mobility while containing an opponent. Use Contain
to place your defender in front of the opposing team’s attacker by holding the S button. Move
your defender left or right while containing in order to shepherd an opponent to less dangerous
areas of the field or onto his weaker foot.
NEW
SEAL OUTS
While defending, you now have the ability to dispossess an opponent by using your defender’s
body to win back possession of the ball. With good anticipation, you can use your defender’s
size and strength to seal out an opponent who attempts to dribble past him. In situations where
there is separation between the dribbler and the ball, press the A button to launch a Seal Out
and use your player’s body to step in front of your opponent.
