5 important tips

Experiment with Formations

Your formation is crucial to your game play because different teams require different setups. Use 2 or more strikers when trying to score goals, and use 4 or 5 backs when defending a lead. Get used to changing your formation depending on the score of the match. It’s the difference between a Win and a Loss!

Use the Power Header

A power header can be executed by holding on to the shoot button. It is quite different and the heading requires more aiming even for assisted shooting. Power header techniques:

1. To execute a power header, press the shoot button and aim the direction stick just before the ball is about to land.
2. Observe the cross symbol on the field to gauge where the ball is going to land. This is to give you a guide on where you should aim your header with respect to the goal post.
3. Do not press the shoot button too early because in Fifa 10, if you press the shoot button too early, your player will not react to it.
4. Do not hold on to the shoot button too long. Release the shoot button just before the ball is about to land on to the player. If you play with the default TELE camera, then you know how hard it is to see your off the screen teammates. Well, I’m about to share with you one awesome passing trick that many FIFA gamers are unaware of.

Use Your Radar

Do you actually use your radar? It’s a great tool for locating WIDE OPEN players that aren’t present in your viewing screen. Great for long balls over the top.

Tough Defense Will Get You Ranked

Defense is the key in FIFA. You must improve your defense to win more games. Scoring goals is easy, but shutting out your opponents 7 games in a row is a challenge.
