I'm the first to admit that I really lack talent in any game I play, and the rules of football are not my forte - I really don't know a through ball from a one-two pass, so I need help. I'm playing on 'Professional' level and I'm having difficulty figuring out how to avoid tackles when I'm entering the opponent's box. So far all I'm doing is running at the goal fast and hoping for the best, but 9 times out of ten a full back tackles me. It's getting a bit frustrating. I've tried stopping, reversing direction and just kicking from farther out. I've also tried crossing the ball from the wings, but mostly that fails too. Are there any moves I can use when running that will have more success?
Also, can anyone explain what the following mean and what they do in the game:
Through ball?
Trigger run?
One-two pass?
Early cross?
Walk defence?
Finally, when I'm approaching goal and I shoot, where am I supposed to aim? Is it like the penalty kicks, so that you aim top right on your gamepad stick to get in the top right of the net, or do you aim as you run - i.e. in the general direction of where the goal is? I've been doing the latter, but where the ball actually goes seems to be fairly random.
I really wish sports games came with a manual for completely clueless non-sports-orientated geeks like me. It sometimes makes me wish I hadn't been turned off soccer at an early age because of my dad's obsession with it.
