Fifa 11 online head to head gameplay tips

With many more people playing Fifa 11 this year, there is also going to be much more rookies just starting out and learning how to play and win games while playing online. Since many people play Fifa 11 online so that they can compete against other online gamers this post is going to talk about some quick and easy offensive attacking tips on how to efficiently pass, score goals, and win in online head to head matches. Please keep in mind that I play Fifa 11 on the Xbox 930 I might reference some of the Xbox 360 controls. Although these tips and strategies are not guaranteed to win every game they will definitely improve your skills and give you chances to score goals and win matches.

            Starting with how to pick your team. Most of the time I play a head to head match online my opponent usually chooses the usual Real Madrid, Barcelona, Man U, Brazil. When you play someone that chooses these teams you should also select a high caliber team so that your players can stack up against your opponents, there are plenty of other teams that can easily match up and win against these giants.

            Secondly, once in the game passing is key, unless you are amazing at Fifa already you simply cannot just pass the ball to a single player and have him run it down the field and score goals. When it comes to passing, there are 4 basic types: through ball, ground pass, lobbed pass, and the cross. When playing online you will be using the first two the most, while utilizing the cross and lobbed passes for certain situations. The lobbed pass is mainly for switching field position and the cross is used when you are in the crossing zone and you have a mismatch in the box that favors your player. As for ground and through balls these are key. You use the ground passes to set up the through passes. The through passes are what get the great breakaways and easy goals. The first tip that I would like to present is the “send teammate on a run” button, which is the left bumper (Lb) button on the Xbox 360 controller. What this does is while you have the ball with a player you can send players being controlled by the computer to move up field to create passing opportunities and holes in the defense. Another tip to use while also using the Lb button is the one-two pass which is amazing for head to head matches. Once you possess the ball if you hold down the Lb button and pass to a close teammate once that player passes the ball they will immediately make a run into open space, which creates a great time to use the through ball using the (Y) button. This is probably the easiest and most efficient tactic to get easy chances on goal. Once you become more advanced the next pass is the lobbed through ball which is very effective when used properly.

            The last thing for this post is THE SPRINT button. Most people as soon as they get the ball they hold onto the spring button to try and run by everyone. This is just not possible you have to use patience, so unless there is no one close to you or you know you can outrun the defender then just jog because your player will have better control of the ball and lose it less often.

            The next post I will talk about some shooting tips to get the ball into the net
