In EA FC 24 you have more ways to score goals than ever before. We’ll show you tips and tricks for the new FIFA successor that are guaranteed to increase your scoring success rate.
What should you pay attention to if you want to score goals? The best news first; In EA FC 24 you can score goals from almost every position. No matter whether in the penalty area or outside the penalty area.
We’ll show you the best way to get into dangerous situations and how to best use them to score a goal.
1. Tip: Choose a wide formation with fast wings
Which formations are the strongest? In our article on the best formations and tactics for the start, we had already presented you with some strong lineups. The showpiece and most important positions of these alignments are the offensive wings.
The new OP dribbling in EA FC 24 makes it extremely difficult to defend fast and dribbling players. You can best take advantage of this if your wingers spread the game wide and essentially stand on the touchline.
However, even the best individual players are of no use if you don’t have good playing equipment, because the ball has to get to the outside first. We have another tip for you so that you can play your way forward skillfully.
2nd tip: Play one-two passes to combine forwards
How do double passes work? One-twos are also an effective way to play forward in EA FC 24. To do this, simply hold down the L1 button on the Playstation or the LB button on the Xbox when playing.
If executed, the player who played the ball will immediately make his way forward so that the ball can be played again if necessary. This means you are constantly creating new opportunities to play on offense.
However, you need to be careful when you have the ball with your central defenders. You should only send these forward in an absolute emergency, such as an impending defeat.
3rd tip: Stay patient when building the game
That’s why you should take your time setting up the game: It’s understandable that you want to move forward as quickly as possible to score goals. However, it is an advantage if you slowly combine forward, because the more players you include in your attacking game, the more options you have in front of the goal.
Patience pays off especially when you are aggressively pressed by the opponent, which is the case in most EA FC 24 games. Don’t do your opponent a favor and pass the ball directly into the press, but instead choose the route via your defender or your goalkeeper.
Once you have gained some air and space, you should try to advance into a specific area in the opponent’s half.
4th tip: Go to the baseline and play into the backcourt
Why should I go to baseline? The goal of your passing relay should always be the opponent’s goal line. From here you have the opportunity to play a pass behind the defenders.
This tactic is very effective because the attackers usually move intelligently into the backcourt to wait for the flat pass. If your pass reaches your teammate, in most cases it is enough to briefly tap the shot button to overcome the opposing goalkeeper.
However, if your opponent defends well, you may have difficulty getting the pass into the backcourt. In this case, you shouldn’t be afraid to just shoot at the goal.
Below we will show you how to use different shooting techniques to your advantage.
5. Tip: Use the different types of shots depending on the situation
Which shots are most effective? In a separate article we introduced you to the different types of shots in EA FC 24 in detail. Cross-cut shots and outside-foot shots in particular are extremely effective as they give your shots the spin to turn the ball past the keeper and into the goal.
So if your opponent is prepared for your passes into the backcourt, you can either move from the outside into the middle and look for the finish or you can opt for a long-range shot. Both variants are a good way to score goals with targeted shots.
You should always make sure that you aim for the far corner with your player’s strong foot. Depending on the situation, you choose, following this motto, a shot from the outside of the foot with the L2 button on the Playstation or the LT button on the Xbox, or a cut shot with R1 on the Playstation or RB on the Xbox.
But the power shot also promises to be a great goal threat this year. We have summarized for you at a glance the players who are particularly good at the power shot.
These were our five basic tips for a better attacking game and therefore more goals for you in EA FC 24. Take the time and try to incorporate these tips into your gameplay and you are guaranteed to score more goals.
