Controls
As I said,this is a simulation,so it's logical that controls are a bit more
complex.Here they are:
Offence:
D-pad,Analog-move player
X-pass the ball
O-pass a high ball
Triangle-pass the ball into space in front of a player
Square-shoot the ball on the goal(pace of the ball depends on how long you
hold the button)
R1-dash,player runs faster
L1-bicycle dribbling
L1+X-double pass
L1+O-double pass with a high ball
L1+Triangle-pass the ball into space with a high ball
L1+Square-lob the goalkeeper
Square+X-fake shot
Square+Triangle-cancel shot
There is also one other move you can do when attacking.When you pass the ball
to a player,you automatically control him,right?Well,just before the ball
reaches him,you can press R1.That way,he will let the ball go between his legs
going to the player behind him.This is a cunning trick,and it often fools the
opponent's defence,giving you a chance to score.It is best that you train this
in the Training mode until you can do it perfectly.
Defence:
D-pad,Analog-move player
X-one player tries to steal the ball from the opponent
O-tackle,kick the ball if you have it in possesion
Square-kick the ball if you have it in possesion
R1-dash
L1-switch the player you control
Offence,Defence:
Start-pause menu
When you pause the game,you're given some options:
Resume match-you guess what this means,right?
Formation-two options:
Formation setting-there's a special chapter about this
Formation Data manager-if you already have a formation set,you
can load it here,or save a new one
Camera type-you can set the view on the pitch(in my opinion,Broadcast is the
best choice)
Screen setting-turn ON/OFF player names,radar,strategy icons time,result
Game speed-this is individual:if you like to dribble,choose a slower game,or,
if you just like fast running,max out the yellow line
Sound setting-a few useful options here:change the volume,turn the commentator
ON/OFF,or even change the language of the commentator(it's sooo
fun to listen him talk in German
Quit game-this too,you should understand
