Set Pieces
Taking a Direct Free Kick
Targeting Cursor
1. Press the left analog stick to aim the targeting cursor towards the area of net you want the ball to go.
Ballspin
2. Decide what kind of spin to put on the ball by positioning the impact cursor (the point at which you are going to strike the ball) with the right analog stick.
To make the ball swerve, put spin on it by striking it on one side. The nearer to the edge that contact is made, the greater the swerve produced (making contact with the right-hand side of the ball as you look at it sends it swerving in an arc to the right and then back in to the left, and vice versa).
Attacking SP Meter
3. To kick, press the button, button, or button to start the kick meter, and press it once more on the upswing to set the power of the shot (stop the pointer near the red zone for more power; the more powerful the shot, the faster the downswing will be). Press it a third time on the downswing to set the accuracy (stop the pointer in the middle of the accuracy zone for the best results).
