FC 26 Controls

Ground Pass / Header

Plays the ball along the grass to a nearby teammate, or passes a header on when the ball arrives in the air.

Tip: FC 26 ground passes travel straighter with less automatic curve, so aim clear of any defender standing in the line.

Lob Pass / Cross / Header

Lifts the ball in a high arc to a teammate further away, and doubles as the cross from wide and a lofted header.

Tip: FC 26 crosses are aimed further ahead of the target, so deliver them while your attacker is still running at goal.

Through Pass

Plays the ball into space ahead of a running teammate so they collect it behind the defenders.

Tip: With semi-assisted passing, aim into the gap between two defenders so the pass finds the runner behind them.

Shoot / Volley / Header

Strikes at goal with the laces, or volleys or heads it when the ball is in the air; the power bar sets how hard.

Tip: Two to three bars of power is a reliable range; a shot with no clear lane to goal is likely to be blocked.

Finesse Shot

Curls the ball with the inside of the foot, trading pace for placement, usually toward the far corner.

Tip: Works best from an angle to the goal; forced under pressure in a crowded box, it tends to get blocked.

Protect Ball

Keeps the player's body between the ball and the nearest opponent to hold possession, including while receiving.

Tip: Holding it before a pass arrives improves the first touch at the cost of speed; the earlier you hold, the more control.

Driven Ground Pass

Plays a firmer, faster pass along the grass that moves the ball quickly under pressure, but is harder to control.

Tip: When attacking down a wing, a firm pass along the ground into the penalty area is a strong option.

Lobbed Through Pass

Sends a high, arcing through ball over the defensive line for a runner to chase in behind.

Sprint

Runs at full speed, with or without the ball, to break into space or chase down a run.

Tip: Holding sprint as a loose ball drops makes the player accelerate straight toward where they can reach it.

Shield / Jockey

With the ball, puts the body between it and the defender; without it, jockeys to stay goal-side of the attacker.

Tip: Players with high Strength and Aggression are generally better at shielding the ball.

Change Player

Moves control to the next defender the game selects, so you can react as the ball moves past your player.

Tip: Next Player Switching in settings can favor the defender goal side or closest to the ball; pick what suits you.

Ground Pass / Header

Plays the ball along the grass to a nearby teammate, or passes a header on when the ball arrives in the air.

Tip: FC 26 ground passes travel straighter with less automatic curve, so aim clear of any defender standing in the line.

Lob Pass / Cross / Header

Lifts the ball in a high arc to a teammate further away, and doubles as the cross from wide and a lofted header.

Tip: FC 26 crosses are aimed further ahead of the target, so deliver them while your attacker is still running at goal.

Through Pass

Plays the ball into space ahead of a running teammate so they collect it behind the defenders.

Tip: With semi-assisted passing, aim into the gap between two defenders so the pass finds the runner behind them.

Shoot / Volley / Header

Strikes at goal with the laces, or volleys or heads it when the ball is in the air; the power bar sets how hard.

Tip: Two to three bars of power is a reliable range; a shot with no clear lane to goal is likely to be blocked.

Low Driven Shot

Keeps a normal strike low and hard along the grass, useful for beating a goalkeeper at close range.

Tip: Best inside the box and on cutbacks; from long range or a wide angle, a finesse or power shot has a better chance.

Chip Shot

Lifts the ball over a goalkeeper who has come off their line, usually from close range.

Tip: Title Update 1.5.0 made chips more accurate and less likely to drift wide, so use them when the keeper rushes out.

Finesse Shot

Curls the ball with the inside of the foot, trading pace for placement, usually toward the far corner.

Tip: Works best from an angle to the goal; forced under pressure in a crowded box, it tends to get blocked.

Low Driven Finesse Shot

Adds the low driven modifier to a finesse shot, so the placed, curling effort stays close to the ground.

Power Shot

Hits the ball as hard as possible for pace from distance, at the cost of a longer wind-up than a normal shot.

Tip: Make space before you start it, as the long wind-up leaves time for a block; Power Shot PlayStyles add accuracy.

Low Driven Power Shot

Keeps a power shot low along the ground, combining full pace with a flatter path toward goal.

Tip: It keeps the power shot's long wind-up, so it needs the same space around you before you strike.

Fake Shot

Shapes to shoot, then cancels the kick and takes the ball in the direction you hold, sending a blocker the wrong way.

Tip: Hold a direction away from where the player is facing; the sudden change of direction is what beats the defender.

Fake Pass

Shapes to play a lob pass or cross, then cancels it and carries the ball in the direction you hold instead.

Fake Shot to Shot

Fakes a shot or cross with no direction held, so the player stops on the ball instead of turning away.

Tip: FC 26 made this stop flow into a dribble more quickly, so be ready to move off again straight away.

Driven Through Pass

Sends a quicker, flatter through ball into space than the standard version, giving defenders less time to react.

Rewind and Try Again

Kick Off only

Pauses a Kick Off match and rewinds play so you can replay a moment, such as a missed chance, and try again.

Tip: It cannot rewind past injuries, substitutions, penalties or bookings, or back into an earlier half.

Protect Ball

Keeps the player's body between the ball and the nearest opponent to hold possession, including while receiving.

Tip: Holding it before a pass arrives improves the first touch at the cost of speed; the earlier you hold, the more control.

Driven Ground Pass

Plays a firmer, faster pass along the grass that moves the ball quickly under pressure, but is harder to control.

Tip: When attacking down a wing, a firm pass along the ground into the penalty area is a strong option.

Lofted Ground Pass

Chips a pass at medium height over a defender in the way, useful when the ground route is blocked.

Tip: Lofted passes lost accuracy in Title Update 1.5.0; players with the Inventive PlayStyle lose less of it.

Lofted Through Pass

Lifts a through ball over nearby defenders into space for a runner, harder to intercept than one along the ground.

Tip: Suits short distances, like a playmaker finding a striker just behind the back line.

Lobbed Through Pass

Sends a high, arcing through ball over the defensive line for a runner to chase in behind.

Driven Lob Pass / Driven Cross

Plays a faster, flatter lob or cross that reaches the target sooner than a floated ball, good for short crosses.

High Lob

Sends a steeper, higher lob or cross that stays in the air longer than the standard version.

Tip: The extra hang time gives attackers a chance to set up acrobatic finishes such as bicycle kicks.

Ground Cross

Plays a low cross that stays near the grass and bends into the penalty area toward an attacker's feet.

Driven Ground Cross

Drives a low cross in at pace, giving defenders and the goalkeeper less time to cut it out.

Trigger Run

Sends a teammate on a forward run, so you can play the ball into the space they are attacking.

Tip: To choose the angle of the run yourself instead of leaving it to the teammate, use Directional Runs.

Call for Support

Calls a nearby teammate toward the ball carrier to offer a short passing option.

Double Teammate Support

Calls two teammates toward the ball carrier at once, giving you more close passing options.

Dummy a Pass

Lets an incoming pass run past the player to a teammate behind, fooling a defender who expects a touch.

Tip: Only works if the defender commits to the first receiver and the pass is rolling toward a teammate, ideally toward goal.

Flair Pass / Swerve

Plays an inventive pass, such as a back-heel, and adds swerve to bend the ball around a defender.

Tip: Flair passes hit with more than two bars of power can still swerve toward the receiver.

Flair Shot / Outside the Foot

Shoots with the outside of the foot, a trivela, bending the ball the opposite way to a normal curling shot.

Tip: In FC 26 only players with the Gamechanger PlayStyle can hit a trivela; anyone else takes a normal laces shot.

Flair Lob / Cross

Plays a lob or cross with a flair technique, sending the ball up at a higher angle than the standard lob.

Flair Through / Swerve

Plays a through ball with a flair technique and swerve, useful for finding a run from an awkward body angle.

Let Ball Run

Leaves an incoming pass untouched so it keeps rolling past the player, who moves away from the ball.

Tip: Since FC 25 the move starts as soon as you input it rather than when the ball arrives, so you can commit early.

Flick Up

Flicks the ball up into the air with a touch, setting the player up for a volley.

Tip: Repeated flick ups in a row become less effective, and acrobatic shots straight after a flick lost accuracy in FC 26.

Disguised First Touch

Receives the ball with a deceptive touch that hides which way the player will go, to unsettle a close marker.

Pass and Go

Passes the ball and sends the passer straight on a forward run, setting up a quick one-two.

Tip: Pair it with a through pass from the receiver to play the passer into the space they are running into.

Pass and Move

Plays a pass, then moves the passer in the direction you hold, so they reposition instead of standing still.

Directional Runs

Sends a teammate on a run in the direction you choose, rather than leaving the route of the run to the AI.

Tip: First-time through balls aimed far behind the way the passer is facing are much less accurate in FC 26.

Player Lock

Locks your control onto an off-the-ball teammate while the AI handles the ball carrier, so you steer the run yourself.

Tip: Player Lock is off by default; turn it on in the gameplay settings before this input does anything.

Switching (Player Lock)

Picks which teammate to lock onto by flicking toward them, moving your control from the ball carrier to that player.

Tip: Avoid flicking the instant you activate the lock; rushing it is an easy way to pick the wrong teammate.

Hard Super Cancel

Cancels the action in progress, such as a shot or pass wind-up or an automatic run to the ball, and gives you full control.

Cancel Foul Advantage

Stops play after a foul when the referee has waved advantage, so you take the free kick instead of playing on.

Shield Step In / Push Back

Steps the player's body into a nearby opponent to hold them off and protect the ball.

Precision Pass

Aims the pass at a spot you choose with an on-screen target, for passes to feet or through balls into tight gaps.

Tip: Aiming the target takes time, so save it for balls down the wing or into the box rather than quick build-up play.

Precision Swerve Ground Pass

Bends a manually aimed pass along the ground around defenders and into the path of a runner.

Precision Lob Pass

Lifts a manually aimed pass over defenders to the exact spot you choose with the on-screen target.

Tip: Precise aim helps, but it does not fully make up for a passer with low passing attributes.

Move Player

Moves your controlled player around the pitch and dribbles the ball in the direction you point.

Tip: FC 26 sped up jog dribbling, so carrying the ball without sprinting covers ground faster than in past games.

Sprint

Runs at full speed, with or without the ball, to break into space or chase down a run.

Tip: Holding sprint as a loose ball drops makes the player accelerate straight toward where they can reach it.

Shield / Jockey

With the ball, puts the body between it and the defender; without it, jockeys to stay goal-side of the attacker.

Tip: Players with high Strength and Aggression are generally better at shielding the ball.

First Touch / Knock-On

Pushes the ball well ahead with the first touch so the player can sprint onto it into open space.

Tip: Only use it with space ahead; in a crowded midfield the long touch often hands the ball to an opponent.

Controlled First Touch / Effort Touch

Takes a sharp touch in the chosen direction as the ball arrives, quicker than a normal touch but safer than a knock-on.

Tip: Works well when a defender is rushing in and you have a little room to take the ball away from them.

Stop and Face Goal

Stops the player and turns them to face the opponent's goal, ready for a shot or a forward pass.

Strafe Dribble

Dribbles sideways with the body kept facing the goal, so you can hold the ball close and look for a pass.

Tip: It is slow, so use it to keep the ball while a passing option opens up, not to beat a defender for pace.

Controlled Sprint

Runs faster than a normal dribble while keeping the ball close, trading top speed for control.

Tip: Starting in a controlled sprint and then bursting into a full sprint can catch a defender off guard.

Stop Ball

Brings the ball to a dead stop under the player's feet, halting the run so you can reset.

Jostle

Ball in the air

Uses the body to battle an opponent for position as a high ball drops, to win it or make room for a header.

Tip: It works best when you are in front of the opponent, and the stronger player gains more from the contest.

Skill Moves

Performs tricks such as step-overs and feints to beat a defender; which moves work depends on the player's star rating.

Tip: If the inputs feel hard, the Simplified Skill Moves accessibility setting chooses a fitting move from a single flick.

Quick Tactics

Opens a shortcut menu of one-off team instructions you can use mid-match without pausing.

Tip: Offside Trap and Team Press only work without the ball, and Get in Box only with it.

Offside Trap

Steps your back line up together in one quick push to catch runners offside before a through ball.

Tip: Near your own box, pair it with a partial team press to lift the line while the midfield stays compact.

Team Press

Sends your AI teammates after the ball with heavy pressure for a short spell to force a turnover.

Tip: Lasts up to 20 seconds or until you win the ball, then needs 100 seconds to recharge, so save it for key moments.

Extra Striker

Pushes a defender forward as an extra attacker, for the closing minutes when you need a goal.

Tip: It leaves one defender fewer at the back, so a quick counterattack can punish it.

Get in Box

Pushes more teammates into the penalty area so there are extra targets when you cross.

Tip: Works only while you have the ball, so call it as you move into a crossing position.

Tactical Focus

Opens a menu that tilts your current setup toward attack or defense without changing the formation.

Tip: Each shift moves build-up and defensive approach by one level, so treat it as a nudge rather than a new tactic.

Default

Tactical Focus

Returns build-up and defensive approach to your original tactic's settings, undoing any attacking or defending focus.

Defending

Tactical Focus

Lowers build-up and defensive approach one level each and shifts roles defensively, so the team sits deeper.

Attacking

Tactical Focus

Raises build-up and defensive approach one level each and shifts roles forward, so the team presses higher.

My Tactics

Opens your saved custom tactics so you can swap to another formation and set of instructions mid-match.

Tip: A tactic change takes a moment to settle on the pitch and goes through faster when the ball is out of play.

Custom Tactic 1

Switches to the first custom tactic you saved, with its own formation, roles and instructions.

Tip: The lineup stays the same across your custom tactics, so check your players suit the new formation.

Custom Tactic 2

Switches to the second custom tactic you saved, with its own formation, roles and instructions.

Custom Tactic 3

Switches to the third custom tactic you saved, with its own formation, roles and instructions.

Custom Tactic 4

Switches to the fourth custom tactic you saved, with its own formation, roles and instructions.

Tactical Suggestions

Opens tactic ideas the game picks from the score, time, red cards and how the match is going.

Tip: Accepting a suggestion in FC 26 keeps your formation, so it changes how the team plays, not its shape.

Tactic Suggestion 1

Applies the first tactic the game suggests for the match state, such as Tiki-Taka, Counter Attack or Park the Bus.

Tactic Suggestion 2

Applies the second suggested tactic, an alternative approach for the same match situation.

Tactic / Focus Suggestion

Applies the third suggestion, which is either a tactical focus change or one more suggested tactic.

Substitution

Opens a quick menu of up to four substitution options so you can change players without pausing.

Change Player

Moves control to the next defender the game selects, so you can react as the ball moves past your player.

Tip: Next Player Switching in settings can favor the defender goal side or closest to the ball; pick what suits you.

Change Player (Manual)

Picks the teammate in the direction you flick, for when the automatic choice is not the defender you want.

Tip: Settings offer Classic, Player Rotation and Adaptive versions of this switching, so try the one that feels predictable.

Icon Switching

Displays switching icons over nearby teammates, showing which player each direction will select.

Tackle / Push or Pull

Push or pull when chasing

Lunges in with a standing tackle to win the ball, or pushes and pulls the attacker when you are chasing.

Tip: Time it when squared up and the dribbler comes at you; FC 26 adds a consistent recovery delay after a missed tackle.

Hard Tackle

Makes a more aggressive standing challenge than a normal tackle, with a higher risk of a foul.

Professional Foul

Deliberately brings the attacker down to stop a dangerous break, at the cost of a free kick and a possible card.

Tip: Use it in midfield to kill a counter; inside your own box it gives away a penalty.

Sliding Tackle

Goes to ground to knock the ball away or block a pass or shot that a standing tackle cannot reach.

Tip: Best when the attacker pushes the ball too far ahead; from behind or in your own box it risks cards and penalties.

Hard Slide Tackle

Throws in a more aggressive slide than the standard one, raising the risk of a foul or card.

Clearance

Kicks the ball away from your goal when a loose ball or cross arrives, trading possession for safety.

Tip: Auto Clearances is on by default in FC 26 settings, so defenders may also clear on their own when it fits.

Technical Clearance

Clears with a more controlled strike than the standard clearance, for when you want some direction on the ball.

Shoulder Challenge / Sealout

Barges a dribbler off the ball when you run alongside, or seals them away by getting between them and the ball.

Tip: Strength matters: since Title Update 1.4.0 a much weaker player is more likely to stumble in these duels.

Contain

Technical and Legacy Defending

Moves your defender automatically toward the ball carrier to close them down without committing to a tackle.

Tip: Use it to approach, then release and jockey once close so you keep manual control of the duel.

Physical Tackle

Advanced Defending

Uses the body instead of a lunge, putting a shoulder into the attacker to take the ball.

Tip: Works best when you are side by side with the attacker, and it rarely gives away a foul.

Teammate Contain

Sends the AI teammate nearest the ball to press the dribbler while you control another defender.

Tip: Pressing players tire and cannot be called again for a while, and pulling one out of position frees a runner.

Partial Team Press

Has the two teammates nearest the ball close passing lanes and cover runs rather than chase the ball carrier.

Tip: Use it for a few seconds after a pass rather than holding it, so your team does not overcommit.

Sprint Jockey

Keeps the jockey stance while running, so you can stay square to a fast dribbler or a player on the run.

Tip: Expect less agility than a normal jockey, so a sharp change of direction can still beat you.

Quick Get Up

After a slide tackle

Gets your player back on their feet faster after a slide tackle so they can rejoin play sooner.

Engage Shielding Opponent

Steps your jockeying defender into a dribbler who is shielding the ball, to challenge instead of waiting behind.

Tip: Since Title Update 1.4.0, players with high Strength and Aggression shield better, so expect a harder duel with them.

Rush Goalkeeper Out

Brings your goalkeeper off the line toward the ball carrier to narrow the angle and cut their time to shoot.

Tip: Coming out too far leaves the goal open to a chip, so advance early and stop rather than charging all the way.

Goalkeeper Rush to Contain

Brings the goalkeeper out to confront the ball carrier and keep closing them down, much like a defender containing.

Goalkeeper Rush to Center

Rushes the goalkeeper toward a central position to reset their positioning quickly.

Tip: Since the Holiday Update it no longer works in open play and can only be used during set pieces.

Goalkeeper Rush to Center Cancel

Calls off a rush to center, stopping the goalkeeper before they move further out of position.

Drop Kick

Kicks the ball out of the hands for distance, to clear danger or switch play upfield quickly.

Tip: It travels further than a throw but is less accurate, so throw instead when a nearby teammate is free.

Throw / Pass

Throws the ball to a nearby teammate, the accurate and quick way to keep possession from the back.

Tip: A quick throw to a full-back is the safe first option, but its range is shorter than a kick.

Drop Ball

Puts the ball down at the goalkeeper's feet so they can dribble or pass it along the ground.

Pick Up Ball

Picks the ball back up into the goalkeeper's hands after dropping it, ready for a throw or kick.

Driven Throw

Throws the ball harder and flatter than a standard throw, reaching a teammate faster to start a quick attack.

Driven Kick

Strikes a low, fast kick from the hands to find a teammate further upfield than a throw can reach.

Move Goalkeeper

Takes manual control of the goalkeeper's position so you can shuffle across or step out to cut the angle.

Tip: The Holiday Update greatly reduced how fast and far it moves in open play, so make small, early adjustments.

GK Cover Far Post

Shifts the goalkeeper toward the far post to guard against a shot aimed across goal.

Switch Camera

Goalkeeper only

Changes the camera view while you control the goalkeeper, for a clearer look at play in front of goal.

Aim

Sets the direction of the free kick, whether you are shooting past the wall or picking out a teammate.

Tip: For a curled shot, aim just past the wall player nearest the keeper with about three to three and a half bars.

Reticle Aim

Moves the contact point on the ball, which sets the spin and how the shot curls or dips.

Tip: Striking the side of the ball turns the shot into an inside or outside foot curler, so check the shot type first.

Ground Pass

Plays the free kick short along the ground to a teammate instead of shooting.

Lob Pass / Cross

Lifts the free kick into the air as a cross into the box or a lofted pass to a teammate.

Wall Jump

Makes your defensive wall jump to block a free kick aimed over the top.

Tip: Attackers can aim low under a jumping wall, so do not jump on every kick.

Wall Charge

Moves your wall forward toward the kicker to close the gap and block the shot earlier.

Tip: Charging too early can get your players warned or even booked by the referee.

Move Wall

Shifts the whole wall sideways to cover the side of the goal you think the kick is aimed at.

Select Kick Taker

Picks which player takes the free kick, so your best dead-ball specialist is on the ball.

Tip: Choose a player with the Dead Ball PlayStyle and high free kick accuracy; a left-footer suits kicks from the left.

Add Kick Taker

Brings another player to stand over the ball, giving you a second option to shoot, pass or dummy.

Move Goalkeeper

Nudges your goalkeeper left or right before the kick to cover the side of the goal the wall leaves open.

Call 2nd Kick Taker

Brings a second player to the ball so the defense cannot tell who will take the kick or how.

Tip: With two takers you can shoot with either, lay the ball off, chip it up or run one over the ball as a decoy.

2nd Kick Taker Shot

Lets the second taker strike the free kick instead of the first, using their foot and angle for the shot.

2nd Kick Taker Layoff Pass

Lays the ball off along the ground to the second taker, who shoots from a fresh angle.

2nd Kick Taker Lob

Chips the ball up for the second taker to hit on the volley instead of striking a dead ball.

2nd Kick Taker Run Over Ball

Has the second taker fake a shot and run over the ball, so another taker can strike once the decoy is done.

Call 3rd Kick Taker

Adds a third player at the ball, giving you one more shooter or decoy for the free kick.

3rd Kick Taker Shot

Has the third taker shoot instead of the others, adding a third foot and angle to choose from.

3rd Kick Taker Run Over Ball

Has the third taker fake a shot and run over the ball, one more decoy before a teammate strikes.

Co-op Change Set Piece User

Passes control of the set piece to another co-op player on your side before the kick is taken.

Corners - Lob Cross

Floats the corner into the box for teammates to attack in the air.

Tip: About one and a half to two bars suits the near post, while three to three and a half reaches the far post.

Corners - Pass

Plays the corner short along the ground to a nearby teammate instead of crossing it in.

Tip: Call a teammate over first so the pass has a close target, then cross or lay it back once they receive.

Aim Kick

Sets where the corner is aimed, such as the near post, far post or penalty spot.

Reticle Aim

Moves the target marker for the delivery, where a lower spot gives a flatter cross and a higher one a lofted ball.

Display Corner Tactics

Opens the menu of called runs, so you can send a teammate to a chosen area before the corner is taken.

Tip: FC 26 also lets you set corner roles such as Near Post, Back Post and Top of Box in your set piece assignments.

Run Far Post

Sends a teammate to attack the back post, a target for a longer cross over the defenders.

Tip: Put your best header on the back post and give the cross about three to three and a half bars of power.

Edge of Box Run

Pulls a teammate to the top of the penalty area, ready for a ball played back out for a shot.

Tip: Pick them out with a low, two-bar delivery aimed away from the crowded goalmouth.

Crowd the Goalkeeper

Sends a teammate to stand near the goalkeeper, crowding their space as they try to deal with the cross.

Run Near Post

Sends a teammate to attack the near post for a quick header or flick-on in front of the defenders.

Tip: Aim just in front of the near post with about one and a half to two bars for a low, fast ball.

Move Along Line

Throw-in

Walks the thrower up or down the touchline before the throw to find a better angle.

Short Throw-in

Throws the ball low and short to a nearby teammate, the safe way to keep possession.

Tip: FC 26 lets you set a left and a right throw-in taker in your team's set piece assignments.

Short Throw-in (Manual)

Throws into space ahead of a teammate instead of to their feet, so they can run onto it down the wing.

Long Throw-in

Throws the ball high and further up the pitch, reaching teammates beyond the nearest markers.

Tip: Hold longer for more distance; a player with the Long Throw PlayStyle reaches much further up the pitch.

Fake Throw

Fakes the throw so a tight marker commits, then lets you throw to a teammate left in space.

Aim

Picks where the penalty goes, from either corner to straight down the middle.

Tip: The corners are hardest to save, and not aiming at all sends the shot down the middle.

Shoot

Strikes the penalty, timed against a circle around the ball that shrinks and grows with the taker's composure.

Tip: Shoot when the circle is small but not red, and keep power near 90 percent so the ball stays on target.

Finesse Shot

Curls the penalty toward the corner with a placed strike instead of relying on raw power.

Chip Shot

Chips the penalty softly, usually down the middle, to beat a goalkeeper who dives early.

Select Kick Taker

Chooses which player steps up to take the penalty.

Tip: Pick someone with high penalties, composure and shot power for an easier circle to time and a faster shot.

Goalkeeper Move Side to Side

Shuffles your goalkeeper along the line before the kick, a mind game to make the taker second-guess.

Tip: A small step toward your chosen side just before diving improves reach, especially for top corners.

Goalkeeper Dive

Dives the goalkeeper toward the zone you pick, guessing where the penalty is going.

Tip: Flick as the taker's foot meets the ball; too early and the keeper commits, too late and the ball is past.

Goalkeeper Gestures

Plays a gesture or taunt on the line to distract the taker before the penalty.
