It’s doesn’t matter what I seem to do in this game I have watched hours off tips videos on defending ect and how to improve and have trued to implement the advice in my play with tons of practice but I still end up losing 90% of my games and I mean heavily like every single game I conceded more than 3 goals also a lot of games I lose by 7/8/9 goals. I just cannot defend what ever I try. I try jockey, I try covering runs, I try positioning my defenders/players to cut of passing lanes but the opponent just always skills and dribbles down the wing then changes direction when I catch up with them and then proceeds to skill dribble in to my box whilst passing/walking through me and I just can’t win y try he ball for atleast 10-30 seconds and eventually it’s a goal. When I do some how get a tackle or near their player I can’t put muscle them or my tackle falls right back into their path for an easy slot in for them. I feel like I duck hard at this game or I’m just missing something I’m not the fastest when it comes to inputting commands on the controller all in quick concession but I can’t believe I’m that bad at the game to be getting beaten 10/11/12 games in a row by a significant score line 😢😢
Been there!! Watching Tips and more stuff but it doesn't work unless you understand certain movements that your players follow through when experiencing a Counter attack. The key to Stopping Counters always relies on how fast you can switch between Defenders and Alternatively Mark the nearest possible teammates and also applying pressure by L1 + R1 Jockey
I just don’t get also how when I attack the opponent even if I have just won the ball and their players are all in my half if I quick counter them all their players are able to get back and there is no space so I have to fight through there whole team but when I loose the ball my whole team is just do spread out and I have like 1/2 players back and the opponent has loads of space and it’s not like they moved me around to create space with several passes/dribble ect they literally pass 1-2 times to the wings and have miles off space to allow them to dribble in my box where they are then so dangerous and I can’t do anything to get the ball back so I mostly just pray for my keeper to save me
You might have to look into your tactics bruh. For me. I use a 4 -2 -3 -1 ... Or a 433 (Defend) . Always keep your Fullbacks to stay back while attacking and toggle their Overlapping runs only when required via enabling attacking Full backs through D-Pad tactics. And most importantly, making your CDMs Cover center and Man mark. This way your whole formation won't spread their Ass cheeks to get ripped. And you might maintain a shape.
Bruvva I watched this video before going to sleep last night. Today I’m half way thru division 6. You REALLY REALly know what you are talking about. I never would have thought about ever hiring someone to coach me in fifa but I seriously would think twice about it now. Real tips none of that tactics non sense. My favorite tip is the one about second man pressing and manually controlling CB the opp is playing wide . Only thing is that the stamina runs out pretty fast and by the second attack my left back is all out of Gas.
Once I figured out about angle ur opponent away from goal defending is much more effective still concede goals but a lot less
Nice🤍

What difficulty you are playing ??
Can you explain what you should do if they cut/roll back and how to defend that? That's where i get caught on the counter.
I actually lost one tourney today all the goals were cutbacks as shown in video wish i had seen this video earlier 😢
Great point❤

Thanks btw I’m improving thanks to ur point of views on defending. It has helped me attack more often by being able to get the ball back
Glad to hear mate. If you decide to join, I look forward to working with you to make you even better :)
I posted this on the wrong video. It was the complete defending tutorial. Good stuff !
