How to score from set pieces in FC 27
Description
Set pieces give you time to think: Chousita’s corner assignments, a direct corner, a short corner with Player Lock and the base strike for free kicks.
At a corner or a free kick nobody forces you to decide quickly, yet many players take them without a plan. Chousita explains how to prepare set pieces so you have several answers ready and can pick the one that hurts your opponent most. In this free part: the corner assignments, the direct corner to the near post, a short corner with Player Lock to the far post and the base strike used for every free kick in FC 27.
What you will learn
- Set up your corner assignments: a taker on the opposite foot, one centre-back at the near post, the other as the central target, a striker at the far post and a player with Pinged Pass+ on the edge of the box
- Take the direct corner to the near post: right stick fully to the right and one tap up, aiming at the penalty spot with around two and a half bars of power
- Attack the near post with the selected player after feinting backwards, and aim the header at the far post
- Take it short and drive along the byline, then use Player Lock to move the far-post player into the six-yard box before crossing
- Start the free kick strike from inside foot, low, and move the contact point down until inside foot with curve appears, knowing that with Dead Ball the ball curves more and you need to adjust
Who it is for
For players who take corners and free kicks without a plan: they cross into the box and hope, don’t know who to put where or shoot free kicks by eye.
When to use it
At every corner and every free kick near the box, starting with your assignments set up before the match.
