It's Finally Time To Talk Some More About FIFA 11 Tournaments Online

One method in which many people in the online world like to use for scoring goals is by whipping in crosses from the flanks and then heading or volleying the ball into the net. It can be pretty difficult to stop this as the defending team, given the limitations of the game being played on a video game console. There is no sure way to guard against the opposition crossing the ball and scoring a goal, but there are some ways in which you can lower the likelihood of this happening. Let us tell you about FIFA 11 tournaments online.

One method which is pretty effective is to make sure that the crossing player in the opposite team is closely marked by one of your players. When a player is being manned very closely, it becomes harder for them to execute an accurate cross and this gives you a better chance of getting your head to the ball and clearing it from danger.

Another way I like to prevent crosses coming in from the wide areas is by quickly fouling. This is useful when the opposite team has just broken away and you are short of numbers at the back. Fouling will give you time to get some reinforcements at the back, although you should be prepared to be penalized with a yellow card.

Another way, in which you can defend a cross that is already coming in, is by taking control of one of the players inside the danger area. You should then be on the lookout for an "X" sign which will be placed on the field indicating where the ball will land. You should move towards this sign and then when the ball is about to land, press the shoot button so that the defender clears the ball.

Another situation you may have to face when you playing in a tournament is the dreaded penalty shoot-out. You should know that there is a time lag between when you press the button and when you get a response from the system when playing online. In other words, we can safely say that there is a difference between taking penalty kicks in offline mode compared to taking penalty kicks in online mode.

In FIFA 11, there is a moving indicator where you need to time your pressing of the shoot button so as to get the maximum amount of accuracy. The pointer should land in the green zone so that you can take the best penalty possible.

If you have been playing in a tournament you may have to go through the process of taking penalty kicks to decide the outcome of a game. You should know that there is a bit of lag time between when you press the buttons on the controller and when you actually get a response from the game, when playing in online mode.

The tip for Internet play is to press the shoot button, when the pointer is at around the yellow, orange and red area on the right hand side of the screen. It is important to realize that this area is for when the indicator is moving at the normal speed for online play. As for the "slow" moving indicator, you will need to press the button slightly later so as to offset this moving speed indicator.
