Fifa 18: the best tips for defense

In order to beat the big teams in FIFA 18 as a beginner, defense is of great importance. You can find out what is important in this practical tip.

Do not defend yourself too aggressively. Defend more passively than in FIFA 17.
Don't go into tackling too quickly, otherwise you'll see the opposing striker run away very quickly.
Try to stay close to your own gate for as long as possible.
Block the opponent's pass routes. Stay as close as possible to the passport recipient.
Do not pull the central defender out of the defense chain too quickly. This creates a gap that the opponent can use for passports.
Run back to your goal with a midfielder to stay compact. You also win an overpayment game. It becomes more difficult for the opponent to find gaps. Always pay attention to your back four when you run back.
Force the opponent to drop the ball. To do this, press the R1 or RB button. This confuses the opponent.
Pay attention to space when defending. Pay attention to the distance to the opponent. Don't let it get too big.
Run into the opposing pass and try to take possession of the ball. If the ball lands on you again, avoid duels.
Use L2 and LT to push the opponent away. This function also works in the sprint.
