FIFA 19: the best tips & tricks for beginners

With FIFA 19, the popular soccer simulation is entering a new round. If you are still a beginner, these tips and tricks will help you to keep up with experienced players quickly.

Beginners tips for FIFA 19

With FIFA 19, you will enter the world of football simulation for the first time, then the beginning will quickly seem a bit overwhelming. The menu, modes and options are user-friendly and you will quickly find your way around. It is more difficult on the lawn. However, with the following tips you can master every situation, even if Cristiano Ronaldo is rushing towards you or Manuel Neuer is guarding the goal.

• Always keep the ball moving. Beginners like to stop and think about what to do next. The opposing team only gains time to take the ball from them. Even short passes are enough to give the opponent no time and get the ball into the goal.
• Don't sprint all the time. It's tempting to hold the sprint button down, but you lose control of the ball. Sprint only in open space, i.e. when there is no opponent in your player's line of sight. This is particularly easy via the wings, because here the field is not so close together.
• Change your attack pattern as much as possible. Do not always storm straight forward in the simplest way. It is worth trying different ways. For example, you can counter a corner of the opponent, play over the wings, try short and double passes in the middle or crosses. This is particularly important in matches against real players. A player will remember if you try to score across the board too often. So be unpredictable.
• You should limit hard attacks. In professional football, a tackle is not as effective as the position of the player on the field. It can also happen that you collect a yellow or even a red card if you act too impetuously. Be careful and only attack when necessary.
• This tip is closely related to the attacks. Position yourself with the players so that spaces are not open to the opponent. This makes it easy to intercept passports. This tip requires some practice, but works wonders.
• With the dynamic tactics introduced in FIFA 19, beginners can get even more fun out of the game. These are equally suitable for professionals and beginners, because here the game developer Electronic Arts (EA) completely dispenses with controls to adjust the tactics. Instead, it explains how each option affects the field. This is particularly easy to understand for beginners. Take a little time and learn to use the dynamic tactics. The best thing about it: the set tactics can be easily selected during the game using the directional pad.
• Like the previous versions, FIFA 19 has a trainer because you can view it on the screen. Use it to see which buttons are used to shoot or pass. This makes ball control easier for you as a beginner. You activate the trainer in the settings during a match.
• Practice with the integrated training. The training sessions in FIFA 19 are very clear and teach you all commands and even tricks in an understandable manner. The more you practice with it, the faster success will come.
• Use Timed Finishing. This new function allows you to fire extremely powerful and often unsustainable shots. All you have to do is fire a normal shot and then press the button again when the command appears on the screen. Timed finsihing makes it easy to score more goals.
