FIFA 21 DEFENDING TUTORIAL / How to defend effectively - BEST Way To TACKLE, JOCKEY & CONTAIN

Anyone else find defending completely broken this year

Defending this year you literally tackle 3 times and the opponent still has the ball. Just bounces all over the place.

im sorry but ea have so fucked up the defending this year, when u try to tackle u either give a foul away, or u just dont win the ball at all and they continue to attack, or they just hold onto the ball even when ur pressing stand tackle, literally feel like ur player doesnt even want to tackle, no matter where i position myself no matter if im pressing i CANT win the ball back, i play on legendary and every game im getting 30% possesion and its pissing me off, theres a fine line between realistic and just fucking stupid, whats the point in playing career mode when im spending 90% of my time watching the bots with the ball and note even attacking myself, and when i do finally attack the computer are so good at defending icant even create chances unless i abuse pace, im so fed up already theve ruined defending this year idc

People with bad connections will have no chance this year with the current state of defending.

Every game I play I have to make around 30 passes to get anywhere near the goal and I lose the ball and my opponent will make 2 or 3 passes and scores my defence no we’re to be seen

My tackle button only works like 3/10 times. That's so weird, when charging to an opponent dribbling the ball, my player would be just looking lost without the tackle efforts.

Bro finally, I feel like defending is extremely hard in this game. Was waiting for this turtorial :) Ovvy man your the goat for real

How???i searched on youtoube how to defend better at fifa 21 and in that moment i got a notification for this video

Finding defending hard this year. Applied some custom tactics and used 4-2-3-1 so I can get used to the mechanics. Defo helped!

Went from FIFA 18 to this, honestly feel like I'm getting punished for not buying the other FIFA's over the years...

ovvy , lucas is absolutely marvellous. He saves me in games where i go KRASI mode.

Thanks ovvy, definitely needed these tips before I get/play the game today. Always a pleasure to watch keep up the great work and I hope all is well!!!

Ovvy, some analyses on different scenarios will be next level. Can't wait !

So basically, you take control of every player. You make every tackle. You close down on every attacker. You do everything. The problem with fifa in general is that, it's experienced players have no problem playing arcade football. There are certain things AI defenders should be doing INTRINSICALLY. They should close down INTRINSICALLY. They should track down loose footballs INTRINSICALLY. If you watch real football, every time a pass is made, everyone has a job and they achieve their task to the best of their ability. In Fifa you do everyone's job, which is arcade in nature. Have you ever seen a real football game, play like how Fifa plays? I didn't think so.

Haven’t played fifa since fifa18. Just got the game yesterday and got 12k FPs to make it easier to get a squad and can’t believe I packed CR7 lmao. Never packed him b4 so stoked

Thanks mate, as always great vid. Definitely picked up a few things.

Would request you to do a video on the defensive tactics..it looks, maybe im wrong, when playing against AI, all the players are on aggressive interception or maybe constant pressure..when trying to apply the same to my team, the player movement becomes sluggish and run out of steam pretty fast..and my players never seem to be aggressove enough to win the ball back..yet when playing against AI thats not the case..hoping to get a reply from you on this..thanks in advance

This clip gonna strengthen my game..👌🙏😎

Needed this thanks

2nd thnx for your tutorials i learn a lot from these
