| The most effective way to use the 360-degree spin move is to
spin at an angle. One way that I set up this move is that I'll deliberately angle the
player in one direction (for example, northeast), and sharply angle him NW, spinning at
the same time. I've found that this is a good way to shake off a pesky defender,
especially if the ball-handler is slower. This zig-zag approach to spinning works in FIFA
99 as well, as I did it many times to great effect across the 18-yard box before I shot. |

If you want to just make a goal on a free kick, and not try to
make a direct goal (which is hard), just lob the ball to the player nearest the goal and
do a bicycle kick. This works about 90% of the time for me. The other 10% I either miss
the ball or the goalie saves it or deflects it into corner.
Also, an indirect free kick is effective sometimes. Just pass to the guy standing right
next to you on a free kick and then quickly pass back and shoot it. A lot of times you'll
surprise the goalie and it'll go past him into the goal or strike the post. It's cool. |

| When the opponent's goalkeeper is holding the ball, press the
(ALT) button for off-side trap. When the goalkeeper kick it to the forward or midfielders,
they will get off-side. But beware of this trick! THEY CAN EASILY BE ONE ON ONE WITH YOUR
GOALKEEPER. I usually use this trick and I can get FREE free kick. :) |

| Try using CTRL when you send a long pass (E + A) or a normal
pass (it doesn't work all the time with normal passes) and the reciever will let the ball
pass fooling the defender and then run after the ball. |

| In FIFA 2000, it is much easier to run at the defending players.
Try to pass the ball up to a striker who is central but about half way into the opponents
half. If you can hold the ball up, draw the defender to you and just before he gets near,
turn and use sprint to get away from him-towards the goal. If the opponent has a flat back
line then you will one on one with the keeper now, with a defender giving chase. If you
run diagonal to the goal the attacker does a really good job of holding off the defender
with his arm. Then as the keeper comes out, just put a bit of curl on it at the edge or
just inside the box and slot it home. It's an easy goal to score on World Class. And on
Professional you can try and just run straight at the defender without even trying to draw
him and hold it up. |

| Great tip for scoring. When you're in the penalty box and the
keeper's gonna go for the ball, use the through pass (with or without direction, depends
on where you're coming from) and... GOAL!!! :D |

| When you can't win when you're playing a season, change the
tactic from man-to-man to zonal. The AI will now be easier to beat! (really!). |

| When the keeper has the ball in his hands you can do the
following thing: press the Q button to let the keeper let go off the ball, right after
that push the A button. Now the keeper kicks the ball super fast and it goes far. |

I have a good strategy for scoring goals. Almost all my goals
are scored the same way. Talking about the AI, the computer never adapted itself to my
playing way.
My strategy is simply that I play with a 4-3-3 way with a sweeper. I pass the ball
backwards until it reaches the left wing defender. Then I pass it with Q to the left wing
midfielder then with Q again to the left forward player. The forward player then runs to
the side line of the pitch. I shield the ball and fake the defender and then make an over
for the right forward player who will strike it by the head or make a volley kick. Just
put in the right and left strikers good players with good headers and strong bodies. You
can do this from either sides. I mean change left with right. This is a 100% scoring
chance.Opponent Goal
LF CF RF
LM CM RM
LB CB RB
SW
I pass until the ball with LB then I pass with Q to LM then to LF. LF
shield the ball and fake the defender and make a lob ball to CF or RF, and they'll win the
aerial duel frequently if they have strong header/body.
P.S. - I play with Chelsea, with no modifications or cheats. My strikers are
Petrescue and Forsell for the right and left strikers. |

| On a corner kick, send the ball to the most open man in front of
the goal, and bang the Circle button to shoot as soon as the guy gets the ball. In most
situations, a conservative tackle will do the job. Only use aggressive tackles when you
desperately need to get the ball, like when the opponent is close to your goal.
Be very careful when aiming your aggressive tackles (Square button). Try to aim so that
your foot will hit the ball and not the other player, or else you risk getting called for
a foul.
Bang on the Triangle button when you have the ball to sprint like a madman.
Use the lob pass to send the ball up over crowds when you have to make a long pass and
don't want the ball stolen. |
