Free kick | Set pieces FIFA 15 Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Strong free kick
A strong free kick is the simplest but also the most effective way of scoring a goal during a free kick. In order to shoot at the goalpost, press the modifier and the shoot button. Try to select a proper dose of power. Try choosing an upper corner of the goalpost - it is hard for the goalkeeper to catch the ball there.
Finesse free kick
A technical free kick is a good choice for player with good technique. This type is good for free kicks maximally 20 meters away from the goalpost. In order to perform such a shot, press the shoot and finesse modifier buttons.
Powerful free kick
Sending a "torpedo" at the goalpost from afar is the domain of strong and athletic players. Such shots are good from large distances, when the most important thing is not necessarily precision, but the sheer power, which can cause problems to the opposing goalkeeper. In order to send a straight torpedo, press the shoot, modifier, and finesse buttons at the same time.
Using additional players
FIFA 15 allows for executing free kicks with as much as three players. In order to use their skills in this set piece, you can add a second - the pace control button - and a third player - the finesse button.
Changing the player
You can change the free kick executioner by pressing the sprint button.
Switching to a receiver
At any moment you can give up performing a free kick personally, instead trying to win a good position to receive the ball played by your teammate. In order to switch to one of the players inside the penalty area, press the right stick. Then you have to struggle to win a good position and when the moment is right, ask for the ball.
