How to counter effectively? | Attack FIFA 16 Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
As may be expected, there is no one, uniform answer to this question. A good and effective counter play is a mixture of many diverse factors - this includes not only precision and appropriate pace of the action, but often lots of luck, as in bouncing the ball off opponent's player, or a failed play of opponent's player.
Unarguably, the majority of countering actions are played on the wings of the field - this is there, where you most often find dynamic and most creative players, who are capable of defeating the opponent's defenses in one sprint and throw the ball precisely into the opponent's penalty area. However, what offers the greatest versatility of actions is the middle of the field - thanks to this, it becomes possible to play the ball both to the players on the wings of the field, as well as to the forwards moving in the same direction.
