Passing Can Be Important To Winning A FIFA 11 PS3 Online Tournament

To win a FIFA 11 PS3 tournament you need to master the basics; shooting, tackling and passing. The most important of all being passing. In FIFA there are various ways in which you can pass the ball and to beat the better the players you need to be able to perform all in the blink of an eye. Doing so will give you a much better chance of winning a tournament online or live.

One of part of the game that is integral to everything is passing and in FIFA this is no different. There are several types of pass that you will need to master in order to beat the better players in online tournaments. The most basic of all the moves is the short pass which can be accomplished by the depressing of the X button and holding the Left analogue stick in the direction you wish the ball to be played. The game also takes into consideration the length you hold down the X button too so depending on the distance away a team mate is should determine how long you hold the X button for.

The long pass in FIFA 11 can be used to quickly counter attack your opposition, this is particularly effective if you have fast strikers, the long pass can be performed by holding the O button and again holding the LS in the direction you wish to play the ball. This is also the way to switch the play however you need to hold the LS up or down depending on your position. The long pass is slightly harder to master and again I would advise practicing this on the training pitch.

One way to open up your opposition is to play a through ball, this can be done by pressing and holding the triangle button. Again the longer the button is held the harder the ball will be played. Timing of the pass is crucial to playing a successful through ball, make sure you practice in the arena to ensure you always spot your strikers making offensive runs.

The next type of pass is the one-two, holding the L1 button whilst playing a pass will make the passer make a forward run, when the receiving player has the ball press the pass button again and the ball will be returned to the original passer, this time however he may find himself in more space. An improvement on the one-two is instead of pressing the pass button, in advanced areas you can instead play a through ball, the run of the original passer means that the opposition will find him difficult to mark.

But by far the best way in FIFA to create goalscoring opportunities is to play the one-two with a lobbed through ball. To do this hold L1 and press X to make the initial pass, the passer will then make a forward run. As the player gets inline with the oppositions defence simply hold R1 and press and hold the triangle button to acquire the right amount of power on the pass to successfully clear the defence and dribble your attacker to the goal for shot.

In FIFA you should make sure that you are able to play every pass without out even contemplating it, as you would expect you will need to practice a little and the best place for this is in the training arena. Once you are confident of having mastered all types of passing take your skills to online tournaments. Having a good range of passing ensures that you become as unpredictable as possible giving you the best chance to succeed

The best tips to win a FIFA 11 PS3 tournament is to practice, practice, practice and ensure you can perform the basics well, in reality a team that can do the basics will often defeat a team who perform a vast array of party tricks. Barcelona are a prime example despite every player being able to perform every ball skill under the sun, they keep it simple and pass the ball. In FIFA 11 the game is the same keep the ball and wait for your opponent to get out of position and vulnerable.
