how to volley/1st time shot...

[napo_rz]

after pursuing/receiving a lob through pass?

you see I had many nice chances from lob through pass only to found that the receiver tried to knock the ball with their head a.k.a diving header which many times failed miserably...

so how to order them to using their feet instead of their heads?

A lot of it has to do with your timing. Try hitting shoot earlier or later than your normal shot and see what happens.

TBH I tried everything, from early to late press, all resulted in more heading effort than kicking...

Press the shoot button after the ball has dropped below head level. The distance to the ball and body position will determine what happens. Also I think if the controlled player has a high shooting technique and agility, he will be more likely to attempt a volley.
