guys, i just cant score goals from headers in we9..ive tried almost everything, i mean, using supercancel to get advantage of the defenders, crossing using 2x O , i mean almost everything, i just cant get my strikers to header the ball..and when i do i usually head it into the moon!!
does anyone have any good tip for me?
if so please tell me
thanx!
Note: In these examples I am crossing from the wing as I run near the sideline. Most of my crosses occur as I approach the box all the way to the end line. I use passing TYPE 5, so when I cross I have to press
+
Crossing relies alot on timing. You can't just cross whenever your player(s) are in the box. Look how they are positioned relative to the defenders. For example if you have two players in the box, running to right side of screen, one near post and one far post, and the far post player is slightly ahead of the defender, press
and the analog stick/d-pad to the right. You have to make sure that there is not another player higher up or you will pass to him, since the far post player is then the middle player. WE only allows you to pass to the closest and farthest player using
auto crossing. I haven't tried this yet, just thought of it now, but maybe by pressing down and
you can hit the middle player. Just a thought.
Another key is trying to get off a clean cross. If you are marked tightly on the wing use changes in speed to gain space. Let go of
for a second and then press again. Use
, release, then press
. There are many variations.
As far as using
, I only use it if my player is outpositioned once the cross comes in. If the pass is accurate enough I dont press it. I'll give you an example of when it is most effective for me. Let's say I get a cross in heading for the box, but my player is behind the defenders. I'll press
, which allows me to charge toward the ball. Many times I've broken through the defenders to get a clean header.
Once you're able to get crosses in to the desired player you have to actually get the header to go where you want. Most of the time I press right or left, depending on the side. Or I press diagonal down and right or left. Its hard for me to explain exactly, because most of the time its instinct or reaction.
So my biggest tip, then, is to use the analog stick/d-pad in conjunction with
to hit your players. In general press up to reach a player higher up in box; down for player lower in box; right if player is ahead of defender; left if behind defender. You can also try diagonals. For example press diagonal upper right if player is higher up and ahead of defender. Sometimes if the crosser is lined up with the player in the box, I only press
the appropriate amount of times.
Now that I've improved my crossing about a third of my goals come from headers. I can now spot out a player and cross directly to him, providing a great goal scoring opportunity. Hope that helps. Good luck.
for heading.
