What's up with the long throw-in?

[Bendit]

What have Konami done with the long throw? Is there a trick to get the throw to stay low, so as not to go into near-earth orbit? There is enough time to bake a cake before the ball can be played for goodness sake. I have learned the hard way that using a long throw anywhere near my goals is a great way to give the AI a free goal. It has plenty of time to run perfectly underneath, win control and 1-1 the keeper for a goal.

Am I missing some technique? What happened to the power bar of previous PES long throws?

I've completely switched over to the right-stick for long free kicks and throws. LB+Right stick for high/stronger throw. Sometimes inaccurate but i'm starting to get the hang of it.

Ok cheers. I don't have a right-analogue-stick though so I shall have to make do maybe, unless someone know another method.
