FIFA Academy - Offside Trap
🕑 Added 2020-12-01 08:00:38 +0000 UTCIn today video we over how to use the d-pad Defensive Tactic: Offside Trap.
Now bare in mind, the offside trap is only really used at a higher level, not traditionally to actual bring the defensive line forward to catch an attacker offside, but more so used to bring the defensive live forward to press and be more offensive and to bring defensive line forwards to avoid getting pinned,
Key Notes:
- Press D-Pad Down to activate Defensive D-Pad Tactics, and D-pad Down again Offside trap
- There is a cool down for the offside trap for around 5 seconds, which means you cannot spam press to bring your defensive line to the half-way line (as you could in previous iterations before FIFA 18)
- The initial D-Pad Down activate the Defensive D-Pad Tactics, the second one is to activate the offside trap, the longer you hold down the second D-pad Down, the higher your defensive line will run upwards
- Offside traps to only be used when your opponent is facing away from your goal or taking a heavy touch
- Practice offside traps in-games where you are winning by multiple goals, therefore you create a realistic example (as opposed to vsing a computer) and not risk losing a game
