I'm fecking shite at defending, it's much harder to bail out your mistakes and opposition strikers don't capitulate in front of goal 100% of the time.

I've gotten used to it on Semi-Pro, winning comfortably and i've notched it up to Professional. Very difficult i've found, still get beaten by top teams, can usually get a result against mid-table sides.

How do you lads defend when the opposition are running at you? I can never fight off the urge to send Rio or Vidic flying out to tackle an onrushing player. Should I just keep the defensive line and hope they run out of gas?
To be hnest I avoid using the slide tckle unless as a lst resort.

It's all about trying to close them down and use the X button to perform the tackle - but even then it helps to be lind up correctly if you want to avoid giving away free kicks.

Looking forward to getting a few games of FIFA in in the league, although it won't be until next weekend. Am back in the UK this week, so no PS3 for me.
