Fifa 2009 - Free Kick Techniques?

Question

I'm a fairly long-term fan of the Fifa series, having owned various Fifa titles over the years however if there is one thing that I just can't seem to get right, it's free-kicks on goal.

No matter what I seem do, they either go skyward, or are so lacking power that the goalkeeper has so much time to react that he easily saves it.

Any tips would be great!

Answer

Most of it is just practicing the timing of your button presses. If your timing is near-perfect the ball will go where you want it to.

If you are unsure of your ability to take the shot with proper timing, aiming a bit more inside the posts rather than at the extreme corners could help keep your shot on target, especially if you put curve on the ball.

Also, if you can't get the timing quite right for power, it's better to undershoot the mark rather than overshoot it. An underpowered shot should at least stay on-target, giving your attempt some hope of finding the net. An overpowered shot is practically guaranteed to miss.
