It's more difficult for defenders to recover this year with jockey. The best advice is just stand your ground and don't push defenders out of position. As soon as opponents see you're a aggressive defender they'll just do the controlled sprint and all of a sudden you're behind

Exactly. I flick to the defender closest to the runner and track his run staying goal side. Hold r1 so the AI presses the ball and then try to flick to the defender that's pressing at the right moment to make the challenge.

Had 2-6 in qualis , watched this video and managed to use this video to defend better and clutched the last 2 games. This video is amazing

It’s so annoying this year. I play against noobs but they just run through my defence. I can predict almost everything my opponent is going to do but I still can’t stop it. I try different tactics, right stick switching (which only goes to the right player about 30% of the time) L1 switching goes to the right player about 10% of the time. Somebody needs to make a series where people send gameplay videos of their horrific defending and you could analyse it and tell us where we are going wrong. I think it’s a great idea for a mini series. Please consider it. I have tons of videos of me getting torn apart over and over again. It sucks because I like fifa and find it fun. Most people would tell me just to quit but I want to play the game. I just want to learn how to defend.

Manual switch and doing it at the same moment the oponent passes the ball plus running with the direction of the ball so you don't switch and start running to the oposite way... I can win when I'm 100% sweating there doing this 😂😂😢😂

Great advice Boras thank you brother. Consider myself relatively good but this unit defending and a reset of mindset is exactly what I needed to hear.

I started watching Boras like 2 years ago I think, watching these games and these kinds of videos have made me so much better in rivals, I'ma be a champs threat bc of this defending video on gawd

of all the videos i watched on defending , this one is useful and easier to understand. Thank you Boras

Started watching your videos because of my best friend and they're always fun and entertaining to watch and you learn us alot as well! The best defending video imo. Thanks for all the amazing content you make Boras, keep it up!

Defending is the only part of my game that is lacking, I score a lot and also concede a lot, so I'm looking forward to implementing these tips into my game. Especially the sliding block, it looks like it would be very useful.

@@unknownchristian341 I’m noticing pace off the ball with aggression makes it easy to get the ball. You should try to not pull players out of positions especially center backs because they usually are the best at jockying that’s why if I’m in the box jockying is just much better. If people r using the r1 dribbling on the wing , stick to sprinting until u r either beside them or in front of them and use the jocky button as a “brake” like a car, and if u can get the ball just do a standing tackle. That’s about it for my tips.

Very useful and helpful. Haven't actually used this new knowledge yet as have just watched vid but it's helped me to understand the new defending system and I can see why I'm conceding so many stupid goals now. Will be rewatcjing this video every now n then to refresh the sacred knowledge.

Very helpful. I was getting over ran in some UT games and I couldn’t figure out why 😂 now I know

Big one this! Gonna help a lot of guys there!❤

So far best I've seen and I haven't even played the game yet 😂. Watching vids as its downloadeding for my cb pro club player. Thus I think i have a special pov on it. The tutorials so far have all reminded me of one thing above all, rocket league. In that game, 1v1s defending wise its all about shadowing. So jockeying and staying close enough to put pressure but not fully commit so one single move. Also, all vids so far have favored tactical defense. Another is playing as a unit. Like in rocket league 2v2s, if someone is on the attack and you're both back. The closest one to the atk commits and makes the attacker have to do something. That's when the last one back cleans it up and gets possession. Anyway, I'm excited for it regardless of the comments saying its currently broken.

As stupid as that sounds but I found that not pressing anything, literally just standing in the way while walking, gives the best results in blocking passes or even tackling an opponent. It seems to me that the L2 jockey variations make your player less dense and higher the chance of the ball flying "through" you.

Thank you bro

I'm still not sure if I like the defending more this year or not, but one mentality change for me is, in previous FIFA, jockey is a move that trying to be passive and be patient, it is spammable and low risk, this year's jockey is actually a decisive move , like sliding tackle, where you shouldn't use it unless you have to, or your defenders will break ankle so easily

Thanks man

imagine this year the defending is so bad that I had to look how to defend the first time ever.

Thank you ✌️

Just in time before I started playing today. Happy days.

Thank you

It’s always funny to me watching these guides besides the new mechanics added to the game I’ve been doing all this stuff since FIFA 12 obviously you couldn’t tell the AI when to press that’s gotten way better but I’ve been super good at defense even since FIFA 12. I remember counting how many interceptions I could get and I use to avg about 45-50 a game in vs Division 1 players. Always have loved defense this year it feels a bit trash tho.

Getting back into fifa after 4 years of not playing at all. Gonna get shredded but this helps

Having tried both, i much more prefer tactical. Advanced is only marginally better when played perfectly and is MUCH more prone to error.

Hello Boras, I've given this FC24 a try after disbanding Fifa years ago. In both offence and defence I find my players often just standing still, 0,0 AI, runs or pressure at all. If I try to defence I just do more harm than nothing. I did well in Fifa series before. At 09:08 you're saying to use standing tackle "sometimes". How do take over te ball without doing this? It makes sense why I mess up that often because doing a standing tackle most of the time to take over the ball. Just running up to them ain't working either... So confused. Hopefully you can help me understand this maybe easy basic thing about defending in FC24

The best way to defend is ironically to not defend. Keep the ball and keep it simple. Only attempt stand tackles with anticipate players. You also need to get into the mindset of losing the ball on the dribble than losing the ball on a misplaced pass. The ball travels much faster than your players so losing the ball on a bad pass means your players aren't in shape.

thank you.

I haven't played fifa in 3 years. Coming back to FC24 the first 50 games were tough, I maybe won max 5 to 10 of them, but once you get used to the defending, attacking is extremely easy. Lack of content is what's ruining it for me
