CONTROLS, TIPS AND TRICKS
MANUAL FOR FIFA 2007
KEYBOARD CONTROL KEYS
Legend:
DK = Directional Keys (Up, Down, Left, Right Arrows)
L = Left (refering to the position of the player: the left of the player)
R = Right (the right of the player)
F = Forward (the direction the player is facing)
B = Backward (the opposite of forward)
(L, R, F, B are just directions, use DK to move your player in these directions)
Attacking Keys (when you attack):
Press Q+DK to activate player runs.
Press W+DK for through ball.
Hold E+DK to run.
Use A+DK for lob pass/cross (with power meter). Also used to throw in the ball from the outside position.
Press S+DK to pass.
Use D+DK to shoot (with power meter) or to clear the ball if you are in your own 11511w225l half. Hold D, for head/volley kick, before the player receives the incoming ball.
Press Z+DK for dummy moves.
Press C to control the pace or to cancel your last move.
Use Shift+DK for dribbling/first touch.
Defending Keys:
Hold Q to call in second defender and for pressing.
Hold E+DK to run.
Press A (+DK optional) for sliding tackle.
Press S to control another player.
Press D (+DK optional) for conservative tackle/clear the ball.
Hold C to slow down your player (pace control).
Goalkeeper Keys:
When the goalie holds the ball, press S to pass the ball with the hand to a close player. Press W to put the ball down. Press A or D to kick the ball.
Hold W to make the Goalie come out for the ball (Goalkeeper charge).
Press D to clear the ball.
Lay-off Shot Keys:
Press E then the DK to change the kick-taker player. Look at the player abilities to select the best kick-taker.
Press A to cross.
Press S for a driven ball.
Press D to shoot the ball (with Power Meter). If you want to add curl to the ball you have to press D then quickly press Shift+DK.
Press C to call in second player.
Hold C and press D to shoot with the second player.
When you defend a free-kick you can press W to make the wall jump. You can also press D to let a player from the wall run towards the kick-taker before the ball is kicked but after the whistle has blown.
Corner/Indirect Free-Kick Keys:
Press E then the DK to change the kick-taker player.
Press A to cross the ball inside the box (with Power Meter).
Press S to pass the ball to a close player.
Press D to shoot the ball (with Power Meter). If you want to add curl to the ball you have to press D then quickly press Shift+DK. This is the first time since Fifa 2002 when you can actually try to score with a direct shot from corner, because you can add curl to the ball (anyway, it is still very hard to do this, but I have done it 3 times).
Press C to call in second player.
TIPS&TRICKS
Dribbling Tips&Tricks:
When your player is going forward (when you hold F), tap twice Shift or hold Shift and tap twice F for Overstep dribbling.
When your player is going forward (when you hold F), release F and hold Shift while tapping L+R or R+L for Sidestep dribbling.
When your player is going forward (when you hold F), release F and hold Shift while tapping L+F+R or R+F+L for Elastico (Ronaldinho Flic-Flac) dribbling.
When your player is going forward (when you hold F), release F and hold Shift while tapping B+F for Filck-Up dribbling.
When your player is going forward (when you hold F), release F and hold Shift while tapping L+B+R or R+B+L for Rainbow dribbling.
When your player is going forward (when you hold F), release F and hold Shift while tapping B+L+F or B+R+F for Roulette (Walking on the ball) dribbling.
When your player is going forward (when you hold F), release F and hold Shift while tapping B+A(cross)+L or B+A(cross)+R for Rabona Cross.
Attacking Tips&Tricks:
When holding Q, press W+DK for lob through ball. You can use this effectively when your receiver is not closely marked or the opponent is positioned behind the receiver. You can also use this instead of crossing with A, but you have to be careful because the goalie may easily collect the ball. Anyway, if you use this type of cross you can score easy goals.
When holding Q, press D+DK for lob shot. This is very useful when you are 1 on 1 with the Goalkeeper, inside the box.
When holding Q, press S+DK then press S again for 1-2 pass. This is most useful when you are trying to lose an opponent.
When you want to pass and there are more players on the same direction you can tap S to pass the ball to the closest team-mate. Press S to pass to the second closest team-mate or hold S to pass the ball to the furthest team-mate.
Tap twice A+DK for low cross. You can use this when there are less opponent players inside the box. To take an early cross hold Q the press A+DK.
When running, hold C and then press S+DK for trick pass. This way you will disguise you intention. You can use this in the same way for through pass (W+DK), lob pass/cross (A+DK) or shot (D+DK).
Before receiving the ball, hold E and press Shift+DK to immediately kick the ball forward and run after it. You can use first-touch control to accelerate the game or get past defenders. First-touch playing is making the game faster. If you can control it don't be afraid to use it.
When holding E, press Shift to accelerate. You can use this when you are in lots of space, with no opponent standing in front of your player, but don't get to close to the goalie because he may collect the ball without having a chance to shoot.
Press D, then immediately press S+DK to fake a shot. This is very effective if used properly (you will make the Goalkeeper and eventually some of the defenders go the wrong way).
The easiest way to get past an opponent is the DK dribbling. Don't forget, when you try this you don't have to run all the time. Try to simulate you are going left (while running slow), then go right and in the same time press E. You should practice this in order to get it right.
Defending Tips&Tricks:
You must make a lot of midfield pressing to get the ball from the opponents. When the ball is in the midfield you shouldn't slide for the ball. You just have to hold Q and to try to deposes your opponent with a conservative tackle.
When an attacker comes towards you hold C then try to tackle him (press D or A). Holding C will allow you a better control on your moves, but you can't use this if you have to run after the attacker.
When the opponent lobs the ball forward you can press A or S for a head/volley kick or press D to clear the ball. Tap D to try making an interception (to stop the ball on your chest).
If you have no other option to stop the opponent attackers then hold W to charge the goalkeeper. Release the key when you think it's time for him to make a save or just go all the way to make a sliding tackle. Be careful because the attacker may try a lob shot. You can also hold W to make your goalkeeper catch/clear incoming crosses.
Use Q key when you are defending. If your marking team-mates are too far from the opponent players hold Q and they will make pressing. This helps you to act more quickly when an opponent receives the ball. Used careful, this tip could let the opponent attackers stay off-side.
Defending Corner Tips:
When you gave away a corner, it's easy to defend if you know how. Press S until you control the right defender, then you should hold on W (to charge the goalkeeper) and in the same time press D+DK to clear the ball with a defender. You can also try to move your defender to the near post then let him come out to clear the ball by pressing D.
Use E key to move your marker faster.
Tactics Tips:
Use NumPad Keys to change your tactics during the game.
To change the offensive tactics press:
2 - Counter Attack
4 - 3rd Man Release
6 - Wing Play
8 - Box Overload
To change the defensive tactics hold Q then press:
2 - Pressing
4 - Flat Back
6 - Offside Trap
8 - Zonal Defending
To change your mentality, use 5 key. I suggest the attacking mentality.
