Through The LegsI tend to save this move for moments when I know I can really make it count, as once I’ve done it a couple of times in a game most opponents will start to anticipate it and intercept the ball as it runs through, so I don’t waste it on one-on-one situations out wide or far from my opponent’s goal. I think the perfect time to go for this is when my striker is receiving the ball with just the last defender for company, because if I get it right then I’ll be in on the keeper.
All you have to do is hold RB or R1 just before the ball gets to you, which will make your player dummy it through his own legs, then be ready on the left stick and sprint button to turn and run on to the pass.
All of the tips we’re looking at this week work better the more aggressive your opponent is, as they rely on their impatience to win the ball back creating the space for you to turn and get away, but this one is perhaps the most effective when facing a player like that. There is almost no chance of recovery for the defender as long as you’ve put plenty of pace on the initial pass. Don’t go for this move if the pass is weak, as you won’t put enough distance between the defender and the ball after you’ve dummied.
