Free kicks present a fantastic opportunity to score a goal efficiently. However, mastering these kicks is essential to successfully get the ball in the net. Let’s explore how to score free kicks in FC 25 and ensure we capitalize on scoring opportunities.
How to Score Free Kicks in FC 25
When awarded a free kick, the first crucial choice is deciding which player will take the kick. Ideally, you want to select a player with a strong combination of the following attributes:
- Free Kick Accuracy
- Curve
- Shot Power
Players who excel at taking free kicks include Lionel Messi, Dani Parejo, Vincenzo Grifo, Neymar, and James Ward-Prowse. While these players are ideal for your free-kick strategy, you may not have them in your squad. If that’s the case, consider training (or acquiring in Ultimate Team) a player who possesses a good blend of these skills, especially if you wish to improve your free-kick scoring ability.
When aiming your free kick, aim slightly higher than usual. Remember, you can add both power and curve to your shot to complement the skills of the player you’ve chosen.
