One method in which many people in the online world like to use for scoring goals is by whipping in crosses from the flanks and then heading or volleying the ball into the net. It can be pretty difficult to stop this as the defending team, given the limitations of the game being played on a video game console. There is no sure way to guard against the opposition crossing the ball and scoring a goal, but there are some ways in which you can lower the likelihood of this happening. Let us tell you about FIFA 11 tournaments online.
One way I like to stop the team I am playing against from whipping in dangerous balls is by closely manning the player in the wide areas who is about to cross. By sticking with him, you will make it less comfortable for him to cross and as a result his crosses will be less accurate. This increases the likelihood of your players getting their heads to the ball first and clearing it away.
Another way I like to prevent crosses coming in from the wide areas is by quickly fouling. This is useful when the opposite team has just broken away and you are short of numbers at the back. Fouling will give you time to get some reinforcements at the back, although you should be prepared to be penalized with a yellow card.
Another way, in which you can defend a cross that is already coming in, is by taking control of one of the players inside the danger area. You should then be on the lookout for an "X" sign which will be placed on the field indicating where the ball will land. You should move towards this sign and then when the ball is about to land, press the shoot button so that the defender clears the ball.
Another situation you may have to face when you playing in a tournament is the dreaded penalty shoot-out. You should know that there is a time lag between when you press the button and when you get a response from the system when playing online. In other words, we can safely say that there is a difference between taking penalty kicks in offline mode compared to taking penalty kicks in online mode.
In FIFA 11, there is a moving indicator where you need to time your pressing of the shoot button so as to get the maximum amount of accuracy. The pointer should land in the green zone so that you can take the best penalty possible.
In online play there is a network latency lag. This means that there will be a delay in the button press response. Put differently, taking a penalty in offline play is very different to taking a penalty in Internet play.
In other words, taking a spot kick in offline mode is different from taking a spot kick in online mode. You should be aware of this and so, when the indicator speed is set to "normal", whilst in Internet mode, you should aim to press the shoot button when the indicator is in the red and orange area on the right hand side of the screen. In order for you to take a good penalty kick the indicator must land in the green area and it should if you press the shoot button quite early.

Passing Can Be Integral To Succeeding In A FIFA 11 PS3 Online Tournament
To win a FIFA 11 PS3 tournament you need to master the basics; shooting, tackling and passing. The most important of all being passing. In FIFA there are various ways in which you can pass the ball and to beat the better the players you need to be able to perform all in the blink of an eye. Doing so will give you a much better chance of winning a tournament online or live.
The easiest pass to play is the short pass which can be achieved by pressing and holding the X button and the Left stick in the direction in which you wish the ball to be played. The longer the X button is held the harder the pass will be played. The practice mode provided in FIFA is an excellent place to learn to play the short pass between team mates.
The next pass to learn is the long pass, this will allow you to bypass opposition players and hopefully create goalscoring opportunities. To play the long pass press and hold the O button, the longer you hold the O button the further your long pass will go. A better use of the long pass however is to use it to switch the play, whilst it can be used to counter attack a better way to do so will be disclosed further on.
One way to open up your opposition is to play a through ball, this can be done by pressing and holding the triangle button. Again the longer the button is held the harder the ball will be played. Timing of the pass is crucial to playing a successful through ball, make sure you practice in the arena to ensure you always spot your strikers making offensive runs.
One-two passes can be helpful to create space for your players, hold the L1 button whilst you play the pass and the passer will make a forward run (hopefully into space) to return the ball to him simply press X again. If your in an advanced position you could try playing a through pass instead of a short pass to release the player behind your oppositions defence.
But by far the best way in FIFA to create goalscoring opportunities is to play the one-two with a lobbed through ball. To do this hold L1 and press X to make the initial pass, the passer will then make a forward run. As the player gets inline with the oppositions defence simply hold R1 and press and hold the triangle button to acquire the right amount of power on the pass to successfully clear the defence and dribble your attacker to the goal for shot.
The training mode in FIFA 11 is the easiest way to practice the skills you need to learn quickly, playing against the AI will also help once you start to get a feel for the game. Make sure you can perform every pass without thinking as this will ensure you are less predictable to your opponent and can attack him wherever he is weakest.
Winning a FIFA 11 PS3 tournament wont be easy but ensuring you keep the ball will be half the battle. Don't be afraid to keep the ball if there is no good pass forward on and don't be afraid to use the keeper make the opposition work to get the ball back and when they get out of position exploit them.
The Fifa 11 PS3 tournament is pretty cool. We would like to tell you more about the Fifa 11 PS3 tournaments right now - we believe you, as a gamer and sports fan will like it.
