FIFA 13: 10 Great Tips For Scoring Goals

2. Front Post Flick-Ons

One of the simplest ways to score a goal in FIFA 13 is to use the wings to build play and create chances by crossing balls into the box. But gone are the days when an Alan Shearer type would be climbing in the six yard box to bullet a header past the prone 'keeper, because that is no longer the most effective way to score from a cross. Instead it's all about the near post flick-on, and winning balls to knock down to an attacking player running in at the far post, who will then be gifted the perfect opportunity to make the net bulge, no excuses.
