FIFA 14: 5 Reasons Why The Next Gen Version Will Be The Best Yet

4. More Realistic Defending Of Set-Pieces

Fifa 14 Next Gen2 Tired of being the only member of your team competing for aerial balls? Every gamer will have experienced this flaw down the years, perhaps without even having realised it. The next time you take a corner or a freekick, watch as only one player from your team goes up for the header. Contrastingly, during a real-life game of football, you will normally see a number of defenders or attackers throwing themselves at the ball as it lands in the penalty area from a corner, getting their bodies in the way. This is now conveyed in FIFA 14 with a brand new feature known as 'in-air play', where multiple defenders attempt to head the ball away, making for more sound defensive tactics. It is the addition of this brand-new feature that is going to revolutionise the way set-pieces are taken and defended against, thus giving players a more life-like simulation of the beautiful game.
