Now, there is no point in mastering the art of attacking football on FIFA 16 if you can't defend with similar finesse. The latest edition gives you the tools to stop your opponent with confidence. You can move with greater freedom and you are able to defend as a unit with your back line tracking menacing runs. Backing off with your defenders is unbelievably effective especially with the improvements made to this year's game and as your FIFA opponents get carried away with their chaotic slide tackles - leaving them exposed - you can confidently sit back and defend with composure and class. Defending on FIFA is all about concentration and picking the right players to mark the correct men as they drive at you with force. If you master the defending on the game then you have practically mastered FIFA 16.
