Set Pieces

Set Piece refers to when the ball is returned to open play after a stoppage/foul. Examples of Set Pieces include, Free Kicks, Corners, Penalty Kicks, etc.

Short Free Kick

When fouled next to the outskirts of the opponent's Penalty area, you can be awarded a Short Free Kick

In a Short Free Kick, you can create some incredible trajectories based on your Swipe Gesture. 

Side Spin: Swipe Sideways and draw a trajectory Around the Wall, to apply Side Spin, curling the ball around the wall and on goal.

When finding yourself in a Free Kick situation against your opponent, there are a few actions you can take to try and block the shot.

Wall Rush: You can have a single player in your wall get ready to rush once the ball is kicked.
