EA Sports FC 24: All Meta Shooting Mechanics Explained

We often see teams that dominate their opponents the entire game but lose due to a lack of proper shooting ability. This is especially true for EA FC 24, where a perfect shooting can often help you completely turn the tide of the game.

However, the situation in the field is changeable, and we need to use different shooting techniques in different finishing situations. Offense doesn’t do much for your team if you can’t capitalize on your chances.

We’ll take a look at the different shooting options you can use and the best environment to perform them. Without further ado, let’s dive right in.

Trivela Shot

The first thing we want to talk about is Trivela Shot, which is the best type of shooting outside of the box this year. But what many people don’t know is that it is also very easy to use in the box. You simply hold L2 and press the circle button to perform Trivela Shot.

Trivela Shot is powerful, but what makes it so great is its curve. Trivela technique involves hitting the ball with the outside of the foot, creating a turning effect. So this is unsalvageable for the goalie.

And for me, the most special thing about Trivela Shot is that it is even very useful for players who are not good at shooting. For example, your defender can shoot from outside the box. But if you take a normal shot with one of your defenders inside the box, the chance of it going in is very low. That’s why I think Trivela Shot is really special.

Regular Shot

The next thing we want to talk about is Regular Shot. You just press the round button to execute it. This is probably the most common shooting technique over the years. Even sometimes you don’t know whether you should take Finesse Shot or Trivela Shot, I can suggest you go straight to Regular Shot.

In addition, mastering Timed Finishing can often bring certain improvements to Regular Shot. If done well, this will increase the power and accuracy of the shot and will almost always get the ball past the goalkeeper. However, if done slightly wrong, the ball may just find its way to the corner flag. Therefore, it will be very important to spend FC 24 Coins to improve the overall statistics of the players.

Power Shot

So the type of shooting we are going to talk about next has been very interesting since this year. It is a Power Shot. Because this year they introduced Power Shot Playstyle, which makes Power Shot better than ever.

You can perform a Power Shot by holding down L1 and R1 simultaneously and pressing the shooting button. This will play an animation and your player will begin charging up a powerful shot. Of course, the obvious drawbacks are that accuracy is greatly reduced, and it takes time to charge up the shot, so your opponent can easily steal the ball from you by sliding in.

Due to the above drawbacks, using Power Shot in the box in EA FC 24 has almost no effect. Therefore, you need to hit the ball from the edge of the box so that you may have more time and space.

Finesse Shot

If you want beautiful curling shots from the edge of the box into the far post, then Finesse Shot is your best choice. You can release this Finesse Shot by pressing R1/RB + O/B. They’re also very effective at close range, allowing you to deflect the ball around the charging goalkeeper and into the back of the net rather than shooting it directly at him. It’s really about getting the timing of execution right.

Chip Shot

Next up is Chip Shot. This is one of the most difficult shooting techniques to perform in FC 24, as it requires the player to have near-perfect strength and timing. Of course, you can also choose to purchase the appropriate FC 24 players directly.

Chip Shot is best used in one-on-one opportunities with charging goalies. At this point, you must press L1/LB + O/B in the fraction of a second before the goalkeeper is about to touch the ball. It’s crucial to stay calm and not hold down the shot button for too long, as this will not only send the ball past the goalkeeper, but also the goal posts.

Low-Driven Shot

The last type of Shooting is last year’s Low-driven Shot. Like most techniques in EA Sports FC 24, executing a Low-driven Shot is an extremely simple process.

First, run towards the goal with the ball, then tap to shoot to activate Low-driven Shot. When the shot energy bar appears, try turning it to a quarter. If you can do this, whichever player you control will take a Low-driven Shot.

But executing Low-driven Shot consistently can be tricky. If there is not enough power behind the ball, the goalkeeper will most likely save the ball. If the force is too great, the ball will lift off the ground and fall directly into their glove.

However, once you master Low-driven Shot, it’s one of the most effective ways to score points.

Well, that’s all there is to know about the shooting type in EA Sports FC 24. Hopefully, these tips will help you win the game beautifully. Good luck!
