How To Score Goals in EA FC 24 With a Power Shot?

There are two difficulties associated with this shot. While a Power Shot has incredible force behind it, this shot is tough to control. Moreover, the animations take longer to load, making it possible for defenders to block you quite easily. Certain tips and tricks will help you to score more goals with this shot type.

  • Use cards with Power Shot+: Footballers with this playstyle take less time to complete the animation of a power shot and shoot more accurately. Naturally, chances of success increase as the defenders get less time to block.
  • Practice against AI: whenever you play against AI-controlled opponents, try to spam this shot. While you might not always succeed, doing so will give you an idea about when to perform it in the first place.
  • Tweak the settings: You can change the Power Shot zoom from the in-game settings. I feel that turning it off will significantly help you to score more efficiently.

Ultimately, every technique in EA FC 24 requires a lot of practice and experience. Don’t be shy to try it out, and if you love Ultimate Team, some excellent SBCs are currently active. Both the Henrikh Mkhitaryan TOTS and Trinity Rodman TOTS are great items, which perform very well on the current meta.
