Great video, you opened my eyes on some aspects, very good details. Also love that you show your controller, so you can see exactly what you are doing.
I don't know if you're going to read this comment or not but I from deep of my heart thank you for this tutorial. I have been a fan of FIFA since FIFA 11, but I have always sucked. I have always lost against average teams and players because I just could not understand how defending works and what you're supposed to do. Some would call me dumb or slow [and I wouldn't really blame them] because it's literally 7 years of playing the game , but I'm not what you would call a gamer. I play a couple of games a day and that's it. I work 8 hours a day and playing this game is the only thing I really look forward to doing when I clock out. I've seen tons of videos but none of them have helped me improve my defending, BUT this video? I've watched it 5 times and I'm now winning against teams in World Class ( I know it's only the AI but still) and getting great defending stats at the end of every match I play in both FIFA 18 and the new 19 DEMO. Thank you so much for whatever it is that made me understand how defending really works.
Yesss. Great to have you back. Your meticulous attention to detail is appreciated. I struggle in div4 atm but aiming for div2 for fifa19, defending is perhaps my biggest flaw, I will watch this vid a few times then try drill it until it’s instinctive.
Perfect Defending tutorial. Sounds so easy when you watch it: watch your own teammates, make use of your own teammates; watch where the player having the ball is moving, watch his teammates an predict his moves/passes. So you have to watch your player, your teammates and their movements, the ballhandling opponent + the other opponents and their movements all at full gameplay speed simultanously, while predicting moves and thinking ahead. Problem is, when I try to defend like you I end up playing even worse and receiving more goals, cause I simply can't do all the things at the same time you do! This defending is really pro player and you have to be one to master it!
Love these videos, defending is an aspect people don’t want to learn or put the time and practice into it so these videos are rare but so insightful and helpful 😊
I’ve just discovered you by accident and I’m so pleased that I did. My defending is by a long way the worst thing about my game, watching and listening to your principles has been that “eureka! “ moment, I get it now, it makes perfect sense! Cheers sir! Subbed and Notified 😎
i have watched lot of tutorial to this day and i have to admit this is the best tutorial i have ever seen.luckily tumbled upon this video.usually i am too lazy to comment on any video.but to this one i could’nt help myself.thank you.you are a legend.
This was a really nice video, man! Got me thinking over on what defending really is all about. Great video with good explanations and good details! It's time for practising.... ;-)
This is a truly incredible tutorial. Very impressive, thanks for sharing, I will be revisiting this video to try and perfect the technique. Thanks again 👍🏽
your videos are always a gold and enjoyable to watch. Luckily you still make videos ! I was a bit upset when you said you wont make video becoz you will get a job after graduation
Dont ever leave us again :( i have been forced to watch ur old live controller game plays so many times because u rox and i learn so much come baaacccckkk ty for the new content
Great video....I’d love to see an equivalent attacking video! You presented techniques I hadn’t seen in other videos and for lack of a better phrase they seem more “realistic”. Thank you!
Appreciate you make still content. You are by far the best Fifa CZcamsr und very Underrated. Thanks for this tutorial which i needed. Who wants to see a custom Tactics Video with best formations? :)
This is a quality tutorial, much much needed for me. Oh how we miss you so much, looking forward to your passing/manual passing tutorial, passing is hard in 19…. :(
This is what I've been waiting for, I've watched you on twitch so many times and I have been jealous of your defensive skills. When do you use R1 second man press? This was not mentioned in the video.
Miss you Sotie. I revisited this great tutorial again because I have recently become so terrible on Fifa. I keep making endless mistakes and losing games to stupid goals. V upset and frustrated over a game which is silly, but I love fifa and want to be good. Struggling v badly in div6, I try hard and still lose which makes it worse, I am just going to drill defensive techniques today as I know I make a lot of red runs 😩😩😩
This is great advice and not massively hard, the difficult part is pressuring the ball like Soetie says, without dragging everyone out of position and opening spaces for your opponent, i try my best but there always seems to be a pass available for my opponent. My success comes with 4231 as i have more players in defence then they have in attack so i can close the passes and pressure, but when i get the ball i have no options. Lol so frustrating!!!!
fantastic video! didn't know about blocking in the right direction. I've always run in opponent player. thank you for the video, I think, thanks to you, I will improve my defending :)
Great content. Learn a lot from your channel. One of my favouritr pro player. Fifa 19 im struggling on finishing. Need to take some time to press button on driven finish
Awesome video Sotie. I always like your defending techniques. Unfortunately, I am not good yet at FIFA 19 but your video might help me.. Thanks buddy..
Great video! Really very useful! Did u already did a video about how to switch players in defense? I always used right analogic stick, but i saw that you use also the left one. What you suggest? Do you suggest to use both them in the same moment? Thank you :)
Hey, thanks for the very nice video! I would really appreciate an additional video on how to defend high balls/ crosses. I tend to receive way too much goals from those, so i´m wondering about the best timing and which buttons actually to press and the best positioning of the defender. Also which defensive style is the best? Falling back/ high pressure or something else?
Hi great video , love the explanations , can you tell me what Camara setting you wer using whilst the Real Madrid clips wer on fifa 19 , seemed to be a good view to see all pitch, and also , is ther anything you need to change in control settings for the player switching , thanks for your time
I try to do this since fifa 17 but during the game i felt the gameplay was so fast. Unable to analyze or predict next opponent move properly. I hope soon i can really master this technique.
Hi I love the video some very specific details that other videos miss. Do you have a video about team press and when to use it and how often do you use jockey movement?
These are the clips when the predictions work. But people are unpredictable and use a whole lot of different techniques. Sometimes you will predict the pass but the player with pull off a skill move. And try making predictions when the opponent is pulling off tiki taka non stop. Anyways this video certainly had a lot of useful information. Use this info and modify with experience to improve.
I think that all pro's use the same method, the difference is in the aggressiveness, btw very good explanation, I couldn't explain it better, subscribed.
too many details !!!!! really like it ! i'm done with the noobs tutorial ! 1- tacle 2- use jockey ! your video is amazing thank you !!! you have one more subscriber !
What are the pressure/cover buttons to use? Sometimes there is to much space between him and my defender.., btw nice video super Thanks, helps me a lot
Hey Soetie, thanks for the tips and question, I know what you mean by cut passes but my players don’t intercept them (ball goes thru the legs.) any advice?
Believe me guys. Its all about fast player switching and anticipation (Defense is 80% of Fifa) and of course talent. You need to think fast and read the game fast. That’s something you can’t train. Some Humans are just better in something than everbody else. Accept it. You will never be as good as msDossary. If you reach Gold 3-2 you will always reach so. But who cares. There are more important things in life.
The amount of rage in FUT 19 from people who used legacy defending for years is incredible, they rather bitch & whine about having legacy back than just learning to defend manually. Excellent informative video, well done.
Soetie I’m pure struggling to adapt to this and its leading me to make constant mistakes but I know this is the way forward... how do I get a one on one session???
You dont want to be to agressive in this game,iv found that stamina will be a problem in this fifa love the game have early access and just purchased the ultimate edition havnt played fifa since 17 so have alot of rust :') happy fifa everyone
A attacking and dribbling video would be cool. Especially when dealing with aggressive hard tacklers and long ball defensive players . I like to attack down the middle but the ai is too strong this fifa
What’s the best way to switch , L3 or R3 Analog I always play against people who can switch so easily and quickly , I do it and leave players out of position
Great video, you opened my eyes on some aspects, very good details. Also love that you show your controller, so you can see exactly what you are doing.

Brilliant vid. Hopefully I can master it 🙏🏽
Very well put , thanks bro
my god ive been playing this game like a neanderthal i feel so enlightened, subbed...
Darkhan345 😂😂😂I understand you man ....i hv been switching the wrong way all this time
I try to do this since fifa 17 but during the game i felt the gameplay was so fast. Unable to analyze or predict next opponent move properly. I hope soon i can really master this technique.
yeah it takes a lot of concentration cause the gameplay is not always smooth
Hi I love the video some very specific details that other videos miss. Do you have a video about team press and when to use it and how often do you use jockey movement?
Excellent tutorial mate a have a question what formation and tactics do you suggest 2 defend with such excellence 👍👍😲😲
This guy is a BOSS
These are the clips when the predictions work. But people are unpredictable and use a whole lot of different techniques. Sometimes you will predict the pass but the player with pull off a skill move. And try making predictions when the opponent is pulling off tiki taka non stop. Anyways this video certainly had a lot of useful information. Use this info and modify with experience to improve.
I just simply love yours videos!
I think that all pro's use the same method, the difference is in the aggressiveness, btw very good explanation, I couldn't explain it better, subscribed.

Goede tips, super! Keep on going
Soethie Have you using sprint and L2 ? or double press for defending.I can't doing good defending 😩
A great video!
hope to have your analysis soon.. booking one soon
Hi Soetie i saw in 1 of your videos that you use same benq monitor as me, which picture mode or your own monitor settings do you use please?
too many details !!!!! really like it ! i'm done with the noobs tutorial ! 1- tacle 2- use jockey ! your video is amazing thank you !!! you have one more subscriber !
Yeah, FIFA does not have a super slow mode, the slow mode is still too fast for me.
What are the pressure/cover buttons to use? Sometimes there is to much space between him and my defender.., btw nice video super Thanks, helps me a lot
best video I've seen still now
Hey Soetie great vid! What’s the name of your background music?
man u change my mind about how to defender in fifa 19 thank u
Hey Soetie, thanks for the tips and question, I know what you mean by cut passes but my players don’t intercept them (ball goes thru the legs.) any advice?
Nice Tutorial! What camera settings do you use?
leuk om te zien dat er ook andere NL fifa gamers zijn die ook daadwerkelijk goed zijn
Yeah sounds easy on paper, but my mind doesn't work that quick xD
Which do you recommend, tackling with or without Sprint?
Fifa 22 and still help me, come back !
Believe me guys. Its all about fast player switching and anticipation (Defense is 80% of Fifa) and of course talent. You need to think fast and read the game fast. That’s something you can’t train. Some Humans are just better in something than everbody else. Accept it. You will never be as good as msDossary. If you reach Gold 3-2 you will always reach so. But who cares. There are more important things in life.
So good please make more tutorials
Great video
Damn..... So insightful
Lettuce killing it on your soundtrack!
Ur a beast
Nice!
This video is beautiful.
Do you often use manual player switching?
The amount of rage in FUT 19 from people who used legacy defending for years is incredible, they rather bitch & whine about having legacy back than just learning to defend manually. Excellent informative video, well done.
THANK YOU
your expectations and tecnics are too good
Thank you!!!
Soetie I’m pure struggling to adapt to this and its leading me to make constant mistakes but I know this is the way forward... how do I get a one on one session???
You dont want to be to agressive in this game,iv found that stamina will be a problem in this fifa love the game have early access and just purchased the ultimate edition havnt played fifa since 17 so have alot of rust :') happy fifa everyone
A attacking and dribbling video would be cool.
Especially when dealing with aggressive hard tacklers and long ball defensive players .
I like to attack down the middle but the ai is too strong this fifa
What customs tactics n instructions did u use?
What’s the best way to switch , L3 or R3 Analog
I always play against people who can switch so easily and quickly , I do it and leave players out of position
