EA Sports FC 24: How to Do a Finesse Shot

What’s the Finesse Shot Anyway?

For those of ya still getting your feet wet, the finesse shot’s like that sneaky move to curve the ball, making it kiss the net in the far corner while the goalie’s left looking clueless. Think of it as putting some swag on your shot!

When to Use in FC 24 & Controls

The finesse shot is clutch in the right situation, but it’s not your go-to move every time. You gotta have a clear shot on goal and enough space to set it up. Don’t try to finesse it if you’ve got defenders all up in your grill or if you’re too far out. Save it for those sweet spots when you’re one-on-one with the keeper or have a clear angle on the net.

Depending on your platform, the controls are a bit different, but it’s all about holding down that special button while you shoot. For Xbox peeps, you’re gonna hold RB and shoot with B. PlayStation players, hold R1 and shoot with Circle. And for you PC gamers, hold D and left click to shoot.

Pro Tips

Not every player on the pitch can finesse like a pro. Look for those dudes with the high finishing and curve stats. They’ll pull off those sweet, sweet curves.

Before you get fancy, make sure you’re in the prime spot. Around the edge of the penalty box is golden.

Don’t just throw finesse shots like you’ve got unlimited ammo in a battle royale. Wait for that sweet spot when the goalie is slightly out of position, and you’ve got a clear path…

Wait for that sweet spot. Release at the perfect moment when your player’s about to kick. Don’t rush; finesse is an art, not a race.

Keep practicing, and soon you’ll be finessing shots like it’s second nature.

Look, finesse shots ain’t just about scoring; they’re about scoring with style… Every time you finesse that ball into the net, it’s like saying, Yeah, I did that. What’s good??
