Free Kicks

I have two questions for everyone.

First Question: Is there anyone in the game who can take a free-kick like C.Ronaldo in real life, obviously apart from himself. I want someone who can spank the ball on target instead of trying to curl it.

Second Question: Who do you have on your free-kick duty?

re: Free Kicks

Pirlo can "spank the ball".

I think most people go for hitting it straight into corners instead of curling it around the wall. I've found curling to be akward and hard to judge.

re: Free Kicks

Hitting it powerfully towards the keeper occasionally forces a save and can be dangerous. Otherwise i'm pants at Free kicks...

re: Free Kicks

It seems that all my players in my Arsenal team try and and sidefoot it from a free-kick, instead of what I would prefer, the laces strike.

This is the closest I have come to a rocket

P.S: It's the second video on there, the 2-0 one.

But as you see, he still hit it with the side of his foot!
is there any player you know of that strikes it with his laces from free-kicks?

re: Free Kicks

How exactly do you curl the ball when taking a free kick?

Just move the left stick to whatever side you want to curl the ball to.
Hope this helps
