hey everyone welcome back to my Channel today we'll be talking about defending tips and tricks in athlete ball 23 mobile defending can be a bit challenging in this game but with the right techniques you can shut down your opponents and improve your gamma play so let's get started tip number one positioning positioning is key in defending you need to position your players in such a way that they can cut off passing lanes and intercept the ball one thing you can do is to keep your defenders in between the ball and your goal this way you
can block any shots that your opponent takes and force them to make a mistake to do this you must press the match up button then close the pass angle with your joystick in this example my opponent retrieves the ball with Salah and I know exactly that if he wants to continue advancing he will have to pass the ball to his Midfield here so while keeping my finger on the match-up button I come to cut off the passing Lane then I passed a ball to my Striker to score the goal yeah tip number two don't move
your Defenders out of his position maintaining defensive shape is crucial for defense let me explain if you move you Defender out of his position for example too much forward he will leave the Gap behind that will allow the opponent to penetrate the open saps which can be quite dangerous let's look at another example when my midfielder receives the ball the two opposing Central Defenders who are supposed to protect the back line immediately apply pressure on my ball carrier which leaves a relatively open space to explore and it becomes easier to score down this defensive sequence
to see how not pulling a player out can be beneficial for you the key is to focus on the behavior of the two Defenders here as you can see I keep repositioning The Defenders while pushing them back which simply avoids giving careless space eventually a decision must be made since Helen made a bad touch I can apply pressure and regain possession of the ball remember to not take your central midfielder or Defender on the left side towards the right side but instead switch to their teammate who is designated to defend on the right side by
doing this it will allow you to maintain your defensive shape and force the opponent to make mistakes tips number three double pressing with the double pressing you can apply additional pressure on the opposing team to do this you need to push the pressure or match up button upwards when you press this button a green arrow will appear below the player which will automatically apply extra pressure to the player with the ball for you double pressing is useful when you want to apply extra pressure especially in defense just before the penalty area it is tempting to
use it all the time but do not do it this allows you to quickly put players out of position creating many dangerous spaces behind the defense instead use this command to put pressure on the ball carrier and manually control your second player to cut off passing Lanes I recommend using double pressing more often near your own box which will help you defend successfully [Music] tips number four player switching player switching refers to the ability to change control from one player to another on your team while defending this is an essential feature for any player who
wants to effectively control their defensive play to switch players you just need to tap on the switch button here it is also important to adjust a cursor change to manual in your settings this will allow you to have complete control over your players let's see an example when you see an obvious pass make sure to switch to the nearest player to intercept the opposing attacker face it is important to master player switching as it allows you to anticipate and respond to the movements of the opposing team by quickly switching between players you can better position
your Defenders smart attacking players and intercept passes this can make a significant difference in your defensive strategy and help you prevent gold tips number five use Dash and press Bowden the dash and press button is a defensive move that allows your player to quickly close the gap and press an opposing player who is attempting to dribble past or make a move past your player when you press the dash and press button your player will make a quick Dash forward towards the opponent with the ball if timed correctly your player can intercept the ball or disrupt
the opposing player's movement forcing them to make a mistake or lose control of the ball in this example the opposing attacker receives the ball on the wings and by holding down the dash and press button I managed to catch up to him and regain possession of the ball this move is particularly effective when used in combination with the contain button which allows your player to maintain close proximity to the opposing player making it more difficult for them to make a successful dribbler move so there you have it some tips and tricks to improve your defending
