basic guide to diving

ok here it is some people dont belive u can consistantly pupp a dive off well u can i have tried it and found i can win a free kick or a penalty its all about timing and common sense.

i read on the other diving post some people said that they felt it was just a waste of an attack i would have agreed before as i never got anything just a yellow card when i tried it but i tried different methods and found how it works.

first off i use ps3 so a dive is performed by pressing L1 + LR + R1

if u dive in the middle of no where u will be booked meaning if theres no player near u for 3 yards u will never win anything just a yellow card chance of u getting anything is so silm so dont try that.


if u try diving when running in the box with a player beside u u still wont get nothing so here is the best method to try this has been sucessfull for me .


get the ball with a fairly fast player run past a defender if u can then slow down a bit untill hes rite behind u he will now pull your shirt if u time it right when he is pulling your shirt u can go down and win a penalty or a free kick with pretty decent sucess sometimes u may get booked but its all about the right time in which u do it.

another thing u can try with this is keep holding r1 dont let go then press L1 AND L2 togther so its all in one movement it needs to be a split second action u need to be not taking time pressing buttons u need to get it excatly rite to win anything.

u can also hold in L1 AND L2 to dribble slow get ahead of a defender then press r1 at the right time

to win anything there needs to be contact from the defender theese methods work


if a defender puts in a tackle u can dive just like u can in real life u can choose to go down

i noticed someone said wouldnt it be good if u had the option of going down well u do just dive at the right time i will get it .

if the defender slide tackles u dive just as hes comming in again timing is everything

if they tackle u with a foot in to win the ball u can dive and make it look worse.

if u just dive in the middle of no where u will only dive one way forward and u wont get nothing but if u dive

with contact there is several ways u can go down making it look a lot worse always make sure there is contact then go down sliding tackle shirt pulling if u want to practise go to training and formation press start to change sides and select participation and put one or 2 defenders on vs your full team u can then get used to it and time it right

ive noticed the harder the game level the harder it is to get a sucessfull dive but again time it right u will have a high chance of sucess i have won a number of pks and fks got defenders sent off ect and booked

one person said it was a waste of an attack in the other thread well i would have agreed again but if u can win a penalty and get their best defender sent off then its not a waste its a great advantage




just try different things make sure theres contact and time it right u will get it if u time it right practise it a few times

u may get booked if u do its no big deal its worth it

but ive found i can consistantly win something with just the right timing and i usually find if i dont win anything its just cause i didnt time it right


i only practised diving really last night for a few hours and came to theese ideas and methods its not rocket science

maybe others can add their views and maybe more methods or how to win a pk or fk

I noticed a perfect situation for diving... When u get a throw in throw it to a player, dont turn just let the defender jocky your back and then press to dive....of course i was very disappointed when i got booked, its a joke it looks real, like the defender pushed you down but no, not in pro...

yeah i gopt a free inside my own area before too and there was noone near me but i also got a load of yellow cards other times when i tried it so it just isnt worth it very low sucess if theres noone near u

i like to keep attacks going too but u cant get a better advantage than having their best defender sent off lol and a penalty

what i dont understand is......

1 - if you have to run passed a player and then slow down so he catches you up for you to win a penalty, why dont you just shoot?? why bother gettin a penalty if you are through on goal

2 - your grammer :)

Is it the same in this one as in 2008 where if you dive in your own area, nothing gets given because they cant do indirect free kicks inside the area? if you see what I mean

Pro 2008 was crap for that

Erm slightly incorrect, if you dived & got the freekick it would be for a foul & would be a direct freekick. Also you can have indirect freekicks in your own area, offsides happen in the area all the time & these are indirect.

I managed to pull the first successful one off yesterday. I was playing an online friendly and was already 2:0 up when I got into the box but had a bad angle to shoot and was chased by 2 defenders, so I thought "what the hell, let's give it a try" and it worked... :)
