Can someone give me some tips on controlling the ball in the air?
The manual says to use R2 to control the ball in the air, and in a separate paragraph somewhere(??), it says you can use it to bring the ball down to control it. Is that about it? I find that when I'm playing the game, that I almost never win the ball when it is in the air. What will usually happen is that the opposition team will hoof it down the middle, and usually the computer player is in front of my player and he always seems to head the ball first(either as a pass to another of his teammates), or control it himself. The only times I have found R2 to be useful is when they clear the ball from their box and my guy is the only back there and when I hold R2 down, it brings the ball down to my feet. Am I missing something? Can someone advise me on when to use R2 and when not to?
Also, I would also appreciate any tips on winning headers in front of goal, etc..basically any tips for when the ball is in the air. PES2 is a class game, I love it, but I just can't get to grips when the ball is in the air.
