FIFA 2001 Major League Soccer Hints (PS2)

FIFA 2001 Major League Soccer is a video game that was developed by EA Canada and was published by Electronic Arts, Inc.

The game was launched on the original PlayStation, the PlayStation 2 home gaming console from Sony and the Windows powered PC.

The title arrived in late 2000.

The game can be classed as a sports simulation that was created using the official licenses from a number of major leagues, allowing player to see the real life players and their stats and to play on simulated real life stadiums.

GAMEPLAY HINTS

Bypass opposing players

Pause game play, go to the options menu and choose "Side Select." Switch to the opposing team and resume game play. Get the ball with a defender or attacker, then hold R1 and shield it. Keep R1 held, and pause game play. Go to "Side Select" and switch back to your original team. Whenever that player gets the ball, he will shield it, allowing you to pass him and score.

Easy goals

When you get the ball, try and get past the defenders by sprinting (tapping Triangle). When the goalie is going up to you, press X and the ball will bounce back off the goalie, allowing you to easily score a goal.

Gather the ball in mid-field and make a run towards the goal. When you are home free, the moment you see the goalie charging, tap Up, Down, Circle and you should score a goal.

Choose a player with the ball and sprint towards the goalie. As you get close to the goalie, press L2 to juggle the ball into the air and over to him. If timed correctly, the goalie will try to get the ball and miss the grab. No one will now be defending the goal. Note: If it is pressed too early, the goalie will catch the ball in midair and kick it to centerfield.
