DEFENSIVE MECHANICS
The primary purposes of tackling are to dispossess an opponent of the ball, to stop the player from gaining ground towards goal or to stop them from carrying out what they intend.A slide tackle is completed with one leg extended to push the ball away from the opposing player.Players can use the slide tackle button to perform the move.
Intercepting involves stealing the ball from your opposition. This could happen when you: get in the way of a pass or a dribble.
Blocking the line of shot is when a player simply covers a certain angle with his body between the ball and the opponent. Getting into this position allows a player to pressure the opponent in possession of the ball.
