Zona Marking Fifa online 3

Zonal marking is a defensive strategy where defenders cover an area of the pitch rather than marking a specific opponent. If an opponent moves into the area a defender is covering, the defender marks the opponent. If the opponent leaves this area, then marking the opponent becomes the responsibility of another defender.
In FIFA Online 3, it is one of the most effective tactics for defence, allowing your players to mark an opponent without having to follow him all around the field. Unless your opponent owns a world class or legendary player (in this case you should play man marking), the optimal strategy for you is to do zonal marking

1. Strategy

Positioning must be set at [Organized]. Under the Defence section, every slider needs to be set below 50, to make sure your players can cover their teammates.

2. Formation

Any classic formation with 4 defenders can make use of this strategy: 4-4-2, 4-5-1, etc.

3. In the match

The biggest advantage of zonal marking is its flexibility. When the team regains possession of the ball, players are still in their positions and can start an attack more quickly.

However, zonal marking requires 4 defenders in your home side, as well as some mid-fielders for support. Therefore, the most suitable attacking strategy is to play long or through pass and counter-attack once you regain possession.

For defence, managers need to ensure that no gaps are left in the defensive coverage. Zonal marking is more difficult when defending set pieces such as free kicks and corners, and you should switch over to man marking in these situations. (Hint: make use of those strategy shortcuts to quickly change defensive tactics)

To play zonal marking, managers will need players with good positioning skills. Your defenders and midfielders don’t need to have good pace, but good marking and tacking attributes are a must. For strikers, as always, pace and reaction are very important.
