Knowing how to set up what angle and power is vital for increasing your chances of scoring. You should also make sure you are equipped with the right players in your squad.
That said, you can use this as a guide to improve this area of your EA FC 24 gameplay.
How to Take EA FC 24 Corners
To take good EA FC 24 corners, you need to:
- Aim the ball direction towards the penalty spot inside the box. You do this by moving the Left Stick (LS) to the right of the default starting angle
- Once you are ready to launch the ball into the box, switch to your best receiver of the ball using LB/L2
- Run toward the penalty spot with your selected player shortly after pressing X/Square to release the ball
- Hold B/Circle and aim your LS to aim your header towards the goal
Something you do not need to change is the curve (this is done with the RS) on the corner, no matter who is taking it.

The amount of power should be between two and a half to three bars for both the corner kick and the header. This can be found highlighted on the bottom left of your screen in-game.
A general tip for EA FC 24 corners is that you should have a left-footed player taking the right-side corners and a right-footed player taking a left-side corner. This is because it creates the necessary direction to perform the correct delivery.
To do this, you need to:
- Load into EA FC Ultimate Team
- Scroll to the club using RB/R2
- Enter the club, then enter the squad
- Press the Left Stick (LS) and scroll to Custom Tactics
- Head over to the Roles section
- Click the Left Corner/Right Corner and click your desired player

An example is if the goalkeeper is closer to the penalty spot, aim the ball towards the small box with a power of two bars. As you understand how different the situations work you will learn which areas and runs you need to make.
