But although many variables will dictate whether or not you will be able to score during each attempt, knowing the proper technique will allow you to boost your chances by a mile. Here’s how to score free-kick goals in eFootball 2025.

How to score free kicks with left-footed players in eFootball 2025

When taking around 20 to 25-meter frontal free kicks, we were able to score consecutively by first aiming at the right leg of the third member of the wall (left to right). Once you do that, perform a kick with around 60% power and immediately hold the left analog stick right/down. For a better look at the angle of the shot, check the image below.

Another sure way to score can be done by aiming the ball between the second and third members of the wall (right to left) before performing a kick with around 60 to 70% strength and holding the left analog stick down/left. With this kick, the ball won’t curl as much from the get-go, and instead, it will head straight to the upper right portion of the net.

When attempting any of the free kicks above, I highly recommend using players specialized in set pieces, such as Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, and Roberto Carlos. When on your desired player’s screen, you can check out their prowess by their Set Pieces and Curl stats.
