How to do timed finishing in fifa
Our tutorial showing how to do timed finishing in fifa with video examples. Firstly turn it on in the trainer settings to activate it in game. Then it is the simple process of pressing the shoot button, and then pressing it again when the bars are together in the middle. The timing of the second press needs to be when the bars meet to turn green. Timing of the press is important. If you time it green you will score more. Too early or too late and your shots will be worse than normal.

How to change the trainer settings in FIFA
In an offline game start a match and then pause the game. Then in the trainer section set timed finishing on as shown below. When you play any game offline or online the timed finishing indicator will appear when shooting. When you press shoot in a game you will now notice a bar above a players head.
Which buttons to press for timed finishing
In simple terms timed finishing means pressing the shoot button once for the amount of power then tapping it again at the right time. The difficult part is timing that second tap. Also for those confused in older FIFAs pressing the shoot button twice was a low driven shot. To do a low driven shot in FIFA 21 and higher quickly tap shoot button once.
The timed finish on the second tap of the shoot button should be done just as the player is about to hit the ball. If you hit it right it will be a more powerful shot and if aimed right will be a goal. However press the button too early or too late and the ball could go bouncing into the ground slowly or rocket into the stands. Our tweeted video shows how to do timed finishing so it is green.
Having the indicator switched on for the trainer gives you a bar above the player a bit like the old penalty system. Power up the right amount for the distance and then the press shoot the second time when the 2 bars meet in the middle to show green.
When to use timed finishing in FIFA
You should use timed finishing in FIFA when you have time and space. Usually there isn’t much time to power up shots and then react in time for the 2nd press. This is why timed finishes are easier for long shots and volleys. Finesse shots from outside the box can also use timed finishing for extra power. Time and space give you that opportunity. Use them 20 to 30 yards out from goal especially down the middle where you are more likely to be on target.

Should you use timed finishing in FIFA?
Yes because shots become more accurate. And the great thing about timed finishing is you don’t have to use it. You can switch it off and forget about it. However we advise trying it for long range shots alone. Players with long shot trait hitting a timed finish can score from 30 yards and the keeper will struggle to save it. If you become good at them try finesse shots and volleys around the edge of the box too. In later versions of the game timed finesse shots are OP.
