Hitting a chip shot in FIFA has become especially important this year now that the game's meta favors it. Many users wonder how to hit a chip shot in FIFA, because goalkeepers don't concede goals any other way! Today, we here at Gamer Papers will answer that question for you. How do you hit a FIFA 22 chip shot? What's the chip shot button? When should you use a chip shot? Everything you need to know is right here!

How Do You Hit a FIFA 22 Chip Shot?
Hitting a chip shot in FIFA 22 matters more than ever. Many users go for chips even when they're one-on-one with a keeper still on their line. There are several reasons for this. First, keepers are largely ineffective against chip shots. Once a chip shot is struck, a lot of keepers in FIFA 22 completely fumble it, unlike what we're used to seeing. Second, who doesn't love scoring a chip shot?
Hitting a chip shot is actually simpler than you'd think. Press the shot button together with L1 and you'll hit a chip shot. The shot button is the circle button for classic FIFA players, or the square button for those coming from games like PES.
What Are the FIFA 22 Chip Shot Buttons?
To hit a chip shot, you need to combine the L1 button with O/square (the shot button, depending on your control settings) at the same time.
How Do You Score With a Chip Shot in FIFA 22?
To score with a chip shot, you first need to learn when to hit the shot, and then which positions to hit it from. Honestly, you can chip from pretty much anywhere! The one thing to watch out for is not to under-power the shot. Any chip hit with just 1 bar of power probably won't go in. Even right in front of the keeper, you need at least 1.5 bars. Unless you're going for an eccentric long-range attempt from outside the box, aim for shots under 3 bars of power. When you're one-on-one in the box, try chipping from as much of an angle as possible to catch opposing keepers out!
