FIFA Soccer 96 — About this game
FIFA Soccer 96 brings football to a two-button handheld format. The core challenge is reading the pitch: face a teammate before passing, move into open ground and choose a shooting opportunity rather than kicking forward at every touch. Defending asks for a different rhythm, switching to a useful player and moving between the ball and goal. Begin with a short match and learn how the selected player follows your directional input. A few controlled passing moves make the transition between defense and attack easier to understand than a constant chase after the ball.
