How to Use Attacking Runs in FIFA 23

To have a teammate make an attacking run while in possession of the ball, simply press RB or R1. This will send a nearby teammate steaming ahead into space, and give you another option to move the ball further up the field.

This if referred to as ‘Call for Support’ in the game’s Controller Settings menus, but this is what you’re primarily going to be using it for.

When you have multiple runners, the defence is less likely able to predict where you are going to attack them from. It could be using wingers to stretch the backline and make the middle less congested, or beating the offside trap using a speedy striker. By committing numbers forward, you are forcing the defenders to do the same on their end, and mistakes can lead to openings.

Do it effectively, and you will always have enough space to make the next move, be it a shot on goal or another killer pass to create an opportunity.

That’s everything you need to know on how to initiate attacking runs in FIFA 23. If you need more tips, tricks and guides, be sure to check out our other FIFA 23 content on the site.
