There appears to be a bug affecting Advanced Defending, specifically with shoulder tackles, seal outs, and the Bruiser+ playstyle. At this time, these defensive actions do not trigger under any circumstances.
When using Advanced Defending, pressing X on PlayStation — even in the perfect situation for a seal out or shoulder tackle — produces no result. The player simply does nothing at all. Similarly, when using Tactical Defending, pressing Circle also fails to execute a shoulder tackle or seal out in scenarios where it clearly should.
In addition, the Bruiser+ playstyle icon never activates when pressing X, even with players who have the trait, and even in ideal conditions and timing. This makes the playstyle effectively unusable.
Currently, the only way to regain possession in these situations is by walking into the ball, which is not how the mechanic is intended to function. Seal outs, shoulder tackles, and Bruiser+ activations never occur, regardless of positioning, timing, or player attributes.
This strongly suggests that a bug is preventing these mechanics from working as designed. Since Advanced Defending is a key system for competitive play, addressing this issue would be important to restore intended defensive functionality.

We have paid €100 and we are still in beta!! 🤦🏽♂️
I know right
I'm not asking for assisted defending i find the ai fine as it is atm but this needs to get fixed the shoulder tackles is non existent it feels like x button is literally useless
.
yes, somehow alpha,beta,gamma,delta testers DIDN'T NOTICE that such important future didn't work in this game........crazy......madness............
why is this still not addressed
Pure insanity
This makes the Game for me unplayable. This must be fixed with X and O defending.
exactly, widget spinner lol, and also AI for fullbacks is sooooo bad, they create onside for no reason for your opps.
Feels more Like Basketball, there is no Bodycheck or something like a real Tackling in the Game.
question is HOW DID THEY MISS IT? just HOW??How can you not notice it through the alpha,beta,gamma,delta testing phases??? Insanity
You run with Virgil van Dijk near to a 1,55cm little female player and he can‘t stick his Body between her and the Ball to win the fight… makes no sence for me
Push
Push - this is a scandal and must be fixed
Push, I used to body people so hard in FC24 with Bruiser+ and I miss it so much
It‘s part of football that u use your Body in Defense to get the Ball. I Hope ea sees this.
This Must be fixed for Circle tackling in tactical defending, too.
yep, after some testing i've found out that bruiser+ shows up above players on corners for no reason.....LMAO
im guessing its because they removed the playstyle from defending category and it kinda messed it up aand glitched it
In the new patch they didn‘t fix it so next patch must be come asap!!!
