1How to nutmeg in Footagent

Some defenders open their legs as you run at them. That is your chance: swipe down and the ball goes between their legs while your player runs around them.

Make one short, clear swipe per move and lift your finger between moves; a diagonal counts as the stronger direction.

2The other one-finger skills

  • Cut: swipe left or right to switch lanes past a defender.
  • Chip and jump: swipe up to lift the ball over a tackle.
  • Shoot: facing the keeper, tap the part of the goal you aim at.

3Why it matters

In Career mode, some trials ask you to beat opponents or keep a combo going, and speed keeps rising with only three chances per run. Mastering the nutmeg, the chip and the cut is how you get through the hardest stretches.
