How to unlock the The Sniper achievement in eFootball - Definitive Guide

I have just unlocked this and there was a lot of confusion in regards to the controls

It's actually LB+RS click to get control of the keeper
Then move him as far away as possible and fire away with half a bar of power
Achievement should unlock during the celebrations

LB + push down RS, then move the goalkeeper (GK) with LS. Move the GK far away from the goal, then shoot.

More action on your own, less action in others. This is 6 months old and never took effort to update or delete your own. No instead you trying to correct others shock

This can be done with two controllers. The second profile should foul the main profile 25m out (there is an indicator of distance when you take a free kick) just to the right hand side of the D if you free kick taker is right footed.

Then aim so the second defender in the wall is in line with the post, use 50-65% power and hold cn_LSl if a right footer or cn_LSr if a left footer. Holding the direction button will curl the ball towards the goal, we are aiming for as close to the post as possible while being on target.

It took me a few times to find the right combo of power and placement.

25m is just over 27 yards. The easiest way to see if you are far enough away is to look at the lines on the pitch. Each strip is 6 yards, the penalty area is 18 yards, so you want to shoot from at least two more lines away.

Best to do this with two controllers. Use your dummy account to foul the attacker. On the free-kick, press cn_LB+cn_RSc (LB + RS in) to control the goalkeeper. Move him away from the goal and shoot with the attacker. Depending on location and angle, just over 50% of the power bar will be enough to hit the open goal. My shot deflected off the wall and still counted. Don't have to worry about aiming, just get it up and over the wall with the right power.

EDIT: not sure how people are having issues controlling the keeper. Maybe there is a bug. Here's a video of someone showing these controls on action, at the 1-minute mark:

How are you controlling the goalkeeper. I get the free kick usually between 28-35metres out and it only gives me the option to control 2 players of the opposite team. Guessing I’m too far out to control the gk?

Guys ignore that it'd LB + RS click is how you get to the keeper and then hold left/right on stick to move him out i only found this out in settings just now and unlocked it :)

My suggestion is not to call out people and speak down to them inside a solution main post. That's just really shitty. If people are having issues understanding your guide, adjust it instead of berating commenters to your solution as if they were kids not paying attention. If you believe they have misread, reply to them in the comment tail rather than the main solution.

I appreciate the guide.

Normally the Right Stick has an icon that says RS instead of an R that looks really closer to an A than it does an R. Putting it in brackets is smart and will avoid that issue happening to anyone else.

This method does require 2 controllers.

For those who don't have a spare controller, you can do the following:
  1. Start an Authentic Team match against the CPU;
  2. Select two sides with decent set piece takers, say England vs Argentina;
  3. Set the difficulty to the hardest;
  4. During the game, foul the opposition player a few metres from the edge of the box, pause the game and switch sides so you get to take the FK;
  5. Repeat until you score from over 25m.
It did take a few tries to me, but I managed to score a 31m FK with Trippier (England RB) against Argentina;

Start an exhibition match with 2 controllers. Using your second controller, foul your main account on the side of player 2, just not right in front of the penalty area.

Then, using your second controller, hold L1 + press R3. You now control the goalkeeper and can move him out of the goal. All that is left now is to shoot the ball inside the empty net. It’s technically possible to prevent the wall from jumping by holding X but it didn’t work for me while I was controlling the goalkeeper, however it’s not too difficult to shoot around it when you don’t have to worry about a goalkeeper.
