How to unlock the Woodwork & In! achievement in FIFA 11 - Definitive Guide

I just barely got the game, and I just got it in practice. I did it completely on accident (grabbed a drink, and I came back and had unlocked it), but, I see it can definitely be exploited. Here's how it goes.

While in Practice Arena, press the Back button, and then choose "Practice Set Piece". This will bring you to the Practice Set Piece Menu. From this menu, under "Set Piece Type", choose Penalty kick, and make sure under "Playing As" you choose Attacking Team. After doing so, press A to advance. This will take you to a penalty kick. If you don't kick the ball yourself, after about 18-20 seconds the CPU will automatically take the Penalty kick. With this method, you can leave your Xbox on while you're sleeping, at work, etc., and the CPU will just keep taking shots over and over. Using this, it is bound to come to you.

I hope this guide helps.

Wanna know an even easier way to do this? Check this out... while in practice area, press the back button and choose practice set pieces. Choose penalty kick, and of course be the one shooting the penalty kicks. Now check this out... As the your player is waiting for you to hit B to shoot. Tap the LT button and a small purple dot appears over the goalie. As you perpare to shoot, you can move it. Aim for a post or crossbar, and with some practice you will hit the post and score a goal and hear... Bleep boop
Keep trying, you'll get it. To everyone who claims this is glitched and/or you can't get it, I just got it right now... AUGUST 7 2012! Good luck people!

It's quite hard to try to do this; it will come naturally as you play the game. You have to score off the post or the bar (the ball hits the goal frame and goes in) in a practice, career, pro club or head to head match.

Mine popped in quite a comedic way - I had a shot that hit the woodwork, bounced out, hit the keeper on the back and into the net!

It seems to be glitched, as I have scored off the woodwork many times during matches. I was fooling around on the pitch to score a goal with the keeper for that achiv, and ended up scoring like Wolfenchild did. Both of them popped, which made it all the funnier.

Yeah this achievement is really a little glitched, but if you're aiming to complete the game, you will do it. I scored three goals off the post and the achievement pop up scoring the third and the most weird. I shooted from around 20 yards hitting the post, the defender kick it into his own net. He was the goalscorer, but i get that chievo anyway.

So be patient and my advice is to try to use not good teams, for example 3- star or less, i did it with Flamengo scoring three goals off the post in one match.

This one took me over 100 games, but all the sweeter when you get it with your pro with a peach with the wrong foot from outside the box.

Achievement plus three accomplishments for my pro!

There is no reliable way to force this to happen, but you shouldn't really have to try for it anyway. You will have to score hundreds, if not thousands of goals while playing towards the platinum, so you will get this sooner or later. Although it's mostly luck, you should always aim for the corners of the net to have a better chance of hitting the woodwork, as well as a better chance of scoring. I wouldn't worry about this, as you will more than likely do it hundreds of times before you finish.

Achievement for good luck. The only advice is to try to score with strong blows in arena mode (long press the button ).
