Since the original poster never answered, i will. At the main menu, hit B. Then hit select and go to Practice Match. Choose a low amount of defenders and attackers, and go in. Then hit select again and go to select sides. Move your second controller to attacker and your main to defender.

I'll also add on that you'll be playing with the Tele camera (Which is viewed from above and to the side). It's best to have the shooter come directly straight in the middle to line the block up well enough.

So this bad boy is for blocking 5 shots in a game.

First off the length of the match, the difficulty and offline/online do NOT effect you getting this achievement.

I personally boosted it online and find this to be the best way. Alternatively if you have two controllers have a pal help you.

Best method is to have one controller SLOWLY dribble the ball to the centre of the pitch, into your own half (that bits important or it wont be a shot), with the controller you need to get the achievement with stand still and HOLD LT making sure you are square in front of the guy with the ball.

At this point you should both be stood still, before any pesky AI player comes to get you have the guy with the ball shoot and your fella with LT held down should automatically try and block the ball.

Rinse and repeat 5 times and *POP*

Please leave your comments and/or votes! Thanks

***Addition from neeker75 - Nasril and I finally got the time to try this out, and we unlocked the achievement. A few things to add:

1. We changed our shooting to manual to better control the direction for the shooter . We noticed before we did so that with shot assistance on, every shot would fly towards goal, making it harder to block.
2. If the center circle is too congested with pesky AI, try moving down towards the touchline. We noticed that there was lesser... interference, when we were there.
3. When at the touchline, we got the blocker to kick the ball out for a throw, got near to the player receiving and the throw-in, and adjust the direction to face each other from there.

Thanks for the solution again.***

Nice guide. I had problems doing it but that's because by brain is weird.

Will try it with a buddy. So the block doesnt have to be a standing tackle. Just block a shot?

As I expected, this seems to be the easiest way to do with a friend. Just that I didn't know LT is the key to this. Nasri let's do it tonight.

Thumbs up.

NasriL11 - If you follow the guide the player you are controlling will try to stick out a leg or throw part of his body in the way to block it. Its literally just block a shot. You have to be the reason the shot is blocked though, so AI blocks dont count

The blocker positioning is also important as sometimes, the ball will go through the legs instead of blocking it. Good luck trying, rusty at the start but you will soon get it.

Not to mention going through the legs "may" give you the "Megged" achievement.

Does it pop in game or do you have to wait until the end of the match to get it?

This achievement ended up being much more easier than i thought it was going to be.
I did it offline, all you have to do is get another controller (i did it by myself), pick any team. In the pre game screen go to Xbox controller settings and change the shooting to manual, make sure you do this with your second controller since its going to be the one doing all the shooting. Start the game and with your second controller just start shooting the ball directly at the opposing player. (make sure the player you are shooting the ball at has an arrow on top of his head). I didn't need to do anything with my number one controller. Just do that 5 times and achievement should unlock.

Also make sure you are on the opposing team's half when you shoot the ball being in your half will only cross the ball. Lastly, i don't think this makes a difference but i set the game difficulty to amateur.

I just get the achievement, it is very easy with another friend.
Just start an online friend competition game and invite your friend.
It doesn't matter how long the halves will take because it will pop up right after your fifth block.

This is how i did it:
Let your friend take a corner and let him call a player. Before he will pass just walk to the corner with your defender all ready. When he gets the ball just stand still before him and hold the LT button. Let him shoot and he will 1/2 times hit your defender and you will get a block. At this way you will get a corner again and if it doesn't just walk the ball over the line to get another corner.
This is just a good way because the angle to the goal from the corner flag is much smaller than from another spot. And I started doing this just in front of the goal, but you’re defenders will automatically take the ball...
So I hope this will help you guys...

Good luck!

To manually block one of your players must block a shot without you pressing a button to make him do so. Like Precision Tackler, this might come by just playing matches, but is also boostable with a friend, though it's harder to boost than Precision Tackler as you don't know if your player will block the shot.

For this you'll need a second controller. (Online used to be a thing, but Fifa 12 servers have shut down so I'm expecting inviting a friend won't work).

You can either follow the instructions below, or try a co-op match with someone. Not sure if it'll unlock though as I haven't tried it, but here's what worked for me:

Go to the practice area part by pressing cn_O on the main menu.

Press select cn_select on the controller and a little menu should pop up on the top left. Press practice set piece and make sure it's on free kick and attacking team before pressing advance. Move the ball by tilting L3 cn_LSc into the direction of where the ball is just outside of the box, then press cn_X to advance.

Get the player 2 controller connected and put them on the away team, the opposite to you.

Now all you have to do is purposely hit the 4 players forming a wall repeatedly. Try to aim for your player.

It took me a couple more attempts than expected, but I finally unlocked it.

To block hold to Jockey, simply block 5 shots in a game.

An easy method is to make a custom Formation of 1 defender. Keep giving the ball away and use the defender to block any shots the CPU makes by Jockeying. Another easy method is to do this with 2 controllers and get the help of another person. Get them to shoot at you whilst you Jockey.

In order to get this trophy, you need to manually block your opponent's attacks (5 times) with the tactical defense mode turned on. To do this, you need to hold the button in defense . Unfortunately, there was no assistant nearby, since the easiest way to get the trophy is with two people. I had to get it honestly.

Here are the settings with which I got the trophy the first time, after spending a little time. I played with powerful Barca teams against Real Madrid, I was for the latter. Maximum time is 20 minutes. The difficulty level is legendary. Help with auto-switching - machine gun + tactical protection, of course. He did nothing - he just defended himself, constantly threw himself under the ball, holding . Around the 65th minute, 5 blocks were accumulated and I received .

Let me make a small clarification on my own. Do you want your opponent to shoot on goal often? Use when he has the ball. Kick from the goal into the middle of the field, give the ball to the opponent and run towards him with your goalkeeper. The opponent will try to quickly deliver the ball to your goal and shoot, and you try to cover him.
Clamp together to achieve results. Use tackles depending on the situation.

Got it by playing an online tournament match in Ultimate Team mode. I didn’t make any special control settings - everything was in automatic or semi-automatic. It’s just that the opponent was aggressive and often hit the goal, and I blocked the flight of the ball with a tackling button or a tackle.
