How to unlock the Golden Boots achievement in Kinect Sports - Definitive Guide

so this achievement is kind of straight forward. although it is kind of tricky. there are just some little pointers that everybody should know.

1.when the opponent has the ball they will drag it whichever way they will pass so stay towards that side.

2. always try to keep the ball in the middle. if it is not possible then bring it out to the sides and try to get a corner kick (kick it high at the goalie)

3. Always shoot towards the top corners of the net and the goalie will only save it approximately 25% of the time.

4. If you lob the ball to the player who is able to kick then attempt to volley it toward the net because the shot is usually too powerful for the goalie to handle.

some basic soccer skills are applied as well, such as if you are in the left corner then you want to kick it with your right foot for the curve and you want to kick it high over the goalie. (it is the opposite in the right corner)

when playing goalie you want to just always bend your knees and keep your legs and arms wide to reduce the movement you must make to save it.

everything to help you earn this achievement are just small little tips and pointers. these will also help you towards your champions victory as well.

Good luck to everybody:)

I can get the defense, but it's getting the damn ball into the net that I'm having a difficult time with. You say kick it to the corner, but when I try that I'm always kicking it dead center. Is there a special way you have to kick it for the sensor to understand that you are not kicking it dead center?

Ok guys this can be quiet tuff but once you get used to Pro or Champ difficulty you wont have a problem

Tips :- Great defending is key...try and always win, Try and get the ball to the centre of the field, When shooting, hit it as hard as you can but slightly to the left/right (aim for top right/left hand corner) Lastly, be quick, very quick offensive & defensive.

How hard you move your leg does count for shooting, the ball will fly pass the keeper if done correctly just practice and youll get there

Achievement earned 13.11 Champ difficulty, Score 7-2

You'll need enough play space to get this achievement. Otherwise, it's next to impossible to get kicks off with enough power and accuracy.

^ shouldn't the space issue be a given if you're playing Kinect?

Could you expand on "if done correctly" please? What's the correct technique. All my shots seem to go direct to the keeper or if I make an attempt to aim for the top corners the ball ends up way wide of the goal. :(

A couple extra tips that helped me do this much quicker:

I found advancing the ball up the sides much easier as I would get the ball knocked away far less but the keeper would block the majority of my shots from the sides. So I moved the ball all the way up either side in position to shoot and let a defender slide into me. The ball would generally get knocked out of bounds giving me a throw in which would allow me a shot right in the middle of the field where I had much better success scoring. Or you'll get a free kick. Either way it's the easiest way I found to get consistent shots in the middle of the field.

I'm not great at Kinect Sports, However i can offer up techniques and things.

I decided randomly to try champ difficulty and i got this first try, previously i was on amatuer. I did try this on professional once, and well fell short by 4 goals. Champ difficulty does make this easier in my opinion.

When defending, throw your leg out in the direction quickly shown,sometimes a knee is all that is required. You can kindof guess as to the direction, the more space on a particular side is generally the side they will go ( but dont bet on this), and it usually goes to the far right/ left. When keeping do a crouched star pose, as if a penalty, makes it easier to reach all areas.

In terms of shooting, always aim for the top corners and imagine you are kicking it as hard as possible, and follow through with the kick. (Imagine your striking a real ball from like 40 yards away) It will either nicely go into the top corner or miss by a small amount depending on the angle of your kick, or what happened to me, bounce off the crossbar in or just past the goalies ears. Suprisingly the aiming on the game is more or less done for you. I would not suggest personally trying to curve it in, finesseing the shot, or in general anything with the side of your foot. The goalie will almost always stop it.

Do this 5 times and it will pop up almost straight away. If memory serves me right it pops up on the goal kick.

My game ended 5-1. I got the achievement first try on champ, and wasn't a clean sheet because I got lazy and realised they couldn't win. :) Good Luck, this will come with a little practice I promise :)

Once again, this is not actually as difficult as it seems, as long as you can keep up the shots. Quick reactions are a key here, so that you can pick your passes relatively quickly before the computer has time to react to them. Try, and like you would in a real game, pass to someone in space – especially when it comes to shooting as you’ll have a little bit more time to place your shot. If you lose the ball and have to defend, spread yourself out and make yourself as big as possible. The computer favours passing either side of you, rather than trying to pass between your legs, so the more spread out you are, the easier it is to cover these sides without having to sidestep too much. With a bit of patience, this one should come over time. Obviously, playing a professional difficulty opponent will be easier, but this could come just as easily against a Champion difficulty opponent, as you will need to score to much as possible and keep the ball away from them as much as possible in order to win.
