Automated press and players bouncing

Hi,

It’s quite a recurrent trend now in FC25 to play against people who have some sort of automated press and automatically gets the ball back. As soon as I get the ball, the opponent goes right to it and bounce on my player who then fall on the ground but there is no foul. 
I use the function Team Press too and using L2 button to cover the ball or move the opponent away but it seems the advantage is never for me (starting to think if I have a problem with my controller or if people use cheat codes?). Is there any trick or something I’m missing here? 
I didn’t got this problem so often in the previous versions. Many thanks!

  • This sums up my entire experience on the game especially when playing ultimate team rivals. Don't know what to do about it. It just seems odds are never in my favour, opponent always wins the ball back even in the most outrageous situations. For instance sometimes you make a clean tackle but the player you retrieved the ball from somehow magically gets the speed and alertness to immediately press my player and win the ball back. Its crazy.

    Turn off crossplay. If you match with a PC player there is a likelihood they are running a cheat or hack. Incredible speed, passes, tackles…all indicators of a hack. Yes, sometimes it’s just a really good player, but once you’ve faced a cheater you recognize the signs. A lot of the PC players are really good by the way. And not all of them are cheaters.

    I noticed a huge difference with crossplay off.  Gameplay seems much more balanced and never see the totally extreme pace, tackles, unlucky bounces etc. However, it’s getting really tough to find opponents these past few weeks on rivals at least

  • It's because they switch players activating second man press alot and means you just get swarmed with zero time to react.

    This and defending in general is the main reason im not buying fc 26.
