How do I get fouled by the AI

This game is a joke, I hate online game play so stick to squad battles. I’ve played 40 games now trying to get a foul

tried shielding, just run around me and get the ball or poke the ball through my legs etc

tried dribbling, just slides or standing tackle to perfection everytime.

tried pulling the ball back and slow dribbling etc with close control, it’s impossible to be fouled

yet there is a challenge out called dead ball danger where you need to score 3 free kicks. It’s a joke that this is impossible to do. It’s yet another failure on EAs part

    When you finish your 16 Squad Battles matches, refresh them again and you’ll usually get some much lower-tier teams.

    Play on Semi-Pro or Pro difficulty and there should be more chances of drawing fouls. Try getting close to the penalty box with your back to goal, then use small movements and shielding constantly. Eventually the AI will usually make a tackle and foul you.

    But I hear you, Bro — the fact that players have to actively “hunt” for fouls like this instead of them happening naturally during gameplay is kind of ridiculous.

    I managed to complete this but it was a pain, took many attempts, the only way I got fouled was trying to anticipate the defender action and changing direction quickly with a smaller nimble player 5”2 with technical+ and rapid+ also has first touch and trickster, a few feet outside the penalty area doing quick diagonal changes, it also didn’t help that when I finally got a free kick most of them hit the crossbar!!!

    I played squad battles on semi-pro difficulty, world class or above not worth it because you hardly can even get the ball off them

    I also found it impossible to get a foul shielding the ball or slow dribbling 

    Terrible requirement for a challenge in my opinion
