Defense and Goalkeeper positioning

Hi EA Sports FC team,

I want to give feedback about defending and goalkeepers in the current game.

Tackling: Even when my defender is right next to the attacker, shoulder to shoulder, pressing X/Square (tackle) often does nothing. The defender doesn't win the ball even in clear situations. Defending feels much weaker than before and I use Advanced Defending by the way.

Goalkeepers: Keepers are letting in shots they should save. Many times the shot goes exactly to the side where the keeper is already standing, and it still goes in. It feels like any powerful shot is a goal, no matter the angle or the keeper's position.

This makes matches frustrating, because good positioning and timing on defense are not rewarded. Please look at tackle success rates and goalkeeper reactions to power shots in the corner where the goalkeeper already is.
