EA Sports FC 24 skill moves: How to do the Drag Back Turn
This is a perfect skill to use inside the box. If you are running past the angle you want to shoot at, or if you are cornered into a space you don’t want to be, the drag back turn can be your best friend.
It allows you to swiftly exit directly behind yourself very quickly, by touching the ball and then dragging it back, making your player turn before your opponent. Use this down the wing for a cutback, or even inside the box to surprise your opponent.

Simply Hold L2/LT and hold RS in the opposite direction. Drag backs are nothing new in this game – but this is a particularly useful tweak for FC 24 that has upgraded them. As ever, practice makes perfect.
