When a footballer is in control of the ball, the player can shoot by pressing Fire on the joystick. The length of time the player holds down Fire will decide how far the ball will travel after being kicked.

When a corner-kick is taken, the flight angle of the ball is altered by the length of time the Fire button is held. When a throw-in is taken, pressing Fire ensures that the ball will be thrown to a team-mate.
