Players on the official forums have summarized that: More so, they go into further detail explaining the issue: Apparently, the main problems seem to stem from the game’s faulty AI.
The FIFA 20 goalkeepers are apparently facing the worst issues
I would seem that the goalkeeper is also suffering from a faulty AI: Of course, this entire problem is most likely caused by the fact that EA itself announced heavy changes regarding the game’s defending system. They especially mentioned the way keepers will behave and move, and how computer-controlled defending behaves in general. For example, the goalkeeper will move far slower that what players were used to in FIFA 20. This was in order to reflect the realistic movements of an actual keeper. This also forces players commit to a direction when defending manually. Back in FIFA 19, it was considered that goalkeepers had “superhuman” reactions. As such, changes were implemented to ensure that more shots were made in easy situations, and less shots were made in harder ones.
Why FIFA 20 abandoned AI-controlled defending
The reason for this overhaul in the defending system is because computer-controlled was extremely open in certain situations. For example, chaining multiple step overs in quick succession or doing repeated flick-ups. These two scenarios were almost impossible to defend against, which resulted in unrealistic and ridiculous plays. EA stated that: As such, the entire issue of a broken defending system in FIFA 20s stems from one of two things:
