Defending Tips |

|
The most effective way to stop an attacking team is to tackle them. However, some characters have high strength and won't get downed with a simple tackle. You will need to charge up your tackle to stop their movements.
There will be times that you will need to do a Team Tackle to prevent an enemy from advancing. Do a Team Tackle if there's no one else to defend aside from the goalie to instantly steal the ball.
Do note that it requires some practice and a little luck to do it perfectly.
How to Do a Team Tackle
Characters with High Strength | |||

Waluigi | Donkey Kong | Bowser | Wario |
The Strength stat increases the resistance to tackles, but it also increases the tackle power of a character. Using a character that has a high Strength stat can easily mow down enemies close by with a basic tackle.
Characters with high strength stat usually have large bodies as well, and they can use it to body-block the ball easily.
The audience will throw items from time to time, but it favors more the team who always get tackled on the field. Use the items that you got defensively to prevent the enemy team from getting a score.

Red Shell | Green Shell | Bob-omb | Banana |
Items such as Red Shells, Green Shells, Bananas, and Bob-ombs stop and block a shot if they intercept it on its path. It can be very helpful in situations where you are far from the shooter, and no one is near to guard the shooter.
Always remember that the goalkeeper's defense is not score-proof. When attacking, make sure at least one of the characters stays close to the center line, so it can go back fast if the enemies stole the ball and looking to counterattack.
You can use your own body to block a shot, so having a huge body like Donkey Kong can be advantageous for your team. You can take over the goalie's spot if it can't move or the goalie fails to stop the ball completely.
