Defending Long Throws - Throw Taker always left unmarked


Recommended Posts

I've been burned by this a few times, and it's becoming increasingly frustrating because I have no idea how to defend against it.

Basically what's happening is I am often winning the first ball off of my opponent's long throw, but because there is no one (from either team) near the sideline, the player who took the throw in is completely alone and gathers the second ball verry easily.  They then have far too much room to pick out a cross or dribble into the box and take a shot.

I have given up a handful of goals this way and it is very annoying. As far as I can tell, there are no assignments in the Set Piece tactics menu that would help me here.

Does anyone have a good solution for how to prevent these second ball chances from long throws?
