What is Fox In The Box?
Fox In The Box in eFootball keeps the player inside the penalty area, reacting quickly to loose balls and crosses to score. A goal-hunter type built on movement in the box and finishing. It fits tactics that produce a lot of crosses and second balls.
Which positions trigger Fox In The Box
Fox In The Box only triggers when the player is used at CF. Played anywhere else the behaviour does not appear, so playing the card in one of these positions is the basic requirement for getting anything out of the style.
