What distinguishes the Spanish tiki taka?
It is typical of the Spanish game with the ball that they use an extremely large number of passes to create scoring chances. The opponent is downright worn down by the enormous ball security.
What kind of formation is good for tiki taka?
In recent years, the 4-3-3 formation has proven itself for Spain. Here, several "triangles" are created between the players in the basic order alone, which can be used as passing stations for the passer. (see picture)

Tiki-Taka of the Spaniards: Line-up, tactics and instructions
We took a look at the presets of the UEFA EURO mode in FC 24 during the Tiki-Taka of the Spaniards.
List
Spain plays the 4-3-3 (hold) at the European Championship. In contrast to the normal 4-3-3 formation, you have a defensively oriented midfielder in the centre of the midfield.
Tactics
In the tactics you have the possibility to adapt your game with and against the ball.
Defense
In defense, make the following settings:
- Defensive Style: Balanced
- Move: 50
- Depth: 70
With depth 70, your team is a little higher in defense. It also activates the automatic offside trap and team pressing.
Offensive
The decisive factor for the tiki-taka is how your team behaves in possession of the ball. To do this, make the following adjustments:
- Building game: Slow build-up
- Creating chances: Ball possession
- Width: 70
- Players in the box: 5
- Corners: 3
- Free kicks: 3
Your entire game is designed from back to front to combine you bit by bit with passes. Your players will always offer themselves for a short pass.

How do you play with this tactic?
The important thing with this tactic is that you remain patient. With the many short passes, you basically set up your opponent until the decisive gap opens up in the defense. You shouldn't be too shy to keep looking for the pass backwards to lure the opponent out of his reserve a bit.
Which players are suitable for tiki taka?
For a tactic that is designed for many passes, players with a high passing quality are suitable. At this point in Ultimate Team, you can find many cards for an affordable price that have a pass value of around 90.
Ideally, these players also have the appropriate passing styles for short passes. Worth mentioning here are, for example, the interface pass, the decisive pass and, in the best case, of course, tiki taka. Maybe you sign a few Spaniards right away, they usually have this style of play in their DNA.
