But EA SPORTS are sure to be sweating after an intrepid gamer discovered a glitch which guarantees a goal '99.9 per cent of the time'.

has revealed how to find the back of the net – and wind your opponent up – by following some simple instructions when taking a corner.

Players are told to play it short before whipping in a cross from the byline.

For reasons unknown, this seems to flummox the goalkeeper, who is unable to pull off a save as you head the ball home.

Kosh explained: “The glitch is simple. You want to call a player to you when you’re taking a corner, you want to press LT as soon as you get the corner so the player comes to you.

“Then you want to press LT again when you get the ball with the player to move to the byline of the corner and then take a cross straight away, and the keepers get glitched.

“I don’t know how it happened but the keepers get glitched and can’t get close to the ball and you have a very very good chance to score the goal.

It is likely EA Sports will fix the glitch by the time the full game releases next week

“This glitch works like 99 per cent of the time. I mean 99.9 per cent of the time, you’re probably going to score from it but I guarantee you’re going to get the cross in and you’re probably going to get a header on the ball like 100 per cent of the time

“The only thing that I can’t predict is if the defender is going to get in the way

“But for sure the goalkeeper gets glitched, he can’t reach the ball, all you have to do is have tall players in the box to head the ball into the back of the net.”
