Throw in

A throw in is awarded when the ball crosses the left or right touchlines on the sides.

In PES the throw in is controlled by facing the player where the ball will be thrown. There are 3 types of throw ins that can be taken. A short throw, taken with X on PS2/3 or A on 360, will throw the ball directly to one of the players standing near the thrower. A long throw using O on the PS2/3 or B on 360 will throw the ball further. The third is a through ball throw, performed by pressing Triangle, which is deliberately thrown in front of a player to make it easier to break with the ball.

Players with the long throw special ability like Rory Delap and Daniel Agger excel at long throws.

Long throws are best used when in line with, or just out of line with, the penalty area so that the ball enters the box. If you were to aim towards the six yard box, the keeper rarely comes to retrieve it and defenders often don't mark up. Leaving you with a free header very close to goal.
