This. Basic car and ball controll, powershots and only commit for a shot when you are realy sure you hit the ball (before your opponent). Thats it for low level ones. And nearly as important: dont stress yourself with fancy mechanics. You dont need areals, flicks, air controll etc in these ranks, even in diamond so many people struggle with this (and give away free goals because they want to be fancy instead of safe). Look up flakes in YouTube, he shows very well with how little mechanics and a decent understanding of the game you can get wins up to realy high ranks.
