So, i'm following this tutorial, and there comes a part where the person selects two vertices and creates a new one in between them that sticks to an edge between those vertices.

enter image description here enter image description here

I have no idea how to do this and can't seem to find an answer. The best i could find was selecting both vertices and pressing F, but that simply creates a new edge that goes through the object.

enter image description here

Would appreciate some help! Here is the link, it happens at 2:13 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hCrZWJphLE&ab_channel=TopChannel1on1

Let's say that this is your topology and you want to create an edge between these 2 vertices:

If you press F it will create an edge but it won't go across the existing faces:

You need to press J to create an edge that will go across the faces. Note that you could also use the knife tool (K to activate):
