Five Simple and Practical Football Skills

Hello, everyone, today we share five simple and effective primary skills, I hope you like them!

The five practical skills brought today are very simple and effective. Let’s take a look at some of them. Let’s start now:

Knock someone across

The first action is used when we want to create enough space to shoot or cross. We can use this technique to explode directly from the static state, and the speed is very fast. Sudden breakout can make this technique more effective.

All the previous "dances" are preparations. It doesn’t matter what we do. The key is to let the opponent not know what we are going to do. If we slow down, this action is not complicated at all. First, push the ball across the body with one foot, and at the same time, kick the ball in the opposite direction with the other foot, and then break through.

Note that we can also make the ball bounce a little and increase the lethality of this action. At first, we should practice this action slowly, and finally, even if the defender meets you, we can still finish this action.

Pull the ball through the crotch

The sideline is the best helper for us to finish this crotch crossing. Even if there are no defenders, we should learn to practice by imagining ourselves, so that we can feel more comfortable when we train and learn these movements.

This crotch-piercing action can be divided into three simple steps. First, we pull the ball aside to create some space, then stop to attract the opponent to take the bait, and then wait for the opportunity to stir the ball to wear the crotch.

This action is just a pattern, and there are many ways. Of course, it can also be used in the middle. If we are trapped on the side, it can make us break through easily.

V-fake action

V-shaped push-pull is a very important and reliable skill. Now we derive a practical skill based on it. We combine V-shaped push-pull with body postures and riding a bicycle. Therefore, this requires us to have good coordination and be prepared from the beginning.

When we finish the V-push-pull, we can make a body fake or step sideways in the opposite direction, then stop and step on the bike, and finally get rid of it.

We must observe the game and read about the defensive players and the game. The only way to succeed is to cultivate our self-confidence and skills through practice and improvisation. When we feel more confident, we can create our own rules and be comfortable in the game.

Reverse feint

Although this action can’t guarantee that you can get rid of your opponent 100%, it can give us enough space. In the game, as long as we have the opportunity to raise our heads, we may complete high-quality actions.

We pull the ball back a few steps, and the defender either stops or pounces, then we turn our ankles, make a fake move, and finally break through in the direction of the target.

This action is very useful in the cross or in front of the penalty area, especially when we don’t have much time to do it. It is very simple. We must master it. Let’s go to the stadium and practice now.

Ronaldinho stopped behind him.

Ronaldinho can do this action at will anywhere on the court, so there is no limit to this skill. The first step is very simple. We pull the ball back behind us, then stop on our toes and pull it back.

If an opponent inserts an assist, as shown in the picture below, it will make this action more confusing, and it seems as if it is going to pass the ball, and then suddenly stop and throw off the defender.

When we are doing movements, we should not stand up straight. We should believe that the more we practice, the more skillful we are, the better our performance will be. We can step on a bicycle, wear crotch, or turn around to protect the ball and do whatever we want, as long as the movements are smooth.
