You're watching AllAttack.
Change of speed.
One of the most simple and effective skills
in all of football is really barely a skill at all.
In fact, all you really do is push the ball
past the defender and run.
Cuts.
Perhaps the most common skill in all of football.
Dribble at a defender.
Then, before you get too close,
use the inside or outside of your foot
to cut the ball at an angle past the defender.
The underfoot stop.
When you're dribbling down the field
and a defender is catching up with you,
use the underside of your foot to stop the ball.
And now you have more time and space
to decide what you want to do.
The shoulder drop.
When you're facing a defender,
take a big step one direction,
leaning your body and dropping your shoulder that way.
Then use your other foot to push the ball the other way.
The Cruyff.
When a defender is moving to block your shot or cross,
wind up like you're going to shoot,
but instead, use the inside of your foot
to drag the ball behind your leg.
Fake kick.
Run up to the ball and wind up like you're going to shoot,
pass, or cross,
but instead, don't, and push the ball a different way.
The stop-and-go underside of foot.
When you're dribbling down the field,
but a defender is catching up with you,
use the underside of your foot to stop the ball.
Then immediately use the inside of your other foot
to push the ball past the defender.
The stop-and-go inside of foot.
The stop-and-go with the inside of your foot
is almost exactly the same as the stop-and-go
with the underside of your foot.
The only difference is that you use
the inside of your foot to stop the ball
before pushing it past the defender.
Puskas.
When a defender reaches for the ball,
use the underside of your foot to pull the ball back.
Then use the inside of that same foot
to push the ball away from the defender.
The inside-out.
Use the inside of your foot
and start dragging the ball across your body.
Then use the outside of that same foot
to cut the ball the other way.
La croqueta.
Use the inside of your foot
and slide the ball across your body to your other foot.
Then use the inside of your other foot
to push the ball past the defender.
The pull-behind leg.
When a defender is coming in from the side,
use the underside of your foot
to pull the ball back and behind your leg.
Then use the inside of that same foot
to push the ball behind your leg and away from the defender.
The inside-stepover.
When a defender is on your back,
use one foot and step across your body
around the front of the ball.
Then use the outside of that same foot
to cut the ball the other way.
The stepover.
When you're dribbling at a defender,
bring one foot around the front of the ball.
Then use the top of your other foot
to push the ball the other direction past the defender.
The double-cut.
When you're dribbling at a defender,
use the top of your foot to make a small cut one direction.
Then quickly use the inside of that same foot
to cut the ball back the other way.
