How to do a Soccer move - the Rainbow

Soccer has been around for a couple thousands of years, one of the most popular moves is the Rainbow. From the website OSA also know as Online Soccer Academy, published by Jeremy Moss who is also the co founder said, "The soccer rainbow is a classic soccer trick to do when showing off for your friends and to excite the fans and also escape from the defender". As a soccer player, you always need to have a move ready. The Rainbow is a unique move where you are able to escape the defender with ease if the move is properly executed.

To properly execute the Rainbow, there are cretin steps you need to follow to have the best outcome.
Step 1)  Use your dominant foot to roll up the ball up your non dominant leg.
  •  for example,  if you were right footed, your right foot would roll the ball up for left leg and same process would apply if you were left footed.
Step 2) Follow through with your foot, you want to in a way flick it up.
Step 3) You want to land on your dominant foot as you kick the ball with your heel.
Step 4) The ball should have landed in front of you if done properly.

SOME TIPS 
Just some simple tips are to always start with the ball under your feet, that is the easiest way to start off the movement of the rainbow. If you were in a game situation approaching a defender you would want to quickly dribble at the defender to have them step back, while you try to attempt them move.

MORE TIPS 
According to Daniel Leon, who was a professional soccer player he stated that " Guide the ball with your leg". When i was attempting the move I also felt that was a huge help, you need to take control of the ball, your foot needs to be in control so it will be easy to preform.

The Rainbow was a hard move to execute, what in your life has been hard for you to execute?

  1. I really enjoyed this post. Me being former soccer player who used to practice/ use this trick very often. I struggled for awhile to be able to perform this trick and it took me a very long time to get it down, but these tips seem really helpful for someone who does not know how to do this trick! Are you able to preform this trick at game speed?
