        "A good attacker scores, a brilliant attacker leaves his defenders in the dust in doing so"(F2 110). Simple is always efficient, although sometimes simple doesn't achieve what you want. This exercise doesn't stretch simple but also is not as easy to do. Using this skill will get your defender moving as well as yourself so before starting any training remember to always ALWAYS warm up your body to prevent unnecessary injury. This can be done by stretching your calf's and hamstrings.

         

       

Persistence and strong will is the key to success when learning something so remember, it may not work at first but soon enough the skill will develop. "This one's going to take a bit of practice, the key thing is to follow the steps closely and then build up the speed slowly" (F2 111). Begin with "touching the ball with the inside of your foot, then the outside cutting slowly back wards".

Don't move on until the first two steps are very good as it will be a lot harder taking it all in at once rather then step by step. If you have these steps down then start to "cross your standing leg behind the ball" (F2 112). 

Great, you're almost done, "now use your trailing foot to tap the ball in front of you and explode away from the defender and race away" (F2 113). Now you have learned another trick, do not forget if you do not get in touches on the ball every week your skills will diminish slowly so always look to get some practice time in and especially always seek to improve your skills on the ball as there is no such thing as perfect but you can always be better.

Do you think being the best attacker means being able to pull of the fanciest tricks?
