Ronaldo + Instep Dribble

  • Age U6 - U13, U14 - U19
  • Training Set Progression, Main point

Procedure

The ball is played with the outside/toe of the right foot to the left. The ball rolls lightning-fast over the instep to the right inside of the foot. During the technique sequence, a body feint to the right is faked, then dribble left with the right inside of the foot. Then start a fast instep dribble. The player alternates using the right and left instep (twice each right and left). Technique sequence: 1 - 3 Feint sequence: outside/toe - instep - inside of the foot 4 - Take ball with right inside of the foot 5 - 8 Dribble forward with instep, starting with left, alternating right/left (each foot twice)

Tip

Ronaldinho feint technique: - The ball is lightly tapped lightning-fast with the right outside/toe and flows smoothly over the instep to the right inside. - The foot is on the right ball of the foot. - The leg is bent. - Alternating upper body position between upright and leaning forward. Instep technique: - The ankle must be locked open. - Bend the leg. - Touch the ball only very lightly (fine technique) with the upper body leaning forward. - Alternate looking at the ball and looking up; do not play with the inside or outside of the foot. - This technique improves fine technique, teaches locking the ankle open, and thereby develops better shooting technique for volleys, inside-of-the-foot shots, and full instep shots.
