Shot Fake + Pull Ball Sideways Behind the Standing Leg
AgeU6 - U13, U14 - U19
Training SetProgression
Number of Players1 - 5 players
Setup
The feint can be practised in open space or within a marked area. Each player has a ball.
Procedure
The player starts dribbling and fakes a shot with the right foot. He places the left standing leg in front of the ball and plays the ball with the right inside to the left. A 90-degree turn to the left follows and the player dribbles past the opponent with the left outside of the foot.
Tip
- The shot fake is a body feint. Therefore, it is important that the player's windup motion is maintained until the last moment. Only just before the foot touches the ball does the player initiate the actual feint.
