Various Soccer Moves

Dribbling and shooting goals is not what soccer is all about. It means that you are encouraged and confident that you may have a chance of winning. If you want to play soccer, you must have the right moves. Sometimes you may come up of your own but there are others out there that could too.

The back pass is one. When you know that your teammate is right behind you and your opponent is right in your face, pass to the player behind you. But this trick is not all accurate, but if you try it just may be. Try back passing the soccer ball in your backyard with a bowling pin or something.

Turn your back to the object and back pass! If the soccer ball hits the object, it means that you hit it accurately! Before you get your hopes up, try back passing it for a few times until you know it to the back of your hand/inside and out.

The scissor is another one too. Move your faking foot around the ball and plant it on the outside of it. Immediately cut the ball with the outside of your other foot and accelerate. The double scissor one is a bit harder but you can still try! This is an advancement from the standard scissors move except that after executing the two fakes you cut to the inside instead of out.

Rivelino move has been used for ages and still now. Ronaldino sometimes uses this move in his soccer games too! In the Rivelino you feint by moving one foot around the ball from the outside in. Then you cut the ball using the outside of the same foot.
