When the ball is on the move I have trouble getting the timing properly for the curve/cross. Any Tips? Great Vid

[@KreiderAcademy]

Thank you😊 One thing I’d do to help with this is alternate reps of a dead ball and a rolling ball. So take one cross with the ball stopped and the next as it rolls. Try to mimic the feeling, dynamics, and technique that is working for the dead ball on the rolling ball! To improve timing you really just need practice. So just consistently work on your crossing 4-5 times a week for a couple of months and you’ll see a massive difference! If you’re still struggling after a couple of months then let me know and I’ll give you some other advice to try, but I really think this will do the trick for you😁🫶🏼

[@sickyboy268]

Hey bro can u help me , should i juggle with toes pointing forward and foot straight or toes pointing upward

[@KreiderAcademy]

It depends! If your toes are pointing up you’ll get backspin on the ball, but with a straight foot you’ll have less spin on it. I prefer to juggle with a straight foot most of the time because it’s more similar to how you’d strike the ball to shoot👍🏼

[@coderayan1706]

Thanks for the advice❤

[@sickyboy268]

Exactly 💯 and btw whats your record with that and thanks for the advice❤

[@KreiderAcademy]

@@coderayan1706 Of course!

[@KreiderAcademy]

@@sickyboy268 No problem! I can't remember anymore. When I was around 13 or 14 I got over 2 thousand so now I either juggle a few hundred to help warm up for training or I mess around and do tricks

[@shaziajazib6203]

ur too underrated

[@KreiderAcademy]

Thank you🫶🏼🫶🏼

[@legendaryvgamer297]

We have to use instep or knuckle of big toe

[@KreiderAcademy]

Depends on how much power you want on the strike. I generally get more whip and curl with my instep as well as it’s more consistent. But I’m sacrificing power that I would get with the knuckle of my big toe for that consistency and accuracy. Hope this helps🫶🏼

[@mariaburgess9215]

Help me pls every time i curve the ball around the goal it goes straight to the corner and i cant hit the ball around the post and back in even tho i watched ur video like 5 times.

[@KreiderAcademy]

It’s difficult for me to tell you exactly the problem is without seeing you strike the ball. But here’s some things that might help, and practice these just by rolling the ball and shooting to see if you can get curve. 1. Take your touch wider. Less forward and wider. This will help with #2 2. Wrap your hips around the ball. Your leg should swing around your standing foot. This is different from how your leg goes straight through the ball on laces shots. 3. Lift your toe up higher. This will help you get more side spin on the ball. My other suggestion is have a friend come record you shooting so you can see your technique. If you then compare yours to mine, you might find the issue yourself if those three points are seeming to do the trick. I hope this helps😁🫶🏼
