Two Footed Footballers.
Watching the recent European Football Championships, I was amazed at how many of these so-called professional footballers were only comfortable kicking the ball with one favoured foot. There are a number of disadvantages to this.
Most obviously when you have a scoring chance and the ball comes to your `wrong` foot, you have to transfer the ball to your other foot, by which time the chance may have gone, or you risk the chance of having a swing at the ball with the wrong foot and miscuing horribly. Your opponent can read what you are going to do more easily when you are one-footed.
If you are right footed and attacking the defender down the left wing of the pitch, he can channel you down the outside, as he knows you will not be able to swing in a decent cross with your left foot. Being two footed gives you the ability to go past an opponent on either side and keep him guessing on what you are going to do next. It opens up the pitch for you and gives you more options and variety to your play. A good way to improve your other foot is to put a slipper on your best foot, and a boot on the other foot when training, and encourage yourself to only kick with your wrong foot for say half an hour each day. You will soon see a rapid improvement in your play. Author, Des Ingham, http://www.liveyourdreamzz.co.uk.
