Finally, I also showed them what happens if you control the ball but it gets stuck under your feet (you lose time and can get tackled… See more3Reply

Kevin Middleton⭐🔥 • Sep 23Teaching young players about cushion v wedge touch is something I really recommend.A redirection of your first touch follows these fundamentals and is a crucial area of the game to master.All 3 are under coached these days :(3Reply
