Hi, this is Jason from best soccer tricks
dot com and today I'll be showing you how
to change directions quickly. This soccer drill
consists of setting up three cones. One
after another. Leave quite some space in
between. So, we'll be starting at this cone
and what we're going to do is take some
quick touches to the cone in the middle,
then once we arrive in the middle, we do
a fake shot or we cut the ball back
however we want, we take a few touches
then we take another, we cut back again,
we run to the end cone, then go around it
and we repeat the same pattern you come
to the middle we cut back, other foot and
then we run to the other cone. So this is
like one rep. You do it each side, When
you take, when you cut back, let's say you
do it whit your right, try to also do it
with your left, that way you improve both
feet. Because in a game it's vital to be
able to turn whichever foot you're on.
Because you won't have the time to
always go on your strong foot so, if you
practice both feet in a game, you'll be
able to turn no problem. So I'll do it a
bit quicker now and show you guys
how it looks like.

So just a quick tip, when I fake the shot
and turn back, what's important is to
really and emphasize the movement so
that's way your defender actually thinks
that you're shooting or that you're
going to make a pass, because if you just do
it like this, you're not going to fool any
defender, especially if they're good. So,
try to really go, swing your arms, bring your legs,
and then take a nice
touch back do it again if you're not,
if you're not familiar with this movement,
start just by doing it on the side take
little touches like this, to get familiar
with the movement and once you're ready
go on the drill and eventually do it
faster. You can also do other types of
change of directions,
you can go like that, you can do like
this it's free to you. Just practice the
basics and then when you're ready go
into it faster.
So, I'll do it again the other side,

I hope you enjoyed the video of how to
turn quick and sharp. Remember, it's
important to really emphasize the body
movement, try to fake the defender as
much as possible. Practice it as much as
you can and when you do it also a quick
tip, bend your knee a bit, that way you
get low and you're able to push off
quicker because if you stay straight, you
can get injured and you won't be able to
push off as quickly. So practice this
soccer drill,
the more you practice, the better you're
going to get it get at it and it's a very
simple drill to get away from defenders.
So, drop a like and I hope you enjoyed
the video.
