Putting your foot through a ball...

[Noni Juice]

Hi there,

I play football regularly but have always lacked a good shot. I normally try to place shots but since I normally play holding positions I get opportunities to shoot but I cant seem to ever really pull off a good shot and put my foot through the ball. Are there any videos or any tips anyone has? I tried doing some training with a mate who can (really well) and either my toes would scuff the ground or I would toe punt it.

No idea if it makes a difference, but I wear Copa Mundials.

Thanks for any help.

Wow thanks for all the replies, sorry if I miss some questions but-

-I think following through is where I'm going wrong, I dont recall doing it. I'll try and concentrate on that next time!

-I've (IMO) got a good range of passing, good tackling and am strong on the ball. I occasionally make bursts up front but when your sitting back and it opens up for you I'm always hesitant on whether I should or should not hit it. Then of course I end up panicking and cue my mates shouting haha! Its great to have a powerful long range drive on you!

-Practice, practice and practice! Will need more of this too I think!

-Foot normally does not leave the ground unless we are losing and I put all my frustration into the shot haha. Or if the ball is rolling across me.

Thanks for the replies.
