Everyone

wants to bend it like

Beckham, (middle)

but not everybody

understands why the

ball curves and

swerves.

The golden rule, to

curving a soccer ball

is to hit the ball with

the side of your foot,

and don’t forget to

swing your hips! You

also

need to hit the ball

with pace (this will

make you curve the

ball with more accu-

racy). This method

will make you the

king of curving the

soccer ball.

Cris)ano Ronaldo

(bo7om) is a great exam-

ple for curving a soccer

ball. He scores his fantas-

)c goals from free-kicks,

which are the easiest

way to make the ball

curve (there is not as

much pressure because

you are not being chased

by the opposi)on).

Ronaldo can also knuckle

ball, and a dip.

The knuckle ball is where

the ball has no spin and

does not move in the air.

The dip is where the ball

sky’s and then drops dra-

ma)cally.

It is possible to curve the

ball with the outside of

your foot, but it requires

a much higher level of

skill.

Roberto Carlos (top) is

a great fantas)c exam-

ple, he can score goals

with either foot, curv-

ing the ball with the

outside of his boot.

His most famous goals

are his leE foot goal

from the byline, and

some of his amazing

free kicks with the

outside of his boot.

Lots of people under-

es)mate the curve,

but there is definitely

more to it than just

hiIng it with the in-

side of your foot.

The Cote d’Ivoire striker was clearly the fan fa-

Now the boots, Nike have

some absolutely amazing

boots!! Like the Nike Mercurial

Vapor Superfly III. Also the Ni-

ke Tiempo Legend, and the Ni-

ke T90 Laser III. A lot of fantas-

)c players wear Nike, like Didi-

er Drogba, Cris)ano Rolando

and Neymar. But that’s just

naming a few!

Nike have an awesome web-

site called NikeiD. NikeiD is

were you can design your own

soccer boot, basketball shoe,

casual shoe, American football

shoe and much more! When I

say design, I mean choose

your own material for the

shoe; leather or suede. You

Nike vs Adidas

The great rivalry, between Nike

and Adidas. Nike is be7er in so

many different ways, the clubs

they sponsor, the boots, and the

balls.

Nike definitely sponsor be7er

clubs, like Barcelona, Arsenal,

Manchester United and FC Porto.

And the balls, they are fantas)c,

like T90’s, Tiempo’s and

Rolinho’s.

Every fan of a club loves a par)c-

ular player, and every great play-

er is sponsored. And majority of

the )me, you see those fantas)c

players wearing Nike boot. Ma-

jority of the players complained

in the 2010 World Cup, that the

Jo’bulani and Ja’bulani were hor-

rible. “The ball is not decent, not

just for Goalkeepers but for eve-

ryone. Its trajectory is unpredict-

able.”

name on them! You can also design bags and

other sports gear. You choose your own size, and

obviously your own gender. The sizes range,

from 6-16. And they come in kids, boys and girls,

and men’s and women’s.
