Otherwise known as the Cristiano Ronaldo rocket shot, the Cristiano Ronaldo free kick is something that all soccer players wish they could do. Whenever Ronaldo steps up to take free kick the opposing goalkeeper takes a deep breath, as time and time again he rips into the upper corner with a crazy knuckle ball like spin. How does he do it? Follow the steps listed below and outlined in the video below.
1) Hit the ball on the valve - hardest part of the ball where you put the air into it 2) Step near the ball to make a divot when you place the ball down 3) Stand directly behind the ball where you want the ball to go 4) Hit the ball with the laces (through the valve area of the ball) 5) Keep your knee down and over the ball 6) No back lift - don't follow through and land on the shooting foot, just strike through the ball
