[Alex_8]

Does anybody here have any idea how to Swerve the ball back and fourth like c.ronaldo does?

Any Reply will be much appreciated

If you mean what I think you mean I don't think thats physically possible.

Well to get that effect really its more or less luck. You have to either hit the ball with no spin at all and a good maount of force and have it knuckle around.


Or kick it with so much spin that ball warps The warped ball will curve with the spin of the ball and when it starts slowing down will shootback into its orignal shpae then take off in the other direction.

I remember him doing a full scissor a lot he steps over a moving ball with one lege and then the other.

Hip Swivel -- Fake with inside of one foot by swivelling hips toward ball, then reverse direction and take the ball with the inside of the other foot.

I found another thread on the Man Utd section discussing this:

I know what you mean but I'm not sure that's much of a technique, it's just something that happens with those balls if you hit them hard enough. To be honest I'm not even sure he knows quite what he does because of the amount of times he puts the ball into the second tier of the stand.

The technique I am interested in is how he puts top-spin on the ball...
