Have you ever wondered how Cristiano Ronaldo can dribble the defenders without being stopped? If you want to know, read on!
Steps
Step 1. To dribble like Cristiano Ronaldo, you have to be very fast
To improve your speed, you'll need to sprint every day and, more importantly, stretch before playing or running. You need stamina, so run around the field and eat very healthy.
Step 2. You must be able to do the scissor movement
To do this you will have to swing your foot around the ball and, at the same time, feint your body in order to fool the defenders, who will think you are going the opposite way to where you are really heading.
Step 3. You must be able to do the "Ronaldo chop"
To do this you will need to jump with one foot and, at the same time, use the inside of the other foot to move the ball in the opposite direction. I prefer to jump with the left foot and use the right foot to go to the other side, but it is subjective!
Step 4. You must be able to cross the ball into the small area
Use your speed and your tricks to beat the goalkeeper and cross the ball in the small area!
Step 5. You need to have good close ball control
When dribbling, you don't have to send the ball 5 meters away, because in this case you will be stopped and your teammates may also think you want to pass it. Always keep the ball close to you, as if it were glued to your feet! Try dribbling around your house and the movements will become natural over time.
Step 6. Run on stairs to improve speed or around cones, sprint to develop your speed and agility
