Yes, you can control the ball with the side of the foot. The principles of keeping the foot relaxed to absorb the impact of the ball applies regardless of the contact area that you use.

No problem 😉

Both ways of crossing can be used in the right situation the main thing is to choose the right tool for the unique situation you face in the game.

There is certainly a time and place for a cross in the air but many times at the lower levels of the game players are crossing the ball high without thinking about it and the attackers are often not good enough to finish such chances hence the point in the video.

These types of passes work very often even at the top level of the game and are scored every week when looking at the highlights of all the games in any of the top European leagues. It may look simple but it’s hard to defend at speed as the defence often drops leaving the cut back space open for a late run into the box or for a player who simply stands still while the defence drop towards their goal. The partnership and assists between Dani Alves and Messi and Jordi Alba and Messi are a perfect example of this working over and over again. Teams know what they are going to do but still can’t defend it.

@@TheFootVault i understand your point but thats completely different thing from a cross. to say that a cut back is better than a cross is just simply false. each one is used differently for example if the box area is crouded with defenders the cut back will probably never work so you r better crossing it. but if you are in a counter attack situation or their defense is unorganized then its better to try to cut it back or try dribble your defender then cut

I've used this tactics and I failed because half of the enemies team were defending the ball

Use your scanning before you receive the ball to make the best decision for the specific situation that you face in the game. Each unique situation requires a unique solution. This video highlights one of those situations you might face where players will stop the ball dead with their first touch when they have space in front of them to exploit.

@@KieferDuelasScanning before you receive the ball will help you make better decisions when you receive it. You definitely shouldn’t do this every time without thinking about it, only use it when there is space to exploit.

Nice bro 🔥
