Become Elite's Top Three Soccer/Football Dribbling Moves Every Player Should Master The Stepover: The stepover is great move when you have space and want to go 1v1 against a defender. 1. Approach the defender straight on so that you can go either way around him/her. (If you want to go to the right, keep the ball on the left side of your body.) 2. When you get about 3-4 feet away from your defender start to perform the move. 3. Swing your left leg in front of the ball and plant it on the left side of the ball. 5. Dip your shoulders down and to the left to get the defender thinking you are going that way. 6. Push out the ball 45 degrees to the right using the outside of your right foot. 7. Switch the feet if you want to go the other way. Drag and Go: The Drag and Go is a great move when in slightly tighter space and when you are not running at full speed at a defender. 1. Approach the defender as you normally would so that you could go either way around him. 2. Angle your body so that you are almost sideways. One shoulder should be pointed at the defender and the other almost behind you. 3. Drag the ball with the inside of your trailing foot, all your weight should be on your front foot. 4. Take a few small steps and when ready dip your shoulders and explode the opposite direction. 5. Push the ball with the outside of your trail foot. Maradona: The Maradona is a move to get out of an oncoming 50-50 tackle, it should not be done as a 1v1 move! 1. The ball should be about equidistant from you and the defender, hence the 50-50 tackle scenario. 2. Quickly approach the ball and get there before the defender does. 3. Pull the ball back with your right foot away from the defender. 4. As you do this start turning backside left so that your back shoulder is leading the spin. 5. Simultaneously, plant your right foot and sweep the ball with your left foot to continue your spin 6. You should almost make a full rotation with your body and now be past the defender. 7. Explode off into space ..............................................................................................................................................................
