Outside foot just hitting the ball at the outside left. Short follow through. Ball goes straight for a second and then the curve makes it dip like a valley. Read his book and he goes into details about how he learnt how to take freekicks

Is this skill talent.. or learnt ? How much practice does he have... I can't imagine.

It is the same thing Cristiano and Bale do, but Pirlo is more accurate and uses more than one style for his FKs. From what I understand, there is a method to it: striking the ball hard with part of the foot just above the toe.
Eto’o, Ronaldinho, Deco, and Messi are like good caviar, tender pine-nuts, chemical-free sea salt, and the purest of virgin olive oils, said one of the world's greatest chefs, Ferran Adria of El Bulli restaurant, Before Barca went on to wallop Madrid 3-0 at the Bernabeu.

“I believe the target of anything in life should be to do it so well that it becomes an art. Football is like that. When I watch Barcelona, it is art” — Arsène Wenger, August 2009

watch the heads of the english players, they had no idea where that ball was going, rooney rotated like a key turning, barkley had to turn head :rotf:

Allow me to digress a bit...Juninho was the pundit on the stream I watched for the match earlier today...really struggled with his English but I was really excited to see him..reminded me of that 2000-2001 Champions league season which was awesome

Learnt. He said he watched hours and hours of Juninho's freekicks at I think Lyon and kept doing it. The grounds keeper got tired of fetching the ball for him from the stands and one day it clicked and he was able to do it over and over again.

Italy completed 92.2% of passes vs England. Highest pass pct by any team in a World Cup game since 1966.

What is it about some managers that they cannot react to events on the field...
Pathetic Woy...
Form is temporary; Class is Permanent!
Liverpool, European Champions 2005.

We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

Fell asleep during the match :boo:

How did both teams play? I'm already reading criticism of Rooney. What did people expect? He is a CF/SS, not a bloody winger :roll:

Some are mastering their art in pursuit of legend whilst others are playing Peter Pan with Instagram. Exhibit B in the case of the State vs Ron Atkinson.

you are riright . ron atkinson is the man.
ni**ers are indeed lazy and thick. england should avoid playing blacks at all costs. it was clearly the color of their skin that cost roy the game.
congrats on making that excellent point.
Now shut up and go and away.

As ever, Quick Draw McGraw firing prematurely from a rusted derringer. What is it about reading and understanding that evades those of self acclaimed intellect, smartness. Re-read each post and try to think outside of one's "smartness", phonation may help, so too the Sesame Street alfunbet. Failing that, in keeping with Atkinsonian ideology, a dumbing down is available at request.

Vincent. wrote:1. Another great performance by Pirlo. Despite the fact that England made special plans to contain him, he still managed to create space for himself without sweating too much.

2. What I kike about Italy under their current coach is their ability to play numerous tactical formations depending on the game situation: from patient attacks to counter-attacks to parking the bus to set-pieces - they do everything well. That is something Barca and Spain can learn from them.

3. England tried their best and created enough chances to get a draw. They gambled on speed but they were drained toward the end. They should probably have varied their approach to let the ball do some of the running, thus allowing themselves time to rest during the game...
I think the Dutch do it better!

stop trying to backtrack .
tell us what atkinson's view on black players remotely has to do with cameroon's or england's failure.
thats the beauty of rambling diction like yours .
in the midst of all the convoluted garbage you spew the shameful truth about your hateful psyche and racist inner beliefs sneaks through.

Backtrack, why, for what purpose? Convoluted, twist turned, haphazard and cerebral hemispheres decorated with confederate flags against a wild magnolia background. Thick and Lazy R Us, the uterine conveyor belt, producing darkened dullards at industrial proportions. Pink lipped, broad nosed, fuzzy wuzzies, wooing old Betty's bestest with their only offering, outrageously endowed licentiousness. The curse of Ham and blessing of bratwurst sausage. You do try to understand, sit the exam, effervesce aplomb in spelling one's name and filling in the candidate number, its upon turning the page where it all goes tits up, Exhibit D Ron Atkinson vs The State.

How's the Polo, three buttons down, big smile and latte? #got.

In addendum, 'Racist', hardly, not only a best friend, but a father blackened by nature's hand. One's old earth very much the same. On closer inspection, tis not pulled pork that dresses these bones and tissue, rather custom made apparel as coloured as the bowl of jelly eaten before the "smartness" above. Black, or perhaps a yellow tinged chestnut brown on a tepid autumn afternoon with yesterday's rains quenching the foliage's thirst and choiring Robins renditioning amidst the leafy greenery. Digression. Or is it dressage? Big smiles and Polo horses.

According to Elber (FC Bayern legend & former Brazilian internation) ..................Pirlo confessed that he 'learnt' his freekick skills by studing and coping the master himself- juninho pernambucano :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs:
