Hey guys, it's Massimo from best soccer tricks dot com. In this video, I'll be
showing you how to beat a goalkeeper on a breakaway. Alright guys,
so a couple things when you're going up on a breakaway against the goalkeeper
obviously the pressure is on, the defenders are running back, you have the
goalie rushing towards you. So there's not much time to act, you really have a
split second, you have to act fast you're gonna decide are you going to shoot, are you
going to deek the goalie? Really, you have to look for that opening and you got to
act fast because if you hesitate, if you even take a moment to hesitate, the
goalie will be there, the defender will come back and get the ball so you really
have to act fast as the player on the breakaway. So, it
also depends the angle that you're running at if you're running down the
middle you'll have both sides if you're running down from the left maybe you'll
see that the right is a bit open that the left is a short side you don't want
to go short side. So there's a lot of factors that you have to take in to play
once you're going on once you're going on the attack. So I'll show you a bit now
I have a goalie in net, in front of the net and I'm just going to attack him and
basically I'm going to see what openings there are and what my best option is on
the breakaway. So here we go.

So there I saw that the right side was opened, I saw that he gave me that right
side so basically I decide to just curl it around him, wrap my foot around and
make sure that ball got straight around. So we'll go again.

There I decided not to shoot right away but instead I saw that the goalie was
coming out, so I had to step on him push it to the side, got me in the open net
and sort of put it away.
Also, another thing that you can think about if you see that the goalie is
really coming out aggressively and you see is coming out very early, what you
can do is you can try that chip shot if you're able if you're comfortable with
obviously you see you have the time, he's coming out early, a little chip shot get
it right over the goalie and he won't have a chance of saving it.

See the goalie came out early there I saw it, I recognized it, went for the chip
hit the post, but you got the idea.

It's all about composure, when you're heading towards the net. If you don't
have your composure, your shot is going to be wild, you won't have really much control
about where the ball is going to go, you're just going to swing at it and hope for the
best. You don't want that obviously. Yes, the pressure's on, the breakaway isn't
something that happens all the time but when it does happen, keeping your
composure is the most important thing it's like a penalty you have to be in
control, know where you want to bring the ball, shoot it where you want to shoot it
and just be mindful.

though there's a lot of pressure in that one moment. Make sure you keep your
composure, make sure you control the ball, make sure you get enough power on that
ball and you shoot it to where you want to shoot it. Look for the weaknesses and
take advantage of it. For more videos, please go to BestSoccerTricks.com.
