Soccer: Cruyff Cut Back

Description

Plant the standing leg to the side of the ball, bring the kicking leg back and then forward, as if kicking the ball.

Using the inside of the "kicking foot", drag the ball backwards and accelerate into the space behind.

Coaching points

This practice can be extended by adding in a passive defender.
