If you want to be a kicking expert in football and score all the goals you must master curling the ball. Pele, Beckham and Roberto Carlos are famous for their swerving free kicks as they had mastered this technique. This useful skill can be used in almost every aspect of the football game and is essential in order to become the best.
In order to swerve the ball you can either use the outside of the foot to swerve the ball away from you, or using the inside of the foot to bend the ball inwards. You have to kick the ball off centre on the opposite side to the side you want the ball to swerve to. Make sure to follow through with your stroke, kicking the ball hard away from you with lots of outside spin. Try swivelling on your non-kicking leg when trying to curl the ball with the inside of the foot. This movement will help with the balance and contact needed to produce a good inside of the foot swerve.
