3 essential soccer tips for change of direction

  • You can use a change of direction to shield the ball from a defender
  • You have single moves, double moves and triples which can all be used to protect the ball and send defenders the wrong way
  • Combine change of direction moves with passing. So use a move to create some space to make a good pass to a team mate.
