How To Do a Crossover in Soccer
Learn a crossover in this soccer tutorial! Also called a step over!
Key Points:
1 - Dominant Foot Around Ball from Outside
2 - Turn your Shoulders
3 - Touch To Opposite Side
4 - Take a big touch
5 - Accelerate!
Exercise to Practice:
For an exercise to practice on your own you will need a ball and three cones.
First start off with just the ball and practice the crossover in slow motion. Once comfortable accelerate after doing your move from a stand still.
Now get the cones out. Start at the middle cone, do a crossover and accelerate to the opposite cone you faked towards. Cones are five yards a part.
After a few reps from a stand still, dribble sideways, imaging that defender is coming with you, then do your crossover and accelerate to the opposite cone.
What’s Wrong:
If you are struggling with accelerating after your crossover, you are stepping too far away from the ball.
Bonus Tip:
The Crossover works great when a defender is on your back!
