Zico could do this blindfolded.

@staccatofiddler I agree that Zico was far better than R. Carlos, but I strongly disagree when you say that he is the best brazilian left-back of all time. Nilton Santos, Carlos Alberto, Everaldo and Junior were FAR BETTER than him, especially Nilton Santos. Roberto is very good attacking, but ridiculous defending.

albeit Roberto Carlos can give more curl to the ball. Also Rivelino Roberto Dinamite and Claudio Branco knew how to take free kicks with the outside part of the foot. I also suggest you to watch the most difficult free kick in the football history. Please, watch Maradona free kick against Juventus in Juventus vs Napoli in 1985. He shot in Zico style. I'm pretty sure you found that easy, but I can ensure you that is not like that. I'm not polemic.

Best regards!

@Daniel96sj yee Roberto Carlos free kick against france was crazyyy goal.

and I watched Eden Aleixo free kick against argentina and his free kick was like a rocket loll

[staccatofiddler]

@Daniel96sj So concluding, Zico which of course could kick the ball very hard, preferred the precision over the power of the shot, Roberto Carlos the power over the curve ( neverthless it's notorius all over the world the famous free kick versus France ). I suggest you to watch the Eder Aleixo free kick against Argentina in 1982 which producted the first goal by Zico. Eder could kick a LEATHER ball at the speed of 174.5. The free kick technique was the same used by R. Carlos (follows)

[staccatofiddler]

@Daniel96sj I actually know both of them and the first they are very different. Zico preferred kick the ball with the inner part of the foot while Roberto Carlos is one of the most specialist of the three last finger shot. He shots with the outside of the foot, but in these type of shots he can't know where the ball exactly goes. Granted! Roberto Carlos is a professionist so he of course can send the ball where he wants, but Zico was precise at millimeter. ( follows)

[Daniel96sj]

@staccatofiddler I mean that Roberto Carlos is a better FREE KICK TAKER, obviously zico is better overall player.

you should check out his free kicks

[miniroll32]

@xXAe0N - Yes, and he is called Pelebest Marazico!

[staccatofiddler]

@Daniel96sj Are you serious? How can you compare Zico to Roberto Carlos? In Brazil Zico is the third soccer player everytime after Pelè and Garrincha ( and I'm not so much sure for Garrincha as second ). Granted, Roberto Carlos of course is a very big player and the best brazilian left lateral defender everytime... but Zico was head and shoulders better than Roberto Carlos, no doubt about this
