@Andragon90 Just take what was taught in this video and do the same with the opposite leg!

you should mention to always use your back leg no matter the direction of the cut! will help since defender can get the ball.

@MrKooler22 Do you mean using the foot that's furthest from the defender? Yes definitely! Never try to cut the ball using the foot that's closest to the defender since it would be easier for the defender to take the ball away.

Even if the defender anticipates that you're going to cut, using the foot that's furthest away may end up in the defender fouling you. So that's better than losing the ball!

@SidelineSoccer Yes! when I was taught that trick as a kid, this was a note they had mentioned. I think it is very important! but you hit it on the spot now, good tutorials man! I was browsing Messi dribbling and ended up here :P
