Football - Brazilian football philosophy

what you like with football? what you also want to rotate the ball as the player the world? doing it to be learned and pahami.berikut in some ways like where you can memeutarkan the ball like what you want.

Carlos Alberto Parreira, Brazil in the World Cup winning cockroach, said in a interÂview leading up to the Cup Final team to do that it must be "organized defensively, suitable as a sewer or compared with the opponents, and politely express themselves in the 'Brazilian way ' ".

What is characteristic of modern Brazilian football? To play with fast and secure unpredictable and creative offensive attack movement. How do Brasil different approach from the English language? Netherlands? Germany? Let's start by explaining the individual players and then the Brazilian team play.

First, individual Brazilian players are technically very sound, each of the players in the field of play comfortable with the ball at his feet. In addition, he is creative by nature, and while tactically very astute, he also likes to make things simple, sharp. We have learned to expect the unexpected all of Brazil's attack in the area of the field.

Brazil, the player works hard and is very physical in sciÂentific trained, closely monitored methods. This allows a high level of fitness he was doing work that is needed to supply the positive numbers around the ball better offensively and defensively. Combining this with a mixture of fitness individÂual skills, creativity and tactical awareness and make your special players and teams that extraordinary.

Brazil team tactics to distinguish Brazil play more. Parreira again, said, "I do not have to melt our players how to play football, but I do not have to help them develop as a unit. It is not easy to play Brazil because they are up to the individual."

First, Brazil, the approach is to keep the ball moving in the field, if possible, except when crossing, pictures or sometimes when using an open front or change the point of attack from one flank to another with a pass. The need to be developed in connection with the initial training barefoot, when a miss-kicked the ball long or physical pain. Often, too, and a small rubber ball and trusting the ball used to develop better touch.

Furthermore, the angle of attack and hold switch pressure through a series of short passes in the field. The property is guaranteed by the correct position of supporting players. Brazil's 4-4-2 scheme from the point-play on the support of both offensive and defensive side over the player: center offensive Midfielder support the second attacker; self central Midfielder support both outside Midfielders; and one of the defenders in supporting both outÂside defenders and the other in the leaders. We call this the three of the 911 positions in the team and their functions are similar to point guards in basketball. They are always there in case of emergency and available quickÂly switch to the attack angle. We see this support network plays positioned diagonally from the players as' triangulation '.

Finally, there is this sense of constant movement, constant cirÂculation-Brazilian players in the game. A player from the back pass to make, and then walk to the room to make choices more information or to support other people play. At the same time, other players drops to close the space just vacated. There is this constant circulation through Brazil's players play scheme.

The Maradona 7-A Classic Soccer Trick

Diego Armando Maradona invented this very soccer trick in the early 1980s in one of the Argentine Clausura soccer matches at half time.

He combines a set of juggling soccer skills starting from left foot to right foot, then left knee to right knee, then left shoulder to right shoulder and finally heading the ball to complete the whole sequence.

Each part benefits for both freestyle soccer and in any kind of soccer matches like futsal:

Foot

The single most important part that improve your touches which allows you to apply other soccer skills and tricks like dribbling, foot plant, volley and so on.

Knee

Normally used to control in a long ball situation and juggle while moving with the ball.

Shoulder

Less beneficial in a soccer match but very useful in freestyle soccer. Plant, juggle or transfer from shoulder to shoulder or shoulder to head.

Head

Useful for both in freestyle soccer and in a soccer match. A difficult skill to master that requires maximum concentration on the center of the ball and great balance to avoid the ball from falling.

These skills may sound simple but improves your overall ball control, coordination and balance which makes you less vulnerable to lose the ball or possession during an important soccer match.

As for those who are interested in freestyle soccer. Maradona 7 is a good starting point for newbies in the game before trying out the harder tricks like Around the World.

A soccer skill that's worth mastering for both newbies and professionals which in my opinion, the most fundamental skill in the world of soccer.

The Champions' Approach to Life - 4 Simple Steps to Becoming a Champion

As a mother, I have been blessed to have had the privilege of seeing my son, Nick, grow from a baby into his first year of adolescence. I was talking to a fellow mother of a teenager recently on the subject of why our sons are so special. Yes we are biased and I make no apology for that but I have reason to believe that my son is truly one of my heroes and a fabulous role model for all champions.

Our conversation centered around the news that Nick had just received a letter saying that he had been selected to represent his country in a sport that he loves. He has been playing soccer and futsal (indoor soccer) since he was four years old and absolutely lives and breathes it. To the point that in Year 1, at age 6 he wrote that when he grows up he would be a Socceroo. He has gone on to represent his school and town at higher and higher levels, until later this year he will travel to Brazil and Chile representing Australia in the Under 14 squad. We began talking about what does it take to become a champion?

The following four ideas kept coming up and I ask that you think how they might apply to your life.

1. What do I want?

You need to have a clear picture of what your goal is. Nick knew that one day he would play soccer for Australia. I still remember the day that he came home from school saying that the reason he had to learn the national anthem was so he could sing it before any big games. Have a reason to get up every day and do all the mundane training in the cold. You have to be able to see the big picture and often it helps to surround yourself with reminders of these goals. Nick has a picture of his heroes that sits in his room, an unconscious reason to live his dreams and make them come true.

2. How will it happen?

You also need a game plan. What skills do you need to learn, or habits need to form? Champions do what they do without thinking about it because they have done it so many times before. They know where they want to be and have a road map to get there. Nick realised that he needed to make representative teams and worked hard long before that he became a member of these teams, so that the selectors would think about overlooking him. He did not always start off as the "best" player in a team, but soon found out what was needed and worked on improving his skills so that often he finished the season with the "most consistent" award. So work out what steps you need to take to get where you want to be and make small consistent improvements on your skills.

3. I will make it happen

You need to take responsibility for making your dreams come true. I think this involves taking ownership of both the good and bad sides. When things have gone off track ask yourself what have I done to make this happen and what do I have to do to change it? Do not blame anyone or anything else. Firstly check your own actions and attitudes before looking outwards because in the long run that is the only thing that you are in complete control of. But also take ownership of all the positive things too. Be proud and celebrate your achievements, no matter how small they might seem at the time. This will not only make your journey much more enjoyable, it will also bolster your confidence to take the next step.

4. Who else do I need on my team?

Nick was also the under 10 regional tennis champion but had to choose between tennis and soccer. Soccer won as it was his true passion, but when I asked him why, he replied that he got to play soccer with his mates, he had a team to enjoy it with and tennis was only fun at squad time. Every champion needs to have a team with them to get them over the line. A coach, to point out what skills that needs to be worked on and to give ideas for improvement. A trainer, to push them when they do not have the motivation or confidence to take the next step. Mentors, in whose footsteps you can follow and on whose actions you can learn from and improve on, mentors who you may not have even met personally but have done what you want to do. And finally a cheer squad, the people who believe you can do it and stand on the side line in the cold and rain waiting to tell you how wonderful you are regardless of the outcome. Who do you need to get on (or off) your team in order for you to become a champion?


It really is that easy to become a champion and a hero. So you just need to decide where your passion lies and follow four simple steps so that one day soon you can be a champion in the eyes of your parents, your children or maybe a whole nation if that is what you want.

Soccer Coaching Tips - How to Use a Mini Ball

One of my most read blog pieces so far has been a little ditty I put together after I finally figured out how to do an "around the world" with the soccer ball. So that little taste of "how to" success got me thinking a bit about other ways to share what has and has not worked for me over the years.

With that sentiment, and with over a decade of coaching experience and a lifetime of playing experience to bear, this is a segment I have written to impart some of what has been helpful to me.

The foundation of any great player is ball control. I have considered and employed many different techniques to build ball control skills. One such technique is to incorporate the use of the mini ball, essentially a size 1 ball, in to your normal drills.

Because of the decreased surface area, the mini ball requires pin point accuracy of touch. Shooting, trapping, passing, heading - all become exercises on precision. The tendency for most young players is to substitute skill with power, but the mini ball doesn't necessarily reward power - so the player has to stay focused on touch.

At a recent futsal camp at Street Soccer Indoor in metro Atlanta, former Atlante and Colorado Rapids defender Antonio de la Torre, almost exclusively used mini balls to work ball control, passing, and shooting drills with his young attendees. The rationale is simple. According to de la Torre, "if you can master the control of a ball this size [referring to the mini ball], then playing with a regulation sized futsal or outdoor ball will be that much easier."

With that background in mind, players - start by practicing your juggling skills with a mini ball as well as your regulation ball. As you would with your regular ball, use all surfaces of your boots, as well as thighs and head.

Coaches - consider incorporating mini balls in to some of your precision and ball control drills. Any passing drills or shooting drills you currently employ will be enhanced greatly by incorporating the mini ball as again, players will be forced in to accuracy over power. I think you will find this addition to your coaching regime incredibly beneficial.

Soccer Coaching Tips - 3 Pro Tips For Your Success

Just a few top tips that you can start using immediately in your soccer coaching. Discover more in this article.

Often, a select few tips are all it takes for your team to suddenly start winning and a lot of the time, it is about philosophy rather than some kind of magic trick. Here are three that I know you will find really useful.

Teach Your Players The Guile Philosophy

This is something that is a great export of out South America. If you look at the way those guys play, it is about being playful, deceitful, full of techniques, tricks and more. Compare it to the way many Northern Europeans play - solid, safety first and direct. Now who has won the most world cups? The guile philosophy wins hand down in my opinion and you should just instil in your players a renewed passion for playing and not to fear making an ambitious pass or pulling of a good trick in the match. Their confidence will improve in leaps and bounds and so will their game.

Encourage Competition For The First Team

There's nothing worse than a prima donna who think he gets an automatic right in the first team. You're letting him and the team down if you always play people who never put in the effort. Make it clear at the beginning of the season that players must show heart in training and keep in peak physical condition if they don't want to warm the bench up for most of the time.

Futsal

This is a great game that is played widely in Brazil. It's a bit like five a side soccer except that it uses a smaller and heavier ball. So it rewards players when they use close control and short quick passing. Imagine if your players practice and then take to match day with a regular ball - just imagine what wonders they will now be able to perform! I definitely suggest that you pick up a couple of futsal balls, even if it means ordering from overseas over the internet. You will not regret it.

Billy Wingrove - Learn Freestyle Football Vol 1 Review

I'm very keen in freestyle football since last year, 2006. So I watched a few video clips on the internet to learn a few tricks. I thought I'd give it a go on this DVD and see how it can improve my freestyle soccer tricks. Here's the review:

There are several features on this DVD and all are guided by Billy himself.

First Part

Recommends proper equipment like the outfit, shorts, shoes and a soccer ball for freestyle soccer.Teaches some basic warm-ups like stretching knees and calfs before you start practicing freestyle soccer. Then some basic juggling soccer skills and simple stalls on each part from foot to head.

Second Part

You'll learn some intermediate skills like Guardiolas. You'll also learn on combining previous skills that you've learned to form a simple combination. There are 3 combinations showed in this DVD varying in difficulty levels.

Third Part

In this section, you'll learn on how to apply certain tricks in the soccer field. Billy will show you on a futsal turf on how to do soccer tricks like Penalty X, Cyclone and many more.

In between the 3 parts of this DVD will show Billy Wingrove's background, his favourite Premiership team, his career and where he started playing freestyle soccer.

My Recommendation

After watching this DVD for several times, I found that the DVD is useful for newbies in freestyle soccer. If you're unfamiliar to basic soccer skills, then this is the DVD for you because Billy will show step-by-step with slow motion in each soccer trick. But for those who are intermediates and advance freestylers may get disappointed because the lack of cool, hard-to-do tricks.

Overall the DVD has an excellent replay value and it's worth investing to start your freestyle soccer adventure.

Futsal Is A Great Way to Develop Skills, Ball Bandling

Futsal is derived from the Spanish and Portuguese word Wanted to show some Sala / salon de Futebol de salão and each, which in English means indoor football. Therefore, the debate is the type of indoor football (soccer). This is the only indoor soccer game approved by FIFA. FIFA Futsal has been holding the World Cup since 1989. He played between two teams of each of the five players, including goalkeeper. It consists of two halfs every 20 minutes. From the same pitch with a bulldozer from a normal soccer pitch only in the dimensions of the smaller (25 meters minimum and maximum length of 42 meters), approximately the size of a basketball court. Futsal is different in the United States with the five-a-side football. The main point of difference is that in the debate there is no board success. Is far more suprerior game in technique and ball handling skills and is a game.

The ball used in the debate is smaller than the ball that is normally used in football games and far too heavy. Weight does not allow it to bounce the ball a lot. 30% have the ball bounce less as compared with the normal soccer ball. Thus, the player is forced to rely on their skills and not rebound from the ball to take a picture or pass the ball. Because there is no success for the board to bang the ball, which players must rely on their pass and tackling skills. The pitch is small in the debate and defend the ball into the property difficult, is to improve the distribution of skills. Futsal improve the mental ability of the players because they have been thinking several steps to the front and must use one touch passes in time, because there are a lot of room for movement. This depends on quick thinking from the players and increase the share of the second decision-making ability.

Futsal help players make the team better, because it involves many players, accurate pass to player, which is required if the team wants to maintain ownership of the ball. Therefore, it is increasing the players close-quarter feet. It also helps in improving the skills of the shooting as one of the images will not rebound against the wall and the goal is much smaller than the regular soccer goal. Many of the images taken during the game; this in turn encourages the player shooting from the trust. In the game bulldozer also help in increasing the goalkeeper's skills, as he can not touch the ball with his hands when the ball was brought back to him. The ball can go back to the goalkeeper only once during all of the games. Futsal also decrease the number of foul play, as players are not allowed sliding tackles and shoulder promise. There is also the foul limit and five players are not allowed to make a wall when a free kick in the sixth foul being taken. This confirms the fact that mental bulldozer to improve the situation with the player side too physical.

Young players to develop reflexes, quick thinking and ability to pass and shooting skills better with it. So to help improve the overall fundamentals of football with more effect. Some of the biggest players like Bebeto of Brazil, Pele, Ronaldo, Socrates, Zico owe them the skills to handle the ball in the game somewhere. Even the current and future skilled players such as star Cristiano Ronaldo and Ronaldinho have also play their fanservice in youth.
