CR7 is one of the greatest footballers of all time.

Once you learn this technique, you can replenish your arsenal with Ronaldo's kick. To find out more, proceed to step 1.

Steps

Method 1 of 2: How to Take a Penalty Kick

Cristiano Ronaldo is known for his free kicks and their signature style of throwing the ball like a rocket.To retry the free kick from Cristiano Ronaldo, you need to learn to spin the ball very little when hitting, causing it to fly sharply downward, while aiming it right on target at an incredible speed that will make it difficult to defend the goal.

1 Position the ball so that the valve is facing you. When Ronaldo takes a free kick, he always stays in line with the ball so that his foot hits the valve. It's hard to know if this valve hit really affects the trajectory of the ball, or if it's just superstition, but you can try.
2 Take a few steps back to the right. Ronaldo usually takes 3-5 steps back before the free kick. Then he stands, lowering his arms straight and placing his legs very wide, wider than his shoulders. When approaching the ball, he makes several vague steps that usually confuse defenders and the goalkeeper, and they rush to the sides, because they do not know exactly when Ronaldo will hit the ball.
3 Place your non-kicked foot and lean back to be at the angle necessary for the ball to arc upward.
- In his free kicks, the ball tends to fly upward very quickly, as if exploding at the foot. This is due to the rapid leaning back right before the kick. If this is done correctly, the ball will not rotate, but will fly up in an arc and quickly rush down, or fly in a zigzag, depending on the force of the blow.
4 Hit the ball in the center with the instep, the part where the bone runs from the big toe to the ankle. Aim to hit the valve of the ball that you directed at yourself at the beginning.
- To launch a ball with a rocket effect, you need to launch a non-spinning ball. Try to hit the center of the ball as evenly as possible without twisting it with your foot.
5 Aim the ball with your foot. This is the most important part of the strike. Grab the ball with your foot and direct it where you want it to fly, lifting your standing foot off the ground. Bring the knee of the kicking leg straight up, not to the side as you would with a traditional kick.
- After touching the ball, imagine that you want to reach your chin with your knee. If done correctly, the foot you hit should be the first to land on the ground. Now step back and contemplate your blow, which can bring unpredictable success.

Method 2 of 2: Passing and dribbling the ball

One of the amazing qualities of Ronaldo's game is his ability to create and share opportunities for his team, looking for the best moments in order for them to score a goal. In other words, his skills in long passes and corner kicks. He can also move around the entire field, playing from the left, right, or right in the center of the attack. His ability to be brilliant and equal in possession of both legs makes him one of the greatest players of all time.

1 Take the ball into the box. Unlike Beckham, known for his long, elegant, arched, truly English passes, Ronaldo makes rather small basketball passes behind his back. He kicks the ball deep into opponent's territory, then lifts it into the air across the field to his teammates, who are preparing to head or score it into the goal.
- Despite the fact that Ronaldo often plays in the left half of the field, he changes his position depending on the circumstances of the game and can go to the center to receive the pass.
2 Throw the ball up towards the player you want to pass. To pass the ball in Ronaldo style, kick the ball with a straight leg, placing the other one far behind the ball. Move the foot that follows the ball just slightly after hitting, allowing a player on your team to head-catch it.
3 Practice serving with both feet. One of the coolest things about Ronaldo is that he seems to be equally good at both feet. His left foot passes are as accurate as his right.Train your non-dominant leg by doing ball dribbling exercises with both feet and taking as many non-dominant kicks as possible on goal. Practice the basic technique until both legs are equally strong, even if you are uncomfortable using your non-main leg.
4 Control the ball using tricks. Ronaldo's dexterous maneuvering allows him to pass on time, making his game unpredictable and exciting. If you want to be able to get the ball that far in half of your opponent, you need to be able to dodge the defenders and drive them to death.
- Practice deceiving maneuvers to imitate Ronaldo's dribbling. Also try and practice his characteristic rabona pass.
5 Try the “dooky” feint. Dribble the ball towards the defender. When the distance between you is 3 seconds, roll the ball very quickly with one foot. Step back quickly with the same foot.
