The finishing of a move, in a soccer game, is one of the most important moments. A good finishing ability is a major factor in assessing a player’s quality.
A player’s finishing ability depends on several factors, such as decision time (which should be as short as possible), finishing space, or shooting technique. It is precisely the combination of all the above factors that differentiate the players’ finishing quality, making them good or bad.
Providing players with tools so that they can develop their finishing skills can be a challenge due to the complexity and amount of details that encompass the finishing. To help coaches develop their players’ shooting skills, we’ve prepared a new video with shooting exercises.
