- Today, we delve into the basics of controlling the ball out of the air with a controlled first touch. We dive into two of the most common techniques and then finish with a less-utilized technique that will not only help speed up your play - and make you look super stylish and composed in doing so, but also allow you to trust your first touch, when the pressure of controlling the ball is really on..
I hope you enjoy :)

ive gotten 2 goals and 4 assists as a defender just because of your tutorials,so i cant thank you enough
That’s bloody awesome!! Go you!!
Sick bro you a fullback ?
nahh a cb@@ArashLF
As a defender I got 1 goal from RB (a 30 yard screamer vs the 1st place team (we were 5th out of 12 at the time) and I got 13 assists since I'd overlap alot and a few from set pieces

Beginning my Journey in Football you have helped me develop as a player so much and so id like to say thank you. Thank you very much.
That’s awesome to hear Josh! Enjoy the journey and thanks for being here 🧡
How old are you?
@@Meschi-does not matter
@@oj818over 18 and u can’t call it a journey
Say thanks by donating money
Thanks Tony, it seems to me that the simpler the technique, the more detailed your videos are. Certified CZcams GOAT
Wow thanks Rich, that’s very kind of you 🙏
Another superb video, thanks. I love controlling the ball with my thigh, I’m always encouraging the kids to use it during their games.
If by chance you’re doing requests, I’d love to see a video on drills that can safely be done indoors in the home, given a certain amount of room. Here in Canada, we don’t get to use our gardens for 4 to 5 months of the year. Cheers!
Thank you 🙏 it’s such a useful skill. I often have players come through that have never been taught. Instead they tend to hop super high to control it on the instep. Still effective, but a lot slower in the transition
Great suggestion. Is there anything in particular that you want to improve/work on?
Regardless, it’s on the list of videos 👍
@@thefootballfolk being in close proximity to breakables (my wife would kill me if she reads this, so mums the word, eh?), close control drills, getting familiar with the ball at both feet, small delicate touches, exercises to improve strength and range of movement etc.
Thanks again!
I honestly can’t appreciate content like this enough. Your tips have helped me a ton in becoming a better soccer player. Thank you.
great video, great explanations, great details with slow motion. I specially like that you start with a proper body preparation and position. Keep doing your wonderful job!
🧡🧡🧡🧡
Loved it mate ❤
Fantastic information mate. Thank you 🤌
🧡🧡
This video is beautiful man. Especially when the ball hit your foot in slow motion, those scenes were 🤌🏻😘
Love The Videos Bro! Keep At It
Thank you matey 🙏🧡
Great expository which makes learning easy and wanting to heed more
These videos are so great, concise and straight to the point with quality info
Appreciate it mate 🙏🏼
Could you make a video on defending? Like tackling and maybe defensive headers
Yes, a video about man to man defensive corners
It’s on the list I promise 🙏
As always a brilliant video. You are such a legend mate 🤜🤛
🧡🧡🧡
Thanks bro your videos help out a lot!!
🙏🙏🙏
Great video. You mentioned absorbing the energy which is really the key for all touching. Touching without control is meaningless.
💯
Sir, how about controlling with the chest?
great vid. straight to the point :)
🙏🧡🙏
Thank you
Absolute hero, cheers for this tutorial brother 🐐
Appreciate it mate 🧡 - thanks for the comment and your support!
the top of the foot touch killer skill to master, this one in particular is either you have or don't. it's a comfort level skill once this wired in you dont even look at the ball when u do it. my go to touch skill when defenders get too intimate and tryn to guess my spaces. top of the foot over the head or top of the foot through the legs. #deadly
Good video Tony, very enjoyable
Thank you matey 🧡
Top of the foot thing can also be executed in a sweeping motion with your legs very relaxed and knees a bit bent
Particularly if you're stationary and the ball is coming to your lift side a bit, you can just trap it to your right with outside of your right foot
I love your videos and this is a nice tutorial, can you bring some content for footballers exercises to do in gym that transfers in the field?
Absolutely Jefferson 🧡 thanks for the support and comment. I have gotten a few other requests like this, so consider it on my ‘to-do’ list 👌🏼
I prefer top of my foot as it’s similar to a kick up, it’s also the cleanest landing that has NO bounce whatsoever when pulling the foot down. It’s just a matter of how quick it’s done.
Anyone know what brand of ball launcher is used at 3:38 ?
The best channel for football technique.
Thank you 🙏
This acc helpful Ty
Glad to hear 👍🧡
The vini one 😂😂😂
Make a video about bowed legs
The in-step one is most fundamental. If you get perfect at this, which most decent players are, the other two become easier without thinking about it.
Please make a video on dribbling in tight spaces
I’ll add it to the list :) Have you checked out my previous video around dribbling? That should also help a bunch
New video coming!😁😁😁
Can I give a suggestion?
Maybe you can teach more in the video, like give some flexibility of hip training suggestions after the "The Instep" skill?
Most amateur players lacked their body control more than skills, So I think maybe you can teach them how to improve their body control to doing skills well after the skills explanation?
Just in my experience only.
Hope you can understand my poor English😀😀😀
I'm a trouble maker🤣🤣🤣
You trouble maker, you!! 😂
Great suggestion! I’m always mindful not to overwhelm people too much, but this is definitely something to keep in mind for upcoming videos 👍🧡
Your English is fantastic! I wish I could speak another language.
Appreciate you being here 🙏
@@thefootballfolk
Thanks for the reply! You know I'm a big fan of you😁
I agree with you that not overwhelming people too much is a great idea.
I'm just considering that you're a great fitness coach, I think it's the shining point than any other producers.
Appreciate you're always making good video👍👍👍
Is it possible for you to do a video on an analysis of lionel messi and how he gets past defenders using body feints and etc
🤓
Great Video as always but please tell me where do you live it looks beautiful
Thanks Tristan 🧡 I live in Wellington, New Zealand 😁
Thanks for the videos mate but i have a question
Is is true that having large feet make doing a first touch more difficult?
You’re welcome mate. I’m not sure to be honest. I personally don’t think it makes a difference. I have size 11.5 US feet, and I would say one of my best attributes is my first touch :)
I think it really comes down to body awareness, and knowing how to use it to your advantage
@@thefootballfolk Ah that's reassuring :) thanks
We back with vids 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥
😏🙌🧡
How to do footstall tutorial.
Any tips on how to control the ball while you are traveling at speed towards it and its being passed towards you suddenly? Sort of jumping to absorb impact?
Spot on 👍 you may see a couple of the shots where I’m running towards the ball like you mentioned. And hopping and controlling it as you’re on the way down tends to be the best timing for control and speed in my experience
@@thefootballfolk Ah on the way down.. Never really thought about that detail. I'll test that out asap.
Give this editor a raise
Thanks matey. I’ll give myself a pat on the back 😂🤣
Not even gonna lie this Guy is the best

The best pitch in Eastbourne 😂
Open your own football club i swear that would help alot of people in your area
common misconception: instep= inside of your foot. it's not.
Well, I’ll be damned. I had no idea it was the top of the foot 🤯
..I mean, that’s what I meant all along 😅
This all works very well until your goalie smashes the ball 20 meters in the air and you have to control it while a 45 years old construction worker blows his breakfast smell into your neck
😭😭😭
When dribbling negative thought says “I might lose the ball and I might get concede a goal”and this keeps repeating over and over again and this makes me mess up the things that I have practiced dribbling drills alone by myself over and over again due to the panic that is happening. do you know how to fix this?
Thanks for sharing. This really comes down to a lack of confidence, like not fully believing in yourself or not wanting to let your team mates down. We all go through this at some point. It’s quite normal.
My suggestion is to keep practicing the fundamentals until you’re really confident in your technique. But also realizing that it’s ok to lose the ball. The very best in the world lose the ball a lot. I believe Messi had the most incomplete dribbles of the ball in league 1 last year (ie lost the ball), and its due to him trying things that most wouldn’t time and time again. So try things, mess up, and learn from your mistakes 🧡🙏

Why can’t Benjamin amends control a football, 2 bloopers of him are in this vid hehe

Great request! I am currently planning some future workouts/programs. Stay tuned 😉
Can you talk about the best way to improve stamina and running as a football player this is my weakness
Thanks for the request 🧡 I’ll make sure this is on the list - cheers mate!
Watching this 45 minutes b3fore training
i have a question for the football folk. Do you live in Eastbourne?
That’s not the instep. That’s the side foot. Instep is the laces.
You taught yourself these basic skills when I was a kid many years ago, and they’re still the most important ones to perfect. Too many kids nowadays think they need 101 silky “look good” skills and yes they’re good to have on you locker, but not 100 percent important.
Video 4 of asking for the trivela tutorial to be expedited
Appreciate the reminder, but it’s going to be a while until I get to this. There are other video requests I have lined up from way back. As you can imagine it takes a lot of time and effort to turn around a video, so the list is long 👍
Top of the toe is my only good touch 😭
You forgot the chest touch
HI STILL HERE REMEMBER ME
One of the originals .. here since what, 2k or so? Cheers for the support mate. Means a lot 🧡

Hello.........
All of this is useless because there’s pressure in a game , where 2 people are marking you. You’re basically standing alone using cones , anybody can trap when they are alone champ. Deal with game situations realistically
But you still can practice the touches like they show in the video. The way to learn stuff is going from easy to hard. Of course it is harder to do it in game, but when you build your confidence and sense for Ball control with the exercises they show in the video you will probably be able to do it in Game aswell.
So following your logic you should never train anything using cones because its not realistic compared to an ingame situation you literally make no sense
THIS is literally how you handle game situations “realistically”. Footballers do this all of the time in professional matches. Please don’t be so annoying and comment without even watching the video. I bet you don’t even play football.
Every professional Ik and have played with use these drill, the cones aren’t supposed to defenders just an area so you can practice keeping the ball close to you. Dortmund are famous for their high tech version of this where balls fly at them and they then have to play it into a small goal. You seem like that stupid player who wouldn’t pay attention to you coach and just wait for the scrimmage at the end of practice
This is as realistic as it gets unless you have friends with you...
Top of the toe is my only good touch 😭
