I see it all the time on the pitch, excellent dribblers but with a weak shoot. The best jugglers and dribblers are pretty much useless in a football team if they can’t shoot to goal. You need to learn how to shoot with power.
A powerful shot is not about size or strength, it is about technique. Surely going to the gym and developing the right muscles helps, but you can be a small player and still kick the ball with power. Brazilian legend Roberto Carlos was known for his powerful kick. During a friendly match against France, he is scored a free kick by shooting the ball at 137 kmph. Roberto Carlos is only 1.68 m tall.
Have a look at the video below, Michael demonstrates how to shoot with power.
