    Easy way to solve fake shots:
    I think if keep your knees from hittting the ground and stay really alert you can quickly recover from a fake shot. Just make sure on the recovery block you don’t plant your knee down and don’t commit to a tackle bc what a lot of players do is that they know the defender is urgently trying to recover and so the defender throws ina slide tackle and the striker fakes the shot again.
    Don’t get got! Stay alert and don’t commit but still of the effectiveness of committing
    This is something I’ve seen from top tier defenders in the prem and Seria A

    Bruh the attacker can fake shot and cut out do not block like that, notice that the side he’s not trying to block is free. Just try to block with one leg by extending your leg without losing balance or overcommitting.

    Thanks for the info! Could you put the technique at the start of the shorts? Then go into explanation playing the full video. So the viewer gets 3 positive reinforcements and its easier for them to look at the technique again since the short will replay.

    Just stand between the opponent and the goal and the shots block themselves. If you are close to the opponent, you have already won, and if you are not close enough, crouch down, enlarge the outline of your body.

    I do not recommend something like this. It is strange to me. Hands behind your back outside the penalty area. In 0:18–0:20 you are in a position from which it will be difficult to change direction, and generally difficult to react. The opponent makes a fake shot and we all know how that ends.

    Pov: the striker pulls out the fake shot, humiliating you badly, you lose all of your aura. Only way here is to change country and start a new life

    In my experience its souch easier to block at there feet, the closer your foot is to the ball the less distance to block so as they make contact you make contact and even if its a fake shot its still fine you can poke it away
