Well, even if this video is put to classic music and at times looks like a ballet.  You can really get some good ideas of the following to work on for soccer footwork:

  • Look at the all the great stretching these guys do.
  • Check out all the warm ups and even cool downs these athletes are doing
  • Plyometrics and working running form through each and ever exercise
  • Working out with Rubber bands
  • All the footwork, cones, etc
  • Even doing strength exercises…who would have thought soccer playerd did that ;)
  • Focusing on improving all the time!

This is a not only a great video clips put some some interesting music leaving you with an every entertaining soccer video. The song is “Tango Brilliante for orchestra”.
