How to Do the Elastico and Why It Matters in Football Training
The Elastico is a flashy and effective dribbling move that uses a rapid outside-to-inside foot motion to deceive defenders. The player pushes the ball outward with the outside of the foot before instantly snapping it back inside, creating a sudden change of direction. This move builds close control, creativity, and unpredictability, making it a favorite among attacking players.
