In soccer, what is the best way to get around a defender?

Depends on the situation- if you have a teammate nearby, the easiest and quickiest way to get around the defender is pass the ball and run past the defender, so that your teammate can pass you the ball back and then you are in the clear.  If you are alone, often times you can dribble up and make a quick move or fake and then once the defender bites, you take off the other direction with speed to get past them.

kicking the ball should help

if a player is beyond the defence of the opposition while the pass has been made to him, he is declared offside. so this player has to be behind the defensive line of the opposition to eliminate such an advantage.

use your body to shield the ball.\nkeep moving, the longer you stand still the easier it is to get a read on the ball and take it.\ndon't dribble too much.

When the ball is played behind the defensive line whilst and offensive player is behind the defensive line.\n\nAs for prevention tactics it depends wether you're the offensive or defensive. Offensive you have to make sure that you know where the defensive line is at all times by being careful where the ball drops, make sure play is as fluid as possible if playing through balls. As for the defensive aspect, man marking is the key.\n\nComplicated i know.

Well you should always stay on your girl unless another girl is open with the ball and heading towards the goal. Then you should slide and ask a teammate to pick up your girl. Also practice checking so you can do it legally. You can press on your girl with your arm but make sure not to press with your stick.\nHope this helps!\nDefense is the best!

First decide whether you want to shoot towards which side.\nIf you want to shoot to the right, choose your starting point (of running) a bit to the left of the ball.\nThen face towards the right corner of the goal. Run ahead and hit with all your might.\nDo the opposite to shoot to the left of the goal.\nI read this in a football magazine and since then I have scored 95% of my attemped penalties.

use your toes with the right foot to step over and push the ball to the left and feint to the right...at the same time stepping over with your left to exaggerate going to the right... \n\n...now the ball is a foot(12 inches) away from the outside of your left foot...flick it left fwd and away from defender...and go left...\n\nyou need to swivle hips so they fall for your fakes...good luck

Practice playing pick up games with people whenever you can.  Run often, both sprints and jogging, to be as fast as possible.  Juggle the ball with your feet and knees and practice taking shots on goal and moving down the field as much as possible.  Finally, watch professional soccer to see how they do it--passing and playing as a team is another important factor in being a skilled player!

Catch the defense offguard and take advantage of what they leave open for you. Use the shot clock and time outs to your advantage. Try pressing on the inside to draw the foul or taking a hook shot.

You can go around them...but not through them.  I think the most important part of defending the screen though is to decide with your team/teammates how are you defending?  There are two main ways..1) switch-so the person picking you now becomes your responsibility or 2) fight through the screens-which you may have to help each other out with at times.\nI think the other aspect you have to take in also is whether or not they are setting good screens.  Are they sticking their arms out and holding?  Are they moving?  All of these are illegal-and make getting through or around them alot harder.

BEST DEFENDER NOT ALL ROUND FOOTBALLER

here's the rule of thumb you tell you're team to stick with the person that they're supposed to be defending at all times but also teach them the importance of footwork and to move their feet when there man moves one more thing to teach them would be don't pay too much attention to the other player's eyes pay attention to the ball at all times because a person's eyes will lie but the ball never lies

I would slow things down.  I have a friend who is a great dribbler, but many times he tries to do too much and goes 100 mph.  Dont always look to beat your defender with the dribble.  Protect the ball and make smart passes.  Use your dribbling skills as a weapon, but dont always break out the skills. If you watch the good dribblers, for instance Iverson.  He wont break players ankles all the time, sometimes he will do simple old school dribbling, like just with one hand nothing fancy.  He will then break out a good move.  The defenders never know when it is coming and that makes it much harder to defend.  Use your skills wisely and they will be much more effective when you finally use them.  Ball possession is key in b-ball so make sure you are doing the smart thing instead of trying to make your defender look like a fool all the time.

many 1 make sure you direct your defense,set the wall with a freekick on the right spot,with cornerkicks make sure somebody is by the first and second post.always make a line in the middle of the goal with your shoe,so you always no where the middle of the goal is.and be a leader that will intimedate the other team last but not least you are in control of the offside you are the one that send your defense forward and in the same time you come out your goal timing is verry important.
