@@coopercook2004 what and you are beyond professional level get a grip bro go back to watching modern goalkeeping probably what you do tbh leave goluremi alone
This will save your wrists and prevent jammed dislocated fingers. This stuff is life saving. It’s also what separates the guys who know from the guys just putting the gloves on because it’s easy.
This is exactly the reason I look3d for this video, didnt know how to stop some fast shots and just used both open palms, and man, thats just a bitch for your fingers.
You and Will John have been a great help in my very rec footballing. I started playing again when I was 40 and have relied on your youtube channels to relearn the game. Today will be my first time in a "competitive" match in about 18 months after an ACL.
* Sorry, my English is not good 😅 I'm from Malaysia. Former ex-goalkeeper, having played at the domestic to international level. Usually in catching the ball, i use 2 types shape. When the ball is high i use a "W" shape. When the ball is at face/shoulder level i use the "Arrow" shape including if the ball is low/ground. But this technique requires constant training and focus, especially to get "ball feeling". Each catch of the ball, we have to get used to absorbing the speed of the ball. Strengthen the wrists, palms and fingers do not get too hard when the ball has arrived. Fingers should not be too close or apart. This is very important. If everything is hardened, the ball will vomit/bounce. So be sure to keep practicing. Every day and don't be lazy!. And now i am retired but have become a coach for the development of my country’s goalkeeper academy, u18.. 😊
For of gloves, i usually bring 2 types, the fingersave type for shooting training (to avoid injury) and the normal type (non-fingersave) for crossing ball training. When on match day, I will use these 2 types of gloves as well when warming up. And for the match then i use the non -fingersave type. My hands are size 11, but i use size 12 gloves because there is an advantage when catching a cross ball. Give it a try! 😊
@@adamazrai4982 Salam.. Itu sebenarnya salahsatu "penyakit" bagi yang baru untuk menjadi penjaga gol 😊.. Saya hanya boleh berikan beberapa tips shja, selebihnya ia perlu di hadapi sendiri untuk masalah "takut bola laju" tu. 1. MELATIH MENANGKAP BOLA DARI BALINGAN/LONTARAN. Biasakan minta rakan² membaling/melontar bola secara tepat ke arah sdra paras perut/pinggang. Kelajuan bola hendaklah lebihkurang 50% dari kelajuan tendangan jenis rembatan. Pastikan balingan itu tepat ke sasaran. Selepas dapat biasakan diri dgn menyerap kelajuan bola tu (tanpa pejamkan mata sebab takut bola laju tu), lakukan latihan tangkapan dari balingan/lontaran bola pula ke paras dada atau muka. Jarak diantara saudra dgn rakan si penendang tu, lebih kurang 5 kaki. Bila sudah biasakan diri dgn 2 kaedah latihan atas tu, tukar pula latihan kebkaedah yg kedua. 2. MELATIH MENANGKAP BOLA DARI TENDANGAN. Sama juga seperti latihan diatas, cuma kali ini melalui tendang pula. Setelah hampir hilang "takut bola" tu, maka cuba dekatkan lagi jarak tu. Tetapi kelajuan bola tetap sama juga. #tips : 1. Sebenarnya, mana² penjaga gol yang "takut bola laju" tu, masih belum menguasai teknik tangkapan yg betu seperti awareness , timing & absorb bila bola tu datang. Itu sebab bila salah tangkap, boleh jadi tercedera atau terlepas begiti shaja. Jadi, perbetulkan semua teknik tu dahulu berhari², pasti selepas ituakan datang confidence pada saudra.. Insya Allah.. Wallahualam
Thanks for the tips! One question, I recently transitioned to none finger save gloves and I was wondering what can I do to prevent my fingers from hyperextension? Will catching the ball using this technique prevent some injury?
hey GK Goluremi! i have now played 8 matches in my season and not made a single mistake. and made alot of crazy and important saves. i am relly talented i don,t really know what to work on. my goalkicks are not flying that high and far but my technic is good. i am only 12 so i don,t know if i don,t have the leg muscles for it. i just wanted to hear if you have any tips for my goalkicks? pls reply
I can save powerful shots but most of the times my wrist twists and the ball goes in, and my wrist hurts after wards, one time I broke my pinky, I'm still 14!!! is there a way to stop this
I’m 10 years old and my dream is to play soccer at Madrid as a goalkeeper and this video really helped me . I was always struggling to catch soccer balls.
Hi i have a question. I have a tournament this Sunday and I'm 13 yrs old and it's my first time playing goalkeeper. So if the ball comes really low and if i don't have enough time to dive should i just put my leg in the way and let it go back into play? Or is there some other technique for that too
You've got the right idea. Basically get any part of your body behind the ball and block it. If you can give the ball direction, always send it away to the side towards the corner post or behind for a corner. Try not to send it directly back out into play. The main thing though is to stop the ball going into the net, anyway you can. the same goes when you dive for the ball, if you can't catch and hold deflect it away from the goal, again towards the corner post or behind for a corner. It's always most dangerous back out directly into play. Away to the side gives you a better chance of recovery and if a forward gets the ball, you've narrowed the angle. The more you practise the easier it will be to dive and get down low quickly. There are also techniques for getting down low and fast. Practise and never be afraid to ask questions from other goalkeepers. be polite and respect their experience and they should be quite happy to answer. Watch them and learn what suits your style best. If you can't catch, you can always punch. Both fists together side byside and try to punch up and away getting as much distance on the ball as you can. With a punch it is easiest and safest to punch it back in the direction it came from. hence height and distance. This will give the ball a good chance of going over and behind whoever hit the shot. I hope you go far and keep enjoying it. I started playing senior football when I was 11 and I'm now a week shy of 61 and I'm still actively playing. I will have been a goalkeeper for 50 years and I'm not about to stop anytime soon. I hope you enjoy being a goalkeeper as much as I have. I still love the look on a forwards face when you stop what for him was a certain goal. A goalkeeper has the hardest job, a forward can miss and it doesn't hurt, but a goalkeeper when he makes a mistake it most often results in a goal. It's down to you to keep you r team in the game and hope your forwards don't miss all the chances that come their way. Every team needs a good goalkeeper to support them.
@@JohnDeCarteretElvis Thanks a lot for your amazing advice, we won the finals and i got best goalkeeper. I will always reflect upon this comment and the time and effort you took to write this. Thanks a lot for your advice. I wish you a very happy birthday in advance
@@jbro_fn - Congratulations to yourself and your team. You obviously played well to get nominated best goalkeeper. One thing a goalkeeper needs is confidence in himself. That can make all the difference in how you react and play. I wish you every success in the future. A forward might get all the glory, but a goalkeeper has the greatest responsibility. His team relie on him to keep them in the game. The forward might score the winning goal,but if the goalkeeper hasn't shut out the goal, then the game is lost. Remeber for the ball to get to you, that it first has to get past the 10 men in front of you. You're always the last line of defence and you might not get the glory, but you get the greatest reward. When you make a great save, your team know that you have just kept them in the game. I hope you go on to play again. I still love playing. You can practise on your own. i used too. I used to live in a narrow lane with granite walls on either side. I'd spend hours hammering the ball against one wall and defending the other. The wall wasn't even so the rebound was unpredictable. This helped me considerably. I have a favourite goalkeeper and it was watching him that got me wanting to be a goalkeeper. His name is 'Gordon Banks.' He was Englands 1966 & 1970 Goalkeeper. Sadly he lost his sight in one eye after a road accident. He is still regarded by many as the greatest goalkeeper in the world. There are many great goalkeepers today, watch and learn. One thing to practise, is getting up again uickly, ready to stop the next shot. This is especially useful when you can only block or parry a shot. Forwards are always following up and being able to respound uickly enables you to block a second shot or a rebound. Again, as your originalquestion, block it with any part of you body, make yourself big. Once you've got the hang of diving, you'll need to learn how to dive at a forwards feet in one on one situations and get the ball. That can seem more frightening than diving. A word of warning, if you do this and hold back going in, that is more dangerous than going in totally commited. A forward is more likely to avoid contact if he sees how commited you are. He will have less time to hink, is more likely to either shoot early and miss, you are more likely to put him off even without making contact with the ball. He is also likely to rethink things as he sees you rushing out and will let you get the ball rather than face the likelyhood of you taking the ball and taking him out in the process. If you're not commited, he isn't going to back out and you're less likely ready. You might not be ready for that information, but I wish I'd had someone who had helped me when I first started. Goalkeepers are Crazy so they say. In fact there is or was a book by that name. I still have my copy which I 've had since I started. Goalkeepers do get hurt, it goes with the territory. This can knock your confidence and I can talk from experience. If this happens, get back on your horse as quickly as possible and if your confidence has taken a knock, work on rebuilding it. The first time will likely be the worst as it comes as a shock to the sytsem. Try not to dwell on it and if and when it does don't let it get the better of you. Forget those who simply tell you to man up, it has nothing to do with that. Work at your own pace. A goalkeeper who lacks confidence will get hurt. A goalkeeper who lacks confidence is likely to pull out of a save and that increases the chances of getting hurt again. When going up for a cross, lift a knee up, this will protect you should a forward jump with you and challenge for the ball. It will also likely put him off as well. The most important thing is to enjoy yourself and keep at it. Work at getting to the level that you want to achieve. I hope that what I've said here makes some sense to you. I'm pleased I was able to help before the big game and thank you for informing me on how you got on. I'm really pleased that you won and did so well. Keep at it and I wish you well. Thanks for the birthday wishes. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VMohcrVKq8g.html Watch the intro and you'll seee a goalkeeper coming out and taking the ball off a forwards feet. A one on one. It looks easy and once you get the hang of it, it is. It is a vital save to learn how to do. You'll be surprised at the number of times you are called on to make this type of save. I don't remeber a match in which I haven't had to do this at least once and most of the time more. Once forwards become aware that you are prepared to do this, they will become more hesitant when facing you in this situation. Even if all you manage is to slow him down, it makes time for your defence to get back and support you.
@@jbro_fn - I thought that this video might be a great help for you when it comes to penalties: PENALTY SAVING secrets from a pro coach | goalkeeper tutoria - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-254hoD_Wjes.html Saving a penalty is the nearest a goalkeeper get to scoring a goal. Saving a penalty can win a game, especially in a shootout situation. Here is one other Video; Great Goalkeeper Saves: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kOGF61t_prw.html In this video you'll see examples of what I told you originally and many other types and ways to save the ball and double saves. This should give you some encouragement. And go with you gut and instincts. And a decent pair of goalkeepers gloves goes a long way to helping you to hold the ball, but also to protecting your hands. Always wash your gloves, this ensures that they last longer and also keeps their grip. You don't need to buy the most expensive, something in the middle will last longer, but not have quite the grip. Also look out for sales. An expensive top of the line pair might only last 1, 2 or three games. Find a pair you're comfortable with and stick with those, but don't be afraid to try others. Gloves are always being improved. In fact I've just changed my go to gloves and they are outstanding. I've gone for a hyprid pair which are made for hard ground and astro-turf which is what I play on most of the time. They are SELLS Golakeeper gloves and they also do them for juniors. I'd recommend that you take a look at them and they always seem to be on offer which is an added bonus. reuich are also a good make and there are others. Some you pay more for simply because of the name. One of the worst for that is Adidas. SELLS are top notch, with a wide variety and the cost isn't too bad and as I said they often have offers on them. If you required padded pants, I use Reuich 3/4 pants and I find them really hard wearing, flexible. I only wear padded pants because I play on astro-turf which really cuts up your knees. Until I started playing on this type of surface which was about five years ago, I never worse such pants or even tracksuit bottoms. I preferred being able to feel my legs. I have gotton used to wearing them, but still would prefer to not wear them. having padded shorts though is a good idea, something that wasn't available in my hey day. When I started playing, gloves with a grip were only just being introduced. gloves have come a long way since then. I mean, I've only just learnt that goalkeepers wear what they call baselayers which can be both padded and unpadded. In my day you simply wore a keepers shirt which at first carried no padding. Now you have in most shirts both elbow and shoulder padding. At the end of the day, wear what you feel most comfortable in and doesn't impede you. But a keepers shirt with elbow and shoulder padding is advisible and doesn't impede, but offers some protection to those areas when coming back down to earth. Don't worry if there appears to be so much to being a goalkeeper, it will all fall into place as you go along and you'll take it all in your stride. It is though the most expensive position to play in. Don't forget a decent pair of shin-pads. Remember that it's not a goal until the ball has completely crossed the line. You'll see some instances of this in this video where the goalkeeper clears it off the line. You can make saves even if you are behind the goal line as long as your hands are on or pitch side as long as the ball doesn't go over the line. You'll see examples of this. The video also shows 'Gordon Banks' making what many claim is the greatest save in the 1970 World Cup for England against Brazil from the great Pele. There is much in this video to learn from. Never give up.
@@JohnDeCarteretElvis thanks a lot for the tips and the videos helped a lot. I was practicing my over arm throws earlier this morning and I'm pretty decent at them now. Im playing football from the age of 8 as a defender and I'm very good at it I'm a right winger and I've scored Many goals in the past but now suddenly I've found the urge to becoming a goalkeeper. I'm going to try my best to become a professional goalkeeper. And if i become a goalkeeper for a premiere league club or something and they asked who encouraged you. I'm gonna take your name 😄🧤
Hey man thax for this really loved it ❤️ but I have a question is it ok to catch the ball with the W technique and immediately bounce it down? Cause I do it all the time when ever the ball is coming straight to my face
Personally I like to try and avoid bouncing the ball into the ground on those type of shots but find myself doing it occasionally. It's not a bad option but can sometimes increase the chances of you spilling the ball by hitting your foot, leg or the ground weirdly verse trying to just catch it cleanly.
Im 33 and first year in goal After some serious injuries so because of thé lack of technique i used this one but last weekend got punished and lost thé game by 1 goal.
Hey im being trying to improve at goalie and I think im pretty decent at diving, but im pretty poor during 1v1s. How could I remember to go up and dive on the ball, because I always forget to even when I try to remind myself or how could I protect the goal in 1v1s?
As a 10 year old, these tips are really useful : my dad told me that they are useful, so thank you so much for these tips. It will be much easier to make a catching save in games. I also have tryouts at Leicester soon -England- so if I use these tips I will do alot better in the tryouts. I've been practicing them and will practice it more in the future to get better at the techniques.
Fingers should be slightly curled to help absorb the shock of the ball and the hands should be pulled back as the ball strikes the hands to absorb the shock. Catch the ball with the fingers and not the palms. You can hear the smack when the ball hits mostly on the palms, which can produce more rebounds.
My step son has a habit of doing the W position when the ball is coming at waist height. He started playing in goals at 6 years old and formed a habit of it. I thought it could have been becease it was sore when the ball hit his stomach and the W position adds more protection. (I've seen David De Gea do it and been criticised about it.) I'm thinking Kids starting at an older age have stronger core so they get the habit of doing the scoop catch. Should I just take him out and repeat the scoop catch (basket catch)? Any advice would be much appreciated 👍
Please don't catch a shot coming to your middle part of the body in w position... Because it can break you hand... You should scope it to your stomach...
i hate those moments where the opposition shoots it at me after the corner and i save it but then another opponent goes bottom bins and they sub me off
I turn the axis of the hands around 30-40 degree in 2 dimensions. This way the full force of the ball gets caught particulary with one hand. There is no way it slips trough. I've had some moments with the diamant and doesnt fully trust it if the ball comes in below 8 feet or something. Upper head is good, but thats a different story anyway.
The up parry for a catch is interesting. I'm 5'10 and did that twice this season. One fell in being a howler. Another parried up and was able to catch it as often it's hard to gauge the speed/weight of the ball
