Due to the ball\u2019s movement in the air, a volley can be extremely powerful and almost impossible to manage for a keeper.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When hitting the ball, point your toes to the ground. Try to kick the ball during its upward movement and not downwards. Lastly, hit with power!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>1.

If you are close to the goal, striking a fast volley is a good option if you want to make a powerful bending shot while wrong-footing the keeper.
