The Outside of the Foot Pass/Shoot - Ricardo Quaresma

The "Trivela" kick is a sneaky kick because it comes off of the outside part of the foot. Ricardo Quaresma, currently a player on FC Porto in Portugal, is a master of it and thus a very dangerous player. Quaresma ability to use the outside part of the foot can deceive a defender, because he can make a pass to the side in the blink of an eye. Using the outside part of the foot during a shoot can put a wicked spin on the ball confusing a goalkeeper, who may think at first the ball is going one way, but then bends back and goes into the goal.
