How to... Dummy and turn

Watch our drill of the day from FA Tesco Skills.

Following the launch of the brand new FA Tesco Skills website, we're bringing you some of the best skills and drills videos from the programme.

Aimed particularly at the five to eleven-year-old age group, there's no reason why players of all ages can't try out these sessions to help improve your game.

Today we look at how to Dummy and Turn. A favourite move of many strikers made famous by Andy Cole and Dwight Yorke in the Nou Camp when they traded passes for a breathtaking goal, it involves letting a pass run through your legs before turning and following the ball.

You can watch the video in the player on the right of the page.

Check out our next Skill tomorrow - Taking the perfect penalty... or visit The FA Tesco Skills website for even more skills and drills.
