[QUOTE="amezcua, post: 791168, member: 38760"] I have just seen a video about the torpedo kick and it is not at all what I thought it was. The theory is that the side of the boot makes the ball spin . But a torpedo does not spin . It`s a Teachers`s video and the Teacher`s pensions ad almost obliterates the video just as the action starts . If the kicker`s head was covered we could follow the foot to ball sequence . But no the ad covers the bottom of the picture (removing it is a silly distraction ) . Also if you kick a spherical ball with the outside of the right foot it will swerve right and vice versa . So part two of my ignorance is that all the kickers in the Scotland /France game kicked the end of the ball with mixed success . Notice that cameras are hell bent on looking at the kicker`s face as he eyes up the posts . Sometimes you don`t see the ball at all . No slow motion for the foot . [/QUOTE]
