Kolarov reveals methodology behind terrifying shot as Inter unveil free-kick specialist

New Inter signing Aleksandar Kolarov has revealed that there is no secret behind his outrageously powerful left-footed shots, stating that the force he is able to generate is achieved purely through practice on the training field.

Kolarov, who recently swapped Roma for San Siro, once knocked out a referee during his time at Lazio, unleashing a drive from outside the box with such ferocity that players quickly scrambled to check on the official as he collapsed in a heap on the pitch.

Former Napoli man Ezequiel Lavezzi also found himself in a similar position following that incident, having put himself on the line by jumping to head clear a Kolarov free-kick during a match-up between the two Serie A sides.
