I was watching Sheffield vs Man United last Wednesday and saw that 38-year-old Phil Jagielka was playing for Sheffield. This surprised me and reminded me of something one seldom sees.
A few years ago when he was playing for Everton he scored an extra-time tying goal vs arch-rival Liverpool, a difficult half-volley shot from 25 yards using as near perfect technique as you ever will see. What makes it different was that he did a forward hop off the placement foot at the end of his follow-through.
At the Vogelsinger soccer camp that I worked at for 40 years, we stressed this “magic hop follow-through” when teaching shooting.
