Perfecting the Volley Shot

Related Topics: Júlio Baptista

We've all seen it; that instant when a world class soccer players does something amazing and does it with such ease we forget just how hard it actually is. That happened this past weekend at The Campground when Julio Baptista volleyed in an extra time goal that gave Orlando City the (short-lived) lead.

The goal was such a thing of beauty -- the perfect complement of power and accuracy. The shot was so hard that even though San Jose Earthquakes keeper David Bingham got a hand on it, the ball still barely left its course.
