Totti free kicks look like FIFA

Francesco Totti, one of football's most celebrated players, employed a unique free kick technique that showcased his strategic ingenuity. By having a teammate lightly tap the ball, Totti could adjust his positioning and strike with enhanced precision and power. This slight movement often caught defenders and goalkeepers off guard, allowing Totti to generate optimal angles for his shots. His method combined technical skill, tactical awareness, and perfect timing, making his free kicks highly effective and memorable.
