well, i rekon that the footy skills are harder, as you have to be so fast with your feet, and naturally talented at football!!

but still i cant do either, well i can do a few of the football tricks like round the world, but nothing special!!
can u do any hockey skills like in the videos?

Yeah, he makes it look easy, but to be honest there isnt really anthing there that looks that hard. A few days with a stick and tricks like those can be learnt. Not saying they are not skillfull in game, that is different.

Football skills are much harder to master, controling a ball with your feet is more difficult than controling a ball with a stick. 8)

Trust me they are really hard! The hitting the ball in the air and catching it, although looks simple is UNBELIVABLY HARD!

Couldn't the same be said about football? A few of my mates can do quite a lot of the skills on the football videos. especially the one where the guy catches it on the back of the neck, lots of people can do that, one of my mates was able to strip down to his boxers and get dressed again(apart from putting the t-shirt back on) with ease.

All I can say to this is try it one time, you might find being able to kick a ball in the air and catching it on the back of your neck easier than catching a hockey ball on a stick!

I can do all of that with a soccer ball and can also use a field hocky stick like that too. I can do all of those tricks and more. No, I won't show you because I'm not a bragard and that would be bragging. I'm modest. ;)

Pretty amazing stuff. The second guy with the soccer ball is simply amazing. He could use most of what he does in-game. I was shocked. The same goes for the field hockey guy. I think both are tough.

Yes that was a guy playing field hockey, trust me when a ball is travelling through the air when it is crap going towards your head or body then you wouldnt call it a woman's game,
in one game i played i was literally about 2 or 3 feet away from a guy when he slapped the ball as hard as he can hit me on the side of my foot, looked like i had 2 ankles on one side for like a week its nasty stuff!

Also in a short corner, you only have 4 defenders to run out to get the ball, if the ball is flicked in the air and that hits you you can be knocked unconscious at least! Short Corner!
