Frequently asked questions
Why are touchline kicks so hard?
At a tight angle, the gap between the posts appears much narrower, so the margin for error shrinks dramatically — even before accounting for distance.
Does wind affect kick success more than distance?
Yes, in most cases. A kick from 30 metres into a strong crosswind is often harder to land than a straight 40-metre attempt in calm conditions, because wind affects the ball's flight path unpredictably while distance is a more linear challenge for a kicker's technique.
