Soccer Goalkeeping Principles III

Principle # 3: Hands

If at all possible, get two hands on the ball. Don't cheat with one hand or making foot saves when you could dive.

This may require you to be more courageous, but that's what goalies must be.

The number 1 priority is to secure the ball. Getting your body behind it is key. The hands are the part of your body that allows you most secure handling of the ball, and two hands are better than one.

Only lazy goalies or those who are afraid to dive will cheat!
