Ever wondered how a perfectly-aimed bicycle kick gets its incredible power? Or how a free kick curves around a wall of defenders and into the goal?
Packed with dynamic illustrations and action-packed photography, Soccer Science dives into the scientific principles of the game, and shows you how they are applied on the field. Using real-life examples from the pros who appear to do the impossible, discover how spin and air pressure can bend the ball mid-flight and how gravity and momentum work together in a volley. You’ll also learn about how your body works, and how fitness, mind-power, training, and nutrition are key to a football player’s endurance and power.
This bold, visual guide explains scientific ideas in a simple way, so even complex physics click. Alongside core concepts like force, energy, pressure, and friction, readers will explore the latest innovations in football tech, including smart boots, fitness trackers, and super stadiums.
With Soccer Science, you’ll understand the physics behind every goal, pass and tackle, and transform your game.
