🚲 Bicycle Kick
An iconic overhead strike where the player leaps into the air and kicks the ball backward while their back faces the goal.
⚽💥 Pure acrobatics. Pure magic.
✂️ Scissor Kick
A horizontal flying strike, where the player leaps and twists mid-air to hit the ball — usually side-on rather than back-facing.
⚔️✨ Stunning in execution, but often overlooked in difficulty.
⏱️ Relies on split-second timing — usually performed on a cross from a teammate, depending on:
- The speed and height of the ball
- The positioning of defenders
- The opening between the lines
Unlike the bicycle kick — where the striker often initiates the motion with more control — the scissor kick is reactive, relying heavily on your team’s setup and your instincts.
🔥 Split-second artistry.
