Best shooters in the world of football today - Part 1
There isn’t a more beautiful sight than to see a footballer make an attempt far away from the goal and still find the back of the net. Perhaps, the long shot is the most glamorous part of football. It is also the most practiced skill by avid want-to-be footballers.
Kicking the ball that is fast and swings in to the corner of the goal is every footballer’s fantasy.
This article reviews some of the very best in the department. The order that follows is in no particular preference. Also, it is not an attempt to undermine some of the top footballers that have graced the green pitch. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Pele-c40189 are probably
the all time best players of the game. Sadly, they are not included in the list of top shooters as we look to take a look at the players who are still playing. But, it is always worth mentioning the legends of the game every time there is a list being compiled.
So, kudos to them for entertaining us throughout those glorious years.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629

There is no doubt about Ronaldo’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Skills-c40539 with the ball. He is a complete package. He doesn’t only have great footwork inside the box but he is also capable of hitting long shots. His ability to take the free kicks is amazing and always knows where
his target is.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Frank-Lampard-c14097

Lampard has scored 170 goals for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786. 115 of those have come in the English Premier League alone. That is a record in itself. His free kick is Lampard’s biggest asset. He is just as competent in hitting a long shot from open play. He doesn’t seem
to go for the corner of the goal always. He likes to break a wall of defenders or hit a beautiful shot through a crowded box. All in all, he has been amazing to watch during the past decade
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roberto-Carlos-c31317

The figure of Roberto Carlos piercing through the midfield during the famous days of star studded Brazilian football team is totally unforgettable. He hasn’t been in the limelight as he currently plays for Russian Premier League. He is 38 now and not
as good as he used to be. But, his goal scoring ability has not withered away with his age. He is just as effective with his free kick taking as he ever used to be.
Andrea Pirlo

Pirlo is an Italian ace and currently plays for Juventus. His 10 years with AC Milan saw him win two league titles, two Champions League cups and a world cup with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Italy-c2926.  He is credited with some spectacular long range goals to his name.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296

The small Argentinean genius is regarded as one of the greatest footballers ever. His dribbling skills are at par with Maradona and Pele. But, he is just as able to kick in some great long shots. He can kick those long range shots with either power
or deft. His deft lobs only stamp his authority on the game even more.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Steven-Gerrard-c34196

The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 veteran has amassed an impressive 140 goals for the club. His ability to score from range is truly commendable and lot of young players look up to him. He goes to prove that you do not always have to be able to curl the ball in to the
net. But, a player can still be effective by hitting the ball straight and strong – Just like he does. His last season may not have been very good but he is still one of the best in the business.
