I am still amazed that footballers are only just understanding that the position of the valve might affect the flight.

As a volleyballer, I would often revert to an underarm serve if the pressure was on or the overarm was failing and do two things. One was to lick my finger and moisten the valve. The second was to ensure I hit the valve on serve. The amount of weird swerve (early, late) I got often bamboozled the receivers and the psychological damage you do to a team when they are failing to return underarm serves is massive.

And yet, with all the billions spent on football, one player has 'discovered' a miracle skill that has been common knowledge in other sports for years.

Footballers - they really are thick as. :D

Ronaldo playing golf - or Sergio Garcia a few years ago? Both of them spending countless hours waggling the club around the ball before falling over.
