The Stop and Go move is meant to delay and confuse defenders. You can use the Stop and Go soccer skill moves to beat defenders that hinder you from an angle, which is a great way to set a cross up and beat a defender on the sideline. The Stop and Go has a few variations, but all are effective and do the same thing.

One variation is to act like you will cut the ball backward, but instead, you quickly dribble forward. Another variation is that you can pull your ball back halfway and touch it using your lace. Or you can touch the ball with the inside of the foot and cut the ball back halfway.

You can also pull the ball back halfway and move the opposite foot behind your standing leg to pull the ball back and use an inside touch to move the ball forward.

Whichever variation of the Stop and Go soccer drills you use, you must always move your hips and body when you take the first touch.

If you do not sell the move correctly, the defender will not actually believe you will cut the ball back. Good defenders look for this move, so you should focus on executing it correctly to trick the defenders.
