Defensive headers step 2
Be really careful what you do with your arms.
Any push in the back of an opponent could see a penalty or dangerous free-kick given away.
To power the ball upwards, you need to make contact with the bottom half of the ball.
Arch your back so that you can thrust your forehead up into the line of the ball.
