Speeding up and slowing down

The ball listens to your feet - run with it faster, and it speeds up with you. Slow down, and it slows down too.

Changing pace is a great way to surprise an opponent - when you suddenly speed up, you’re hard to catch.

What do you do? Run slowly with the ball, then suddenly speed up for a few steps. Slow down again and try once more.
