World Cup Watch: The best free-kick takers

Posted Wednesday, April 28, 2010 by The Independent

Wesley Sneijder (Netherlands)
While the Inter Milan midfielder will have some competition, Sneijder will be expected to step up and take the free-kicks that come Holland's way. Starting at Ajax, then at Real Madrid and now under Jose Mourinho in Italy, the Dutchman has made himself the first choice dead-ball specialist. He's already scored numerous free-kicks since moving to Italy, including against CSKA Moscow as Inter progressed through the Champions League. If he fails to score from a dead-ball situation, he can be relied on to hit some beautiful long range efforts; his stunning goals helped light up Euro 2008.
