also the goalkeepers weight is usually on his left foot as he is naturally moving towards that direction as the play comes from wide to central. really clever by messi and really hard to get a good sharp dive to your right side.

yessss, thats very important. Great analysis! Same reason why they teach you to head against the direction the goalie is coming from. You catch them on the wrong foot, meaning they have to take an extra step
