Bayern Munich Stars Use Robotic Wall to Perfect Their Free Kicks

• Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich have discovered a new way to improve their players' free-kick mastery
• The Allianz Arena outfit have deployed modern technology to replace human walls which are normally used at training grounds
• Bayern Munich have not had a freekick expert ever since Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery left the club

Bayern Munich Madrid have dropped a video of their players using new technology at their training ground to improve their players’ free-kick technique.

In the video, Joshua Kimmich was seen trying to shoot over an incredible robot wall as he takes free-kick training to the next level.

The 27-year-old curled the ball over the mechanical five-player blockade that jumps as a free-kick is taken.

The mannequins which are operated by a control panel on a tablet can be sighted jumping after the free-kicks are taken, akin to how a human wall would react in a game.
