right-footed
Kicking with starboard
Right-footed describes someone who naturally favors their right foot for kicking, leading, or balancing—the foot equivalent of right-handed.
In soccer, a right-footed player strikes the ball more accurately or powerfully with that foot: He's right-footed, so he curves the ball left on free kicks.
Can also describe a kick or shot made with the right foot: a right-footed volley into the top corner.
