To knuckleball a football you need to essentially kick using the knuckles of your toes, hence the name. Only the top and front part of your foot should be used, to provide a clean, straight kick. This should make the ball fly very straight through the air with very little rotation. If done correctly, the ball can swerve in any direction as it reaches the goal. Players like Cristaino Ronaldo and Virgil van Dijk perform it very well when taking freekicks, so you should look at them for a perfect example.
