 Dribbling
You can often tie this in with a fake shot. Dribbling away from a defender into space you fake a pass or shot and then chop the ball back with the inside of the foot you used to fake the pass or the shot - then dribble in the other direction.
Dribbling slowly at a defender you feint with the shoulder, ducking or leaning your shoulder down a little bit one way and take off the other way.
This is why, when training, you touch the ball each time you dribble, so you can gain greater control of the ball and make those sharp cuts to the side or back, and entice and elude and frustrate and really annoy defenders.
