it depends on the position of the defender, with a defender behind you or beside you, usually you need to stretch it long, dribbling it farther away from you than you usually do, then run after it. i usually hit it with my upper outer part of my toes. look for ronaldhino videos during his prime at barcelona

if the opponent is in front of you, play it short, diagonally behind your marker making him/her backpedal and turn, if your faster than the defender you can still control the ball, watch how wingers play, it’s what they do to get to the sides before crossing the ball

Play as a goal tender, pick the ball up. Helps no end.
