If you want to kick for accuracy, one thing you may want to try is to practice dropping the ball, and practice holding the ball steady while running.When running for a kick, it is very easy for the ball to shake around, you need to hold it steady while approaching for a kick. If you drop the ball anyway other than straight down, your foot will miss making clean contact, and the ball will go off on its own way.
