I would compare the difference to golf at some level. It's not that we can't hit a golf ball, we just can turn it the way the Pros do. Add the need to run in soccer, and it's a lot more difficult. Perhaps hockey is another great example, while I can do some of the things the Pros can do, I sure as hell can't do it at the speeds they do it at (which I could never get up to their speeds!!), the hit a pipe with a puck 50 feet away.
Did I mention the running they do? While there are periods of standing, I'd say they are in some awesome shape..
