Examples

“The Croatian controls on his chest before hitting a left-footed volley which swerves and moves in the air but ultimately drifts wide of the far post⟳. "It didn't have⟳ quite enough swazz on it," says Wilkins. I believe⟳ that's a technical term.”

“[W]e considered Essien’s strike⟳ against Arsenal to be the best of a ridiculously good bunch. Firstly, consider⟳ the context. [...] Then, the finish⟳ itself. Hit with genuine venom and an outside-of-the-boot swazz that would make⟳ Roberto Carlos blush.”

“I think⟳ what separates this goal from other volleys I have⟳ witnessed ... is the swazz, as the kids say⟳. The ball started so far outside the left post⟳, it had no right to curl back in to that degree and end⟳ up in the back, or roof, of the net.”
