Whether the ball swerves afterwards or not, it can't be done without some initial velocity from the force of the kick. At the moment, it looks more liked a balloon deflating out of orbit, than proper football flight. Just my thoughts.

Totally agree with you. Something feels weird the moment they hit the ball.

First off, the good. The video looks absolutely incredible, miles better than 16. Now about the ball flight. For me it all looks too "artificial" if that makes any sense. I'm hoping the artificiality of it all is a byproduct of assisted controls being the default setting, and that the ball's flight will look more natural with manual controls enabled. Time of course will tell.
