its to curl d ball horizontally like a banana while shooting d ball.. no exceptional leg movements r required, just simple shooting wid d inside part of ur foot right alongside ur toe .. it usually seems gud wen d speed of shootin is less.. doesnt work at ahigh speed generally..

I think the Banana Kick is used to describe motion trajectory of flying football which is a curve like shape of banana.
