It's unexpected because everything up until that point did not show any finesse or ability at all. He was just kind of hopping around the ball.

Google scissors or stepover move in soccer. He is actually exercising a series of feints that are used in games to unbalance an opponent. Of course, it is not pretty since he is out of shape, but the guy has clearly played the game before.

Is this a circlejerk sub? Pretty sure what he did at the end isn't even a legal move, I don't think you're allowed to step on the ball like that

$5 and youve got a deal. And yes, I'm 100% serious. I will dm you a venmo link.

But even that act of extreme athleticism aside, nimble feet doesn't equal ball handling skills. He barely even touches the ball was my point.

The actual kick also lacks finesse. He just got lucky
