We’re not sure of this kid’s name, but we imagine it’s something like Jose Dimitar Berbatov Gonzalez or something along those lines.
Any goal scored with a back-flick is cool, but it’s even cooler when it’s scored with the nonchalance and absolute economy of effort displayed by the 13-year old Mexican in the clip above.
The good folks at 101 Great Goals tell us that it was scored not by Jose Dimitar Berbatov Gonzalez, but by Sebastián Castro of Mexican club Cruz Azul against Chivas in the Octavos de Final Torneo way back in April, but is only starting to get due recognition in the last few days.
Lurking at the edge of the box, Castro latched onto a dropping ball from the right wing and allowed it drop over his head before casually flicking his heel at the ball and making a perfect connection which sent it looping over the head of the Chivas ‘keeper and into the back on the net.
How much cooler can you get?
