When it comes down to it, footballers are little more than well-paid show ponies, there to perform tricks for our amusement.
Fitting that description in this video is Arsenal midfielder Santi Cazorla, who completes an impressive session of kick-ups with something that definitely isn’t a football, before finishing with a nonchalant flourish.
If you’re wondering what that is, it’s a rattan ball, used in the sport of sepak takraw, or kick volleyball.
The sport goes a bit like this and, frankly, we think it looks awesome.
