Bravo

Ah here

Have you ever applauded an opposition player after witnessing a piece of wonderful skill.

Have you ever had to just say ‘ah that’s pure class’ as someone rattles a goal past your helpless ‘keeper?

Well we imagine they are the thoughts that were floating around Juan Riquelme’s head after witnessing this delicious nutmeg in a testimonial.

The Argentine legend was playing in a testimonial for Sebastian Battaglia’s when Martin Palermo pulled off a pretty epic piece of skill after which Riquelme halted play and decided to applaud his teammate.

Proper order too.
