Zinedine Zidane pulls off a stunning trick we expect you all to try at Astro this week

Still got it

Patrick McCarry

At first viewing, you’d think Zizou is in over his head.

However, upon second, third, fourth and eighteenth looks, it is clear that the former Juventus and Real Madrid maestro knows exactly what he is doing.

Zidane, now 42 and seven years retired, is over in Berlin for the Champions League final – between his old, Italian side and Barcelona.

Still contracted to adidas, he took part in a game of freestyle football. No goals, but points scored for skills, tricks and evasion.

The Frenchman looked to be stumbling into trouble, at one stage, but showed there is life in the middle-aged dog yet.

Zidane skill
