Video: Bath’s Horacio Agulla may actually have magic skills after this amazing trickshot

Straight between the sticks

Neil Treacy

Nigel Owens famously said “This is not soccer”, but that doesn’t mean rugby players don’t have decent footwork.

Bath’s Argentinian winger Horacio Agulla has been showing of his party-piece at the club’s training ground, and it’s absolute magic.

Drawing the ball back with his left foot, and kicking it forward with his right, Agulla gets the ball to start spinning on the spot, to the point that it’s standing upright.

He then kicks the ball as it’s spinning, before watching it absolutely split the sticks from more than 40 meters out.

Pretty damn slick.
