The spectacular nutmeg by De Bruyne

It is clear that great players do not need too much to catch the world's attention. That is the case of Kevin de Bruyne, a footballer capable of the best for 90 minutes and also beforehand. The Belgian stood out in the warm up prior to the clash which City won 1-4 at Burnley. 

In a warm-up exercise, the talented midfielder was under pressure from a member of the City coaching staff. The Belgian came in from the side, stepped on the ball with his right foot, dummied with his left and then pulled off a great nutmeg with his right foot. 

Faced with such quality, there is little you can do apart from hold your hands up and acknowledge his quality. That is exactly what the coaching staff member did.
