Edinho's double backheel keep-uppies with a rainbow trick to beat two defenders

Ed Ran

Not many people know who Edinho is. But this ought to make him famous! He came on as a substitute for Portugal and even scored a goal in the 5-1 win over Cameroon.

But besides that, he accomplished an almost impossible piece of control to get the ball and get past two defenders. The striker first controlled a long ball with his right heel before using his left heel to lob the ball over himself (the rainbow) and move forward.

Two back heel keep-uppies in two steps followed by a rainbow to continue a run is certainly a very rare event in football!
