I’m torn. If I played against South African footballer Thabo Rakhale I would be very angry. I would say things like, “nothing he does has any impact on the game.” I would act like a square white dude, but I would try and lock him down, steal the ball, and make sure his bulls*** never works. I can’t help the way that I am.
But watching him…I want to chant “swag” every time he touches the ball and yell at all the defenders trying to guard him, “THAT’S A BAAAAD MAN.”
Now, most of these showboats are incredibly useless, but they do look cool as hell.
Luckily for Rakhale, he seems to be able to do other things besides dance on the ball. I am basing this statement completely off of this next clip: a 20 yard curler into the top corner.
Contrary to what you may have initially thought, that shot didn’t deflect.
