United States manager Jurgen Klinsmann pulled off a crazy piece of skill last night as he watched his side suffer a 3-2 defeat to Chile.

Two goals from former Liverpool man Mark Gonzalez was enough to sink Klinsmann's men, but we don't care really about that - not when the gaffer is putting the players to shame, anyway.

By the looks of things, the ball boys got a bit excited and threw two towards Klinsmann by accident. Not that the German World Cup winner was fazed. Her simply backheel-flicked both balls simultaneously, with wonderfully nonchalant ease.

Thing is, Klinsmann is now without a win in his last five games with USA. So maybe it's about time he started teaching his players some of these silky skills he's been keeping in the locker.

We're not sure what sort of witchcraft the former German international has been studying to pull off such a freakish move but he doesn't seem too bothered, like he does it all the time.

Bizarre, but brilliant.
