American Reacts to Football Skills that Broke the Internet 2021

[@t95.46]

Pretty satisfying as a European to see an American begin to appreciate football. It’s magical and the world’s most popular sport for a reason!

Butin US it is nothing do by foot

You NEED to react to a compilation of Ronaldinho, probably the one of the most technically gift footballers of all time

[@paulcurran4786]

And Zizou

[@CainySNP]

And something about Juninho for free kicks

I'm a Newcastle fan (I was born and brought up on tyneside, so it's pretty much drummed into you 😆), and my husband is a Liverpool fan. Where I enjoy watching the toon, or England play, my husbands love for the game is huge. He'll watch any team play. He likes watching Spanish football too. His love for the game, comes from his Mam.

[@Miobambino]

The Toon is my second team. My dads a Geordie and taught me Blaydon Races as soon as I could speak. I remember going to Barcelona with all the lads for the Andorra v England game in 2008 World Cup qualifiers. Amazing weekend, but I was craving some fruit and veg at the end! Only so much beer and fast food a girl can take 😂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@JohnHMarsden]

The beautiful game is so wonderful...to caress a ball, trap it, beat a player, shoot, head, send a player the wrong way, nutmeg him, score a goal is the most wonderful feeling in the world.

[@Paul-hl8yg]

🤔 You forgot the dribbling!! 😆🇬🇧

[@SAFC_Luke]

Love these vids man, great work

[@dishoneste]

JT these football reactions are just what i need in life 🤣

[@MJScrivens89]

There is a similar expression in football when it comes to dribbling, though rather than on a string, we’d say the ball is glued to his feet.

[@anta3612]

It's good to see your growing appreciation of the beautiful game. 👍

[@joelpayne1193]

Yeah, those guys who are highly skilled in football skills so awesome 👌 I will watch this again with big smile 😀

[@kingspeechless1607]

When a player puts the ball between an opponents legs we call it a 'nutmeg'

Thankyou for calling me good looking I really appreciate it 😂😂 but best reaction I've ever seen to passing through the players 😂 no no hell no. Just walks off camera 😂

[@denisepearson5385]

Came across your vlogs just recently, your reactions are so funny, love watching 👍

[@jchacon_88]

In football there's 3 kind of drible: the simple skill, the fancy move and the "f**k your ankle, hip and pride"

[@timglennon6814]

This is why we love this beautiful game of Football.

[@ianpawson-vanlife-mcr]

Your reactions make me laugh .... keep it up lad 👍

You need to react to goalkeeper saves also love your channel

[@saynotothemeta993]

Also we had a show over here called the Jeremy Kyle show, it's basically the UK ripping off jerry springer. It got cancelled for being too wild 😂

[@hazziio6705]

You should have a look at an Allan st-maximin compilation, he had 3-4 clips in this video in the black and white stripes

[@fisheye375]

The nonchalant one hurt your ego when it happens to you😂😂😂

[@ollieduracell]

Love these reactions man! I would say react to my team (Colchester) but we're utterly terrible so maybe don't 😂

[@nva4687]

Glad there was at least one Scottish one shown, there's a couple of Rangers players like Kent or Aribo that pull off moves that you double take at regularly. Our favourite thing to say is "Those men had families!" after hearing Heart & Hand saying it after a match where they just embarrassed the players they were against

[@Gummigoo_under_the_map]

2:32 - His name is Allan Saint-Maximin. He is the best dribbler in world football and plays for Newcastle United.

[@Sdw77]

They all are impressive, to attempt skills like this in front of thousands of fans and millions watching is outrageous and brilliant👌🏽👍🏽😂

[@Kwoodbhoy]

Love your videos mate! You should react to the bolasie flick next or scottish football fans

[@mexicangringo07]

A nutmeg (ball going through a defenders legs) is one of the most humiliating things that can happen to you in the field, which is why you always hear the commentators praising it.

[@NoahStephens007]

The beat drop on neymars fall killed me😂

[@mntieboy]

the most impressive is when you trick a defender that usually never gets tricked... it's fun to see you learn though, football is so normal to me i tried to copy like most of those moves lol

[@ianmelonie6440]

Although I’m not a sport or a football fan but I can appreciate the skill involved

[@coot1925]

Love your comment about the fact that they control the ball with only their feet. That's why it's called FOOT-BALL, unlike American football which, apart from extra point or field goal, is controlled by hands. I prefer American football to soccer, but this does need explaining.

[@sophieandwayne]

So pleased you called it football! Respect ✊

[@michaelparham1328]

There's an anime called Bluelock about highschoolers footballers trying to be the top team/player in what can only be described as the most intense football camp you could imagine. It's anime, so there are some insane plays. So insane that they're almost unbelievable... then I see these moves, and suddenly everything they do in the show seems plausable.

[@kian72olner]

React to • Lionel Messi - The goat official movie. • Cristiano Ronaldo - the man who can do everything. • Diego Maradona - When football becomes art. Unanimously, these are the 3 greatest ever players. But the order is personal preference. Then there’s also a brilliant video called the beauty of football, which covers a whole collection of legendary players and moments.

[@michaelgrabner8977]

For me who saw Maradona actually play because I´m a time witness (yeah I´m that old) he is by far the best of those three... On the one hand simply because everything what Messi and C. Ronaldo is doing with the ball I already saw Maradona doing. And on the other hand because additionally he went back then in the Italian League which was the best League in the world back then like the Premier League is today (for instance Messi doesn´t take that challenge although he could play there and every single Top PL Team would be highly pleased to have him, but neither La Liga nor the french Ligue1 is the best League in the world, C Ronaldo at least took that challenge even twice now) ..But Maradona took "the freaking next level challenge" not playing for an italian Top Team but playing for Napoli which was a Relegation team back then and won with that 2nd class teammates around him on the pitch the italian championship against the Top Teams full with the best players in the world back then...because solely he made that much of a difference back then. That´s like Messi or Ronaldo playing for Burnley or Watford whatever today and winning with their current teams the Premier League...and that´s why Maradona will be - for me - the best of all time..... ...... because Messi and Ronaldo always played just for Top Teams with Top teammates and everything those 2 won was a consequence of that ..and that´s the huge difference between those 2 and Maradona playing for a second class team like Napoli at that time and winning Championship 2x Cup1x and Uefa Cup 1x.....Of course today Napoli is an italian Top Team for few decades but back then as Maradona signed his contract and played for them it wasn´t at all....solely he made Napoli big and laid the foundation for what Napoli is today.

[@margaretnicol3423]

Go into your yard and put down a line of about 10 cans, 1 yard apart. Now dribble the ball (with your feet) in and out of the cans from one end to the other. Turn round and come back up the line doing the same thing. Practice, practice and practice. Then you can show us how good you've become on a short video. Yes???

[@user-dj4zc8qc4s]

I’m a new Subscriber from England Boston I love your Kentucky Accent

[@stuartcrooks]

For context if you put it trough the oppositions legs it’s called a nut meg and it’s the most embarrassing this that can happen to a footballer so is always worse. The thing is this video shows some of the best players in the world. But also a lot that don’t concept at the highest level. These skills are being done by both world class and great players that’s what’s brilliant about our game

[@bickersisaidso2631]

You should react to a compilation of just the stuff Lee Trundle did in his career. He was never anywhere near the top level of football, but you’d catch him doing the craziest skills every single week.

[@alexhumphreys5243]

jP you should watch when players lost there temper. When Eric cantona got banned for life

[@alexbea2618]

just subbing because bro is constantly referring to football as "football" and not as soccer. really satisfying for my European ears😄

[@ianhall5224]

I love that you appreciate the art of football dribbling, if you enjoyed this video, you should watch the god of ball control Ronaldinho one day

[@sotys9077]

3:16 well, you still didn't know much xD

[@Cheezyb3an]

I'm sure you've seen so many of these comments, but you NEED to watch a compilation of a player called Ronaldinho. This video was hardly anything compared to him. The guy is a beast!

[@makaveliuk86]

You ain't gotta tell us how hard it is to control a ball with your feet,we grow up being pressured to play it,plus we have a long history of watching our national teams(all the UK teams,I'm not singling one out before you come for me!🤷‍♂️😂)struggle with it....👀😂😂

[@sandwitch4300]

Their feet move quicker than my brain can take it in 😅

[@MrEaster619]

Trust me bud its not so surprising when you've breathed, slept and ate football since a little boy in England. Of course the skill amazing but the ability to control a football with your feet becomes naturaL. LIKE AN INSTINCT. I imagine its the same in American sports, but love the appreciation for the sport.

[@themightydragon710]

Have a look at "Mo salah" mate. his skills are out of this world. Plus a ball through the legs is called a "nutmeg" because its so sweet 🤣

[@archerpool]

Football is a very easy game if you’re in the US. As a very mediocre extremely low level footballer in the UK, I ran rings around MLS hopefuls during my one year of studying in the US. While they had a chance at going pro in the US, in the UK I have absolutely zero chance of even going semi-pro. I played centre back (defence) and scored two less goals than the divisions leading scorer and I played half the games. People don’t quite have the dexterity or speed in the US. A lot of players take far too long to get the ball moving and they look awkward trying to control the ball with their feet. Almost like a young child in the UK only just starting out. It sounds really insulting, but it’s true. It makes sense though. Here we have people who live and breathe football. It’s ingrained in our culture. While in the US it’s only recently taken off. You guys don’t have all that experience and passion behind it. It’s kinda like basketball, I’m sure someone who’s never played for a basketball team from US, but has played it their whole life would easily get into a basketball team in the UK.

[@jorgeclarkson8286]

Mate a football never left my side as a kid I would walk to school casually dribbling a ball and back again, I would play when I got home, I would use a soft sponge ball in my living room when it was shit weather, I did nothing but play football, with mates, by myself against a wall, it's all we ever did, I played for a decent team at the time, used to have scouts come and I still wasn't good enough, but I was decent, pretty good at times, could hold my own against adults in a game, I was a striker the majority of the time but as we got older they lumped the bigger more developed kids up front, who only knew how to blast balls over the crossbar. I was pretty clinical in front of goal, even to this day I can naturally score when given a chance, I don't play anymore due to terrible injuries, but the last time I did I scored 1 min into a game with 3 touches (And tore my hamstring, hence why I hanged the boots up for good) my skill was more movement and game sense, always in the right place at the right time, I can recall tonnes of matches where I only got one chance and scored it. When I hear the skill level of Americans I actually would have loved to play against them, they would have been eaten alive by us as kids. I remember going to Spain and the difference in our play was hilarious, the Spanish kids were all dribbling skill against typical English rough play, if one of them tried to dribble we would just clatter them. Obviously Spain are a good footballing nation, but like they were all small weedy kids with skill and we were like rugby players in comparison lmao.

If you like skill in Football you really need to check out videos of Diego Maradona, the man was a gift from God on a Football pitch, some of the best players in the World just couldn't get the ball off him. He used to keepy-up Oranges and Golf Balls with his bare feet when he was a kid, and before a match he would keepy-up rolled up socks in the dressing room for fun only stopping when he got bored, mightily impressive indeed. On the pitch it was like the ball was glued to his feet...probably the most talented person to ever play the beautiful game. Cool video 👍

Some people say Nutmeg (between the legs) is the most disrespectful, but I dont agree, flicking it over someones head is, its harder for a start, but when you do it right you take the defender out the game and all they can do is watch at that point. As an attacker, nothing says "I own you" to a defender like flicking it over their head, to me it says "I'm faster , smarter and more skillful, keep trying to stop me if you like looking silly" and when you do combos (more than 1in a row) its lie telling the whole defence to go play another sport. (because to be honest no matter how slick you are, against a well positioned defence, the 2nd head flick should not be possible no matter what, but it does create panic, even good defences can panic) When people try and trash talk me...I make it a think to flick it over their head at some point :D

Yea that was nice and it was showboating. Its never functional to the game. In this video i think all or most were forced situations, but the fact that people think this is a good thing is badddd. Those players were in trouble and had no other option. (most anyway) A good example would be Bergkamps famous goal, which is one touch and scoring. Its about the one touch thing, which most people dont seem to get. Dribbling is never a good thing if it was planned to be that. Not even Messi does that. He goes with the flow and will pass, but if the situation calls for it, he can do it. But its not what you set out to do, bc most players will end up losing the ball.
