Wolverhampton Wolverhampton defender Nathan Collins devised a smart dribble with his neck, which deceived the opposing team's striker, in one of his team's friendly matches in preparation for the new season in the English Premier League, scheduled to start next week.
And Wolverhampton posted on its official page on the Twitter site, the day before yesterday, Sunday, a video of the dribbling in which its defender surprised the opposing striker, commenting on it, “We don’t mind that, Nathan.”
Collins, 21, the opposing team's striker, deceived his intention to return a cross in the air to his goalkeeper, but he camouflaged his head and controlled the ball using his neck from behind with great confidence and calmness to pass the attacker and return the ball to his goalkeeper.
We don't mind it, Nathan!
