WATCHING ZINEDINE ZIDANE weave magic on the football pitch was one of my favourite memories growing up. I still remember his stupendous volley during the 2002 Champions League final against Bayer Leverkusen. The world has voted it as one of the greatest goals of all time because of the sheer technical ability and artistry needed to excution perfection. I’d watch him on television, then try to emulate his silky touches, including the 2002 volley, on my patch of grass, Naturally, I failed miserably, time and time again. Even though I will never be able to match his playing skills, I am satisfied that I can now emulate his style.
