February 18th, 2010 – Miroslave Klose Kein Abseits! ? Kenan “Rathinho” Kseolu and His 360 Degrees Nutmeg Goal By: Daryl | February 18th, 2010 [video via The Big Lead] As a keen recreational footballer with approximately zero tricks (OK, I have one trick, but if I told you what it was I’d have to kill you) I love love love watching futsal.
For those unfamiliar, futsal is five-a-side on a hard surface indoor court with a smaller and less bouncy ball than usual.
As such, it’s the perfect environment for players with bags and bags of tricks.
Players like Dutchman Kenan Kseolu (aka Rathinho), who you can see pulling off a combined 360? panna/nutmeg goal above.
Genius.
Whenever I see players like Ratinho or Falcao in action, I (perhaps foolishly) want to see them playing some high level 11-a-side.
Mostly because I wish every football match was more like futsal, with tricks that make your eyes pop.
So I did a bit of Googling.
As well as playing in the Dutch futsal league, Rathinho had been playing his 11-a-side for Sportclub Feyenoord, the amateur wing of the professional Eredivisie outfit.
Good news is that Rathinho is now professional, having recently moved to a team in Kyrgyzstan called Abdish-Ata Kant (you can spot him on the squad list because he’s the only one without a Kyrgyzstan flag next to his name).
So there you have it.
If you want to see some entertaining football, head to Kyrgyzstan.

I’ve always enjoyed watching futsal.
Pity it doesn’t get more exposure other than tricks.

Del Piero’s against Ajax was better though.
