Watch: Ex-Man Utd star Nani uses insane technique to score superb goal
Former Manchester United winger Nani is continuing to enjoy the indian summer of his career in MLS, and he added another special goal for Orlando City with a late match-winner against Inter Miami.
The 79th-minute strike from the edge of the box secured three points and a 2-1 victory over their Florida rivals, heaping the pressure on fellow former Old Trafford old boy Phil Neville in the Inter Miami dugout.
The former United and Everton left-back left his post as the England women earlier this year to take the vacancy at the recently-formed MLS franchise, fronted by his former team-mate David Beckham.
Inter Miami currently sit 11th in the MLS Eastern Conference, having won just two of 10 games under Neville. Nani’s Orlando City, meanwhile, sit second and are just two points off the top spot.
It’s not difficult to see why they’re flying high when they’ve got the 34-year-old pulling it out of the bag like this, having notched six goals and three assists in eight appearances so far.
His latest was a special strike – and you need to watch replays multiple times to get a picture of the ridiculous technique. There’s something downright sexy about the way the ball travels into the roof of the net.
