Watch: Galaxy's Cole, Husidic school team of 10-year-olds
Reuters
In the LA Galaxy's "Ridiculous Soccer Challenge," teammates Ashley Cole and Baggio Husidic were asked to take on a team of 25 10-year-olds. It was an evenly-matched contest that displayed former Arsenal and Chelsea standout Cole's virtue at both ends of the pitch.
Husidic's late backheel finish and subsequent quasi-cartwheel was the difference as the pros narrowly topped the joes 2-1.
Fair play to the one youth player who displayed a better first touch than Galaxy attacker and U.S. international Gyasi Zardes.
