VIDEO: Zlatan defies laws of gravity, scores ridiculous flying backheel goal in training

Reuters

The 2014-15 season is nearly upon us, and among other things, that means we get to see Zlatan Ibrahimovic back in action with Paris Saint-Germain.

The big Swedish striker, whose team did not qualify for the World Cup in Brazil, is presumably champing at the bit to get back onto the pitch and remind everyone what they missed out on during the recently completed tournament.

Judging by this video, he is already in fine form.

While the video doesn't show whether the ball actually crosses the goal line, there is another (much grainier) clip that shows the mesh rippling and the goalkeeper pulling the ball out of the net.

That said, the fact that it's Zlatan means you should just be assuming it went in without needing further video evidence.
