THE EX-NIGERIAN international footballer Jay Jay ‘so good they named him twice’ Okocha had a reputation for being a a bit of a footballing magician over the course of his career.

And the video below, in which Okocha features alongside Marcel Desailly, Kalusha Bwalya and Rigobert Song, confirms that his skills have not waned with age.

Trust me, you need to see this to believe it (assuming it is real).
