Watch: Leeds United's Raphinha with incredible backheeled nutmeg to fool Gary Cahill


Raphinha produced an incredible moment of skill to bamboozle Gary Cahill during Leeds United's 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace at Elland Road on Monday night.

The £17million summer signing, who played a pivotal role throughout with another impressive performance, pulled off a backheeled nutmeg in the first half that gave Cahill no other option but to rugby tackle him to the ground just outside the box.

Although no goal came of it, Raphinha was later involved in Leeds' second of the match when his shot was only partially saved by Vicente Guaita and Patrick Bamford followed up to turn home the rebound from eight yards.

Leeds, who opened the scoring through Jack Harrison, secured their 10th top-flight win of the season and gained sweet revenge for a 4-1 defeat at Selhurst Park in November.
