Mario Balotelli always did love a backheel flick, often to the irritation of his coaches, but showed in a training session just how much fun they can be.

The former Italy international was famously hauled off by Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini after trying to score a back-heel flick when clear on goal in a friendly against the LA Galaxy.

Fast forward a decade or so and SuperMario got to have as many back-heel flicks as he wanted in a training session.

The 33-year-old is currently playing in Turkey for Adana Demirspor, scoring seven goals in 14 appearances this season.
