Fans react to piece of Trezeguet skill from Egypt’s win over Togo

Many Aston Villa fans have reacted to footage of Trezeguet performing some impressive skills for Egypt during the international break.

The winger proved to be a key player for Villa at the end of last season, helping the Midlands side remain in the Premier League with his
contributions.

Having featured in seven league games so far this term, the £7.2m-rated winger has one assist to his name and he continues to be a key player for his country.

Representing Egypt in their latest Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Togo, the 26-year-old produced a moment of magic as he took down a cross before appearing to be bundled over in the penalty area.

Egypt won the game 1-0 thanks to a goal from Mahmoud Hamdi, seeing them sit second in Group G.

Villa fan Matt Lynch took to Twitter to share the Villa winger’s piece of skill:

The video clip duly gained plenty of reaction, with one supporter excitedly drawing comparisons with Brazil’s legendary 1970 World Cup-winning team and other affectionately dubbing the 26-year-old a “naughty boy”:

matchday.
