Arsenal star Leandro Trossard left fans stunned with a ‘crazy’ piece of skill during Belgium’s match against Azerbaijan.

It was a comfortable evening for Belgium as Romelu Lukaku scored four goals, before Trossard sealed a 5-0 win for the hosts who secured top spot in Group F.

While it was a game to remember for Lukaku, it was Trossard who provided the viral moment of the match when he executed a sensational trick to evade a defender’s challenge.

After getting to the ball ahead of an Azerbaijan defender, he scooped up the ball to avoid the tackle, before controlling it in mid-air in a stunning piece of close control.

The clip then shows him beating another defender as he knocked the ball past him to rush on into a dangerous position.
