Showing off: A rabona chip pass to set up an overhead kick

Here's a lovely combination of skills that you might not expect to find in the Greek second division. League leaders PAS Giannina earned a 3-0 win over Ethnikos Asteras on Sunday to put it a point away from the title and its second goal of the day showed why it's in that position.

After putting the defender on his backside, Giannina's Manwlis Skoufalis chipped in a floating cross with a rabona and to finish it off with appropriate flair, Dimitris Sialmas put the ball in the bottom corner of the net with a lovely overhead kick. It's almost not fair.

Anyway, it's nice to see a clip come out of Greece that doesn't involve fan violence or people getting hit by flares.
