(Video): Reece James’ disgusting touch silences crowd

Reece James had a quiet game in attack by his standards, but still found time for a special moment when he plucked a dropping ball out of the sky with ease.

It’s not just the technique to pull it out of the air of course – it’s the brass neck to do it when you’re under pressure from an attacker and you’re effectively the last man in defence for your team – in a hostile atmosphere like Selhurst Park.

Now that’s cojones for you.

You can see the moment in the clip embedded here:
