As the ball drops he catches it perfectly on the half volley with the outside of his boot.

Martinez then casually walks past the camera after showing off the outrageous skill as if nothing has happened.
While the trick shot is very impressive, fans are not convinced it will help Martinez when he pulls on a United shirt in a match scenario.
One poked fun at Martinez on social media in response to the video, saying: "That will be useful in defence."
Another wrote: "Cant wait for him to pull that one off in defence!"

And a third joked: "Shame he’s a CB…"
Martinez played under United boss Erik ten Hag for three years at Ajax and will now link up with him again in Manchester.
The Dutch outfit accepted a bid for the centre-back worth an initial £46.8m, which is set to rise to £55m with add-ons.
He is United's third signing of the summer, following Tyrell Malacia and Christian Eriksen in joining Ten Hag's Old Trafford revolution.
