Malta probably weren't exactly brimming with confidence going into their Euro 2016 qualifier against Norway.

They were rock bottom of Group H with a measly two points. But if they caught this fantastically nonchalant piece of skill from Norwegian wonderkid Martin Odegaard before the game, they were probably ready to pack up and f**k off before a ball had even been kicked. The 16-year-old was having a bit of a bit of a kick-about before the clash and without even looking plucked this ball out of the sky and stopped it dead. Embarrassingly good. Norway won 2-0 and Odegaard will be at Euro 2016 if Croatia fail to beat Bulgaria.
