Former Celtic right-back Mikael Lustig has tried his hand at the “Stay At Home Challenge”. Footballers around the world have been trying keepy-ups with a toilet roll but Lustig has opted for a slightly different approach.
The Swedish international attached the roll to a piece of string before attempting to kick it. He jokingly captions the video with the words “Haters going to say it’s fake”:
Unbelievable skill from Mika ?

Supporters on Twitter were enjoying Lustig’s take on the challenge:

Lustig is very much a fan’s favourite after having won eight Scottish Premiership titles, four Scottish Cup and four League Cups during his time at Parkhead.
The 33-year-old moved on a free transfer to Belgian side Gent last summer. He started the season as a first-team regular but before the Coronavirus outbreak suspended football matches, he had spent a long spell on a bench.
Whether he’ll return in some capacity to Celtic when his career ends, we shall have to wait and see.
