Polish side Cracovia attempted to surround the ball with players and gradually move it towards goal in a friendly match organised shortly after New Year.

Poland’s oldest football club are currently enjoying a winter break from the 2018–19 Ekstraklasa.

A game with a testimonial feel was organised against JKH GKS Jastrzębie at the Cracovia Stadium in Kraków earlier this month.

After 23-year-old Filip Piszczek’s goal, the team disappeared down the tunnel, only to soon reappear on a car driven onto the pitch.

But the highlight of the 90 minutes was an effort at dribbling the ball in the direction of goal while protecting it by standing in a circle around it.

Cracovia’s ruse was soon rumbled though, and the opposition players were able to snatch the ball from them.
