Now that he's retired, Carles Puyol has time for a few of his other interests outside of football, such as learning to play the drums or starting his own business (albeit a football-related one), but he clearly stills knows what he's doing when it comes to the beautiful game. 

Puyol, who appeared at a futbol sala event in Kuwait alongside Cesc Fabregas and Dani Caravajal, showed that despite being retired, he still has the skills that served him well throughout his career with Barcelona and the Spanish national side. 

That said, we'd be hard pressed to remember him slotting home a backheeled goal in a one-on-one quite like this during his playing days all the same.

The game, which saw a team of Fabregas' choosing take on a team of Puyol's choosing, ended 5-5, and there were plenty of quality finishes to be admired.
