Legendary French midfielder Zinedine Zidane was gifted with the ball at his feet but his son Luca clearly didn't inherit those abilities, judging by his blunder in the UEFA Youth League on Tuesday.
Luca is one of Zidane's four sons, all of whom play for the Real Madrid Academy. Luca is the only goalkeeper out of the four, and there might be an obvious reason for that given his latest blunder.
Much unlike his great father, he clearly isn't blessed with the best of feet, as highlighted below.

Zidane decided to dribble the ball across his own box in Tuesday's UEFA Youth League game against Borussia Dortmund, only to be tackled by Jonas Arweiler, who tapped into an empty net after dispossesing the overconfident stopper.
Fortunately for Luca, Real Madrid went on to win the game 5-2, with the 'keeper making seven saves to help his team.
But his early mistake would have left the coaching staff rightly frustrated. Stick to using your hands in future, Luca.
