Man Utd striker Welbeck: Goal scoring flick something I've developed

Manchester United striker Danny Welbeck admits he developed his unique flick as a kid playing on the streets.

Welbeck bagged a brace against San Marino, his first goal an impudent backheel reminiscent of his winner in England's European Championship match against Sweden.

Revealing he mastered the technique as a youngster, Welbeck said: "It's something that I'm used to doing.

"So it's something that once it comes in that position, it's more of a natural reaction.

"I know once I get into those positions, there are a few different types of finishes I can do.

"So, I'm just really looking forward to scoring many more."
