The 28-year-old Italian striker was playing against LA Galaxy in a pre-season friendly in 2011, finding himself in the perfect opportunity to double City's lead in the match.

However, the former Inter Milan and Liverpool player tried to pull off a showboating backheel trick shot, which didn't even hit the target.

Of course, that led to the brilliant moment where then-City manager Roberto Mancini subbed him off for blowing the chance to score for his side.
Well, the Italian footballer decided to enumerate why he did his backheel shot.

"I thought I was offside! B******s," he wrote in response to 433 posting the video on Instagram.
"And plus, listen to the whistle before I could even shot! [sic] That's why I did it ."

I t's another classic response from Super Mario, right?

The Current Marseille striker might have cleared the air on that, but his teammates were not happy about it at the time.

"Everybody's seen it, it wasn't a great action and the coach took a decision to take him off," ex-City player Nigel de Jong said (via the Daily Mail).

"That's a decision that's been made and that's a statement that the group is behind him.
"If you are near the target, you should make an attempt to score. Everybody knows that, and Balotelli too.
I hope he learns from this moment and that we as a group to emerge stronger."

Mario Balotelli is know for so many things, his arrogant behavior, and a popular trend which made the whole world love him kinda "WHY ALWAYS ME" he celebrated with the inscription on his shirt in the derby against Manchester United.
