Never go into a one-on-one underestimating your opponent, it may not end well. This was the exact case for one man during a social game of basketball, as he came to learn.
In a short viral video shared by Yabaleft on Instagram, the young boy completely decimated his older opponent during a game and the show was as humbling as it was entertaining.

At the start, the man had full control of the ball, trying to beat the kid who appeared ready to gain possession.
In some seconds, he stole the ball from him, and that started the man's downfall. Instead of hurriedly making straight for the hoop, the child drove him around the free throw circle and showed who the boss is.

To nail it, the kid went for a layup and made a basket. If you have ever wondered what a show of shame looks like during a basketball match, this is it.
