Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like "KAH" (as in "car") + "nyoh" (as in "onion")/

Meaning

A soccer move where you pass the ball through your opponent's legs, also known as a "nutmeg" in English. Pulling off a caño is the ultimate act of showboating on the field, it generates louder screams from the crowd than an actual goal and leaves the defender looking completely foolish.

Examples

He nutmegged him and left him standing there like a fool!

If you get nutmegged in a pickup game, you might as well just retire.
