Ashley Cole thanks fans for warm welcome after preseason debut

Tuesday night was a big night for LA Galaxy newcomer Ashley Cole. The English defender made his preseason debut against Club Tijuana, playing a total of 58 minutes for his new side. Cole's calm and collected play down the left side of the field was hard to miss as he shutdown Xolos defenders as well as involved himself in the attack.

Following his debut, Cole took to Twitter to thank Galaxy fans for making him feel so welcome.

Not only did Cole play a solid first match for the Galaxy, but he even had himself a bit of fun on the sideline when he pulled off this insane move.

What did Cole have to say about his bit of fancy footwork?

Well played, Cole, well played. Welcome to the LA Galaxy!
