What does "skin" mean in this context?

63' WHAT A STRIKE! Silva receives the ball on the right side of the area, skins Rose - who has struggled to handle both the Portuguese playmaker and Sterling all game - and effortlessly curls the ball into the top left corner with a wondrous left-footed strike. Another excellent goal to follow his strike at Villa Park, and City now lead 3-0!

It basically means that he gets past Rose with ease.
