Fiorentina are up against Borussia Monchengladbach in the Europa League right now, and the hosts are certainly looking the better side. Federico Bernardeschi doesn’t care, though, as he shocked BMG with an absolutely stunning free kick just before the break to hand the visitors an unexpected and possibly undeserved lead. Go ahead and marvel.

Not bad for a young man who turns 23 today. He gave Yann Sommer no opportunity. We are witnessing his apotheosis. Bask in it.
