During the first half of today's Champions League match between Roma and Barcelona, one player stole the headlines away from Los Blaugranas' superstars. Italian midfielder Alessandro Florenzi scored a beautiful goal by drilling his right-footed shot into Barca's net, just meters after crossing into Los Cules' half of the pitch.
Florenzi's goal came minutes after Luis Suarez had scored the first goal of the game, with some doubts in the air about being offside.
"Alessandro Florenzi scored with a lob from midfield!"
