Say what you like about the full-bloodied challenges that have earned Radja Nainggolan an unsavoury reputation in the past, but you can't deny the Belgian can smack balls in from distance.

AS Roma's combative, box-to-box midfielder scored the only goal in Monday's Serie A trip to AC Milan by latching onto a header from Kostas Manolas, before moving inside to arrow in beyond Gianluigi Donnarumma.

The 1-0 win stretched a three-point advantage over Milan, and also drew Roma to within four points of league-leader Juventus.
