You can't spell intelligent without "Gent."
Knowing that a victory at the Stade de Gerland on Tuesday would bode well for its chances of progressing to the knockout phase of the Champions League, Gent drew level with Olympique Lyonnais on Tuesday in sublime fashion.
After three of Gent's players shielded the ball before splitting up and running into Lyon's penalty area, up stepped Danijel Milicevic to curl home a stunning free-kick from about 20 yards out.
Milicevic's free-kick resulted in Gent accomplishing something that only one other Belgian club had accomplished in the past.
