Eintracht Frankfurt winger Ansgar Knauff couldn't have struck the ball any sweeter in Thursday's Europa League quarterfinal against Barcelona.
The 20-year-old German left Barcelona stunned in the 48th minute after his outstanding shot with the outside of his boot sailed past a helpless Marc-Andre ter Stegen to give the Eintracht a deserved 1-0 lead.
The lead, however, was short-lived, as Ferran Torres scored less than 20 minutes later to bring Barca level.
