Lionel Messi to the rescue.
The Argentine star powered Paris Saint-Germain to a key victory over RB Leipzig in Tuesday's Champions League encounter, scoring twice after his side went 2-1 down in the second half.
After tapping the ball into an open net for his first tally, Messi delivered the decisive blow in style, clipping a delightful Panenka penalty beyond a helpless Peter Gulacsi in the Leipzig goal.
