Bayer Leverkusen striker Admir Mehmedi could not kick a harder ball.
Mehmedi, who only signed with Leverkusen this summer, jumped on a pass from Karim Bellarabi and finished off the play with a rocket of a goal. It gave the German side a 2-1 lead on aggregate over Lazio.
Lazio defender Mauricio mistimed his tackle on Mehmedi, and that allowed the Swiss international to break away and shoot past helpless goalkeeper Etrit Berisha.
