🎥 Ex-BVB star stuns Barça with bicycle kick despite Yamal’s brilliance

We know him primarily from his Dortmund days. Nowadays, Axel Witsel plays for FC Girona and today he personally puts himself back in the spotlight for all fans of refined football - and especially beautiful goals. 

The roles are actually clearly distributed: Barcelona currently in second place, Girona languishing in second-to-last place in the standings. After 13 minutes, this seemed to be confirmed, as Pedri scores to give Barca the lead. 

Buuuut not so fast! Axel Witsel clearly has something against handing the three points to the favorite without a fight. After 20 minutes of play, he scores a dream goal to equalize: From eleven meters, he takes a header assist with a bicycle kick and sensationally puts the ball into the net.

For another sensational scene, of course, it was Barcelona's Lamine Yamal who previously conjured the ball past the opponent on the sideline with the outside of his foot to the left, ran past on the right, and then - as if it were the easiest thing in the world - took the ball with him towards the goal in stride. But you should see that for yourself and enjoy:

Overall, the former BVB star Axel Witsel annoyed FC Barcelona with a bicycle kick - something even Yamal's world-class performance couldn't change. However, the final whistle hasn't blown yet, so both still have plenty of time to add more.
