The Milan defender found the net with a beautiful overhead kick in the 2012/13 Champions League to help his side beat Anderlecht.

Chesting down a lofted free kick, he acrobatically launched the ball past the Anderlecht goalkeeper from the edge of the penalty area to put his side 2-0 up on the night, in a game they eventually went on to win 3-1.

Reminder: Philippe Mexès was a central defender. He really did this in the Champions League 12 years ago 🤯 (via @ChamionsLeague)
