Vine: Paul Pogba scored with a technically perfect volley last night

Shades of a certain Zinedine Zidane about this one

The Juventus midfielder is really in superb form of late.

Still only 21, Paul Pogba has really stepped it up in recent weeks. Always gifted, the French man is now delivering stunning moments of skill to back up his other abilities.

A few weeks back we showed you how he scored from behind the goal in training and last week this stunning elastico bamboozled the Inter Milan defence.

Last night Pogba went one better, scoring a cracking volley to help Juventus see off Napoli 3-1. A spinning ball drops high out of the sky to the edge of the box and Pogba sets himself perfectly before striking a picture perfect volley to the net.

Here’s another angle

Another former Juve player from France, Zinedine Zidane, would have been proud of the technique shown here
