Watch: Celtic's Moussa Dembele rattles in a perfect free-kick for France U21s
Dembele put France Under-21s ahead in Kazakhstan by picking out the top corner gloriously.
This is absolutely perfect; Moussa Dembele could not have placed it any better.

The Celtic striker's direct free-kick comes from France's Under-21 game with Kazakhstan, which the French eventually won 3-0. Dembele, Jean-Kevin Augustin and Jonathan Bamba were the players responsible.
The technique used by Dembele is an interesting one: a sort of hybrid of the styles used by Ronaldinho and, less famously, Dragan Stojkovic. Younger readers can check out Stojkovic's free-kick against Spain at the 1990 World Cup.
