Benjamin Sesko scores Van Basten-esque volley against Sweden, one of the best goals you'll see this season
Benjamin Sesko produced a moment of magic as he smashed home a Marco van Basten-esque volley against Sweden.
The Slovenian sensation opened the scoring in their Nations League clash in remarkable fashion.
In the 28th minute, Petar Stojanovic lofted an inviting pass to Sesko.
On his left foot, the 19-year-old unleashed a superb strike which picked out the back of the net.

Sesko's outrageous goal bares a striking resemblance to Van Basten's legendary volley at Euro 98.
His goal, though, wasn't enough to earn the victory as Emil Forsberg levelled just before the break.
