Angel Di Maria has been up to his old tricks, tonight, scoring a wonderful curling free kick during Paris Saint-Germain's Ligue Un clash with Angers.
The French champions are currently locked in a heated title race with league leaders Monaco, who started the weekend three points clear of the club from the capital.
With a little over 27 minutes on the clock, the Argentine winger settled Parisian nerves with an expertly taken set piece to send PSG into a first half lead.

The effort was Di Maria's twelfth goal of the current campaign, with the former Manchester United man also registering seven assists in all competitions.
The season is proving to be another fruitful one for the Rosario native, who had a prolific first season in Paris, scoring 10 times and laying on another 18 assists for his teammates.
Of course, despite another campaign of impressive form, the hunt for silverware has proved to be much tougher for Di Maria and his teammates, this season.

A resurgent, youthful, free scoring Monaco side have stormed to the top of Ligue Un as well as making an impressive statement in Europe, with Leonardo Jardim's men well placed to advance to the semi-finals of the Champions League after a 3-2 away victory in the first leg of their quarter-final tie against Borussia Dortmund, on Wednesday, a match that was of course rearranged after a bomb attack on the Dortmund bus 24 hours previously.
A few more of these beauties from Di Maria could come in very useful for Unai Emery's team between now and the end of the season.
