RB Leipzig's Jean-Kévin Augustin Ruthless Piece Of Skill

Jean-Kévin Augustin produced the most outrageous piece of skill last night in the Champions League.
RB Leipzig faced Porto with the Bundesliga side coming out on top after beating the Portuguese outfit 3-2. Willi Orban, Emil Forsberg and Jean-Kevin Augustin got on the score sheet.
Though the latter also sent social media into overdrive following his silky roulette turn, retiring not one but TWO Porto players in the process.
We're pretty sure Zinedine Zidane would be proud of the Frenchman's effort. Time to gawk. This is plain silly:
Stop it, Jean-Kévin Augustin, those two Porto defenders have families!

Jean-Kévin Augustin is starting to look like a superb acquisition by RB Leipzig. Porto have struggled to contain him, thus far.

The German side snapped up Augustin in the summer from Paris Saint-Germain, and he's proving to be a solid acquisition. He's already weighed in with three goals from the opening six league games.
Meanwhile, the fans in attendance and watching worldwide were treated to a spectacular opening 45 minutes. All five of the goals came in the first half.

Orban gave the hosts the lead before Vincent Aboubakr leveled. Forsberg restored Leipzig's lead with the man of the moment, Augustin, making it 3-1. Ivan Marcano pulled one back ahead of the break
Yet nothing topped his insane skill.
