David Luiz has added to his collection of wondergoals with another sweet strike tonight in the Europa League.

Chelsea looked in danger of failing to make the final in Amsterdam when after a lacklustre opening 45 minutes and Basle deservedly took a one goal lead into the break.
Rafa Benitez must have had some choice words at the break as the Blues hit the Swiss for three goals in the first 14 minutes of the second period and the Brazilian defender’s long range curler was the pick of the bunch as the London side look to march into the final this month.
Frank Lampard had the ball outside the box and rolled the ball to his long-haired colleague who hit a first-time 25 yard curler into the roof of the net beyond a motionless Sommer in goals. And with his weaker foot.
It’s not his first belter of the season and doesn’t hit a ball half-bad for a footballer once likened to a PlayStation player. Basle for their part will be sick of the sight of the Chelsea man after he scored the late winner in the first leg.
