Julian Draxler has been touted as one of the finest talents in Europe for some time now, and while he surprised many by claiming that the pressure which came with being a star player at Schalke was having an adverse effect on his game, he certainly does seem to be fitting in nicely at Wolfsburg.
The World Cup winner bagged two away goals for the German side in Belgium on Wednesday night and looked to have pretty much booked his team a place in the quarter-finals as they were cruising at 2-0 up.
The first was a perfectly placed bottom-corner-curler after some fancy footwork and a one-two:
But the second was just sublime:
Take a bow son.
Max Kruse made it 3-0 shortly after that second goal, but two late replies from Gent made it interesting as they head back to Wolfsburg with the tie interestingly poised at 3-2.
Great stuff from Draxler.
