A 'rabona' can make you look like an absolute tit if it doesn't come off, but when it does...
Roma claimed a relatively easy 4-1 win against Viktoria Plzen on Thursday night in the Europa League, with Edin Dzeko bagging a hat-trick in the process, but his thunder was well and truly stole by Argentinian attacker Diego Perotti.
He thought it would be a good idea to whip out a rabona, presumably inspired by Ricardo Quaresma's incredible assist in the Champions League the night before, and he was dead right. He lobbed the keeper, but as it was intended as a cross, he refused to celebrate.

Fair play to him, most would have run off like Pippo Inzaghi and told everyone they had been practising it in training all week.
Also, cross or not, it's still an absolutely beautiful goal.
