Watch as Roma defender Dean Huijsen scores a sensational solo goal with a mazy run from his own half, a replica of one he netted for Juventus Next Gen, and understand the reasons he was booked for his celebration.
The centre-back joined Roma on loan from Juve in the January transfer window and this was already his second goal for the club.
He broke the deadlock in the trip to Frosinone, starting the run from his own half, dribbling through a crowd of opponents and curling a right-foot finish into the far top corner.

It was a fantastic solo effort and he celebrated first by leaping into the air in the Cristiano Ronaldo style, then by putting a finger to his lips to silence the crowd.
This latest gesture earned Huijsen a yellow card, but there was history behind it.
Frosinone had already agreed a loan move with Juventus in January, only for Huijsen to demand he join Roma instead as soon as the opportunity presented itself, so the local fans were insulting him at every touch even before the goal.
Meanwhile, this was hardly a new moment of magic for Huijsen, as the centre-back had also scored a similar goal for the Juventus Next Gen team in Serie C.
#FrosinoneRoma Dean Huijsen did it again! Poco più di un anno fa, stessa magnifica idea con l'Under 23 juventina contro il Foggia.
