Watch: The eerie similarities between Pirlo and Tonali’s first goals for AC Milan

AC Milan midfielder Sandro Tonali got his first goal for the club last night, and fans have noticed an eerie similarity with a player he has been compared to in Andrea Pirlo.

It was back on 30 March 2002 that Pirlo scored his first goal with Milan in a 3–1 home win over Parma, courtesy of a free-kick that looped up and over the wall and in at the near post. The one that Tonali scored last night – also his first for the Rossoneri – certainly had striking similarities.
