Ending a rather worrysonme four-game drought, Borussia Dortmund striker Serhou Guirassy is finally back among the goals today.
The Guinean international converted a lovely free-kick from Julian Ryerson by connecting with it inside the box with a simple finish for 2-2.
Having struggled to find that killer pass, Guirassy came close a few times in the match but the move fizzled out before he could make a shot.
The 30-year-old striker is back in the lineup today after starting consecutive games from the bench and it seems like he's vindicated Niko Kovac's decision.
Indeed, it was turning out to be a frustrating outing for Dortmund's prolific marksman, who didn't see much of the ball during the initial exchanges and being heavily marked by Roma's defenders.
But when a clear-cut opportunity presented itself, he converted it and brought the BVB level after having fallen 2-0 behind inside the opening 10 minutes of the match.
Although it's just preseason and his goals count for nothing, seeing Guirassy get on target is always something to cheer for the fans as he's shaping up nicely for next week's crunch showdown with Bayern Munich.
As the clubs head into the break on level terms at 2-2 and keeping the tie finely poised, here's how fans reacted to Guirassy scoring again:
One X user drew an interesting comparison between Guirassy and a certain Chelsea legend:

""Serhou Guirassy should be viewed as one of the best strikers in Europe he’s physically imposing he’s good in the air he’s good with off the ball movement he’s good finisher""
