Juventus got off to a perfect start in France with this gem of a goal

Angel Di Maria is a football god. Let's not even debate this. In case you haven't knew this already - this goal should be enough to convince you.

Juventus faced a hostile atmosphere in their Europa League match at Nantes, but the Argentinean winger easily defused the situation.

Inside the opening five minutes at Stade de la Beaujoire, Juventus took the lead in magical circumstances.

Angel Di Maria hit a lovely left-footed curler from the corner of the penalty area into the far corner to give his team the aggregate 2-1 lead and minutes later, his skill drew a red card from Nantes and a penalty. Di Maria himself converted the penalty kick to make it 2-0 to the Italian club on the night and 3-1 on aggregate.

Di Maria added a late third to complete his hat-trick and give Juventus a good win against an inspired opponent and an enthusiastic fanbase.
