Chelsea loanee Fernando Torres had a mare for AC Milan against Fiorentina this weekend.

Torres, who once cost £50m, went for an acrobatic scissor kick in the 1-1 draw, but his effort (see below) was so wayward the ball looked to be heading all the way for a throw in before a team mate kept it in play.

Milan missed the chance to go third in Serie A as they were held to the 1-1 draw at the San Siro.

Nigel de Jong headed the Rossoneri into a 25th-minute lead, but second-half substitute Josip Ilicic fired La Viola level.

Two dropped points meant Filippo Inzaghi's side had to be content with sixth place, a point behind third-spotted Udinese, with the visitors down in 11th.
