Bayern Munich have about a dozen great free kick takers, so to get the job for the Bavarians, you have to be exceptional.

David Alaba is exceptional.

That free kick might as well be a work of art. You couldn't walk up to the goal and place the ball in a better place. To say it's inch perfect sells it short. It's perfect, period.

Next time Bayern Munich get a free kick, this is how the discussion is going to go:

Robben: "I want it, I'm great at these."
Ribery: "True, but I'm also great at these."
Lewandowski: "You're both great, but so am I and I want it."
Alonso: "Seriously, hitting the ball is what I do. You're all great, but it's gotta be me."
Alaba: "Excuse me, but did you see my last free kick?"
Everyone: "Good point. It's yours, David."

And that is exactly how it should go.
