Celtic legend Henrik Larsson’s son is clearly a chip off the old block with this stunning 40-yarder

Cheeky

He’s got goals in his DNA.

Jordan Larsson is flourishing at Helsingborgs IF under father/manager Henrik, who you may remember from his goalscoring exploits at Celtic.

Young Larsson was the deciding factor when Helsingborgs hosted AIK on Thursday night.

The 18-year-old scored the winner in the 75th minute, ensuring a 2-1 victory for the hosts with an absolutely glorious free kick from about 40 yards out.

He also scored the opener which wasn’t half bad either.

Larsson was played through by a sumptuous ball from Martin Christensen and being wedged between full back and centre-half didn’t bother the youngster whatsoever.

The Sweden U19 international allowed the ball to bounce twice in the AIK box, shaped to hit it with his right before bamboozling the goalkeeper with a left-footed chip into the bottom corner.
