Legendary striker Luca Toni bids farewell with an audacious panenka during last ever match (Video)

What with the side lacking any real form of word class striker as of late, what Azzuri fans would give to have a young and free scoring Luca Toni available for selection for this summers Euro’s.

The 38 year old veteran bowed out of professional football in a grand manner this weekend, scoring a glorious panenka during Verona’s impressive 2-1 victory of Serie A champs Juventus.

Whilst his side have already been condemned to relegation this season, the 2006 World Cup gave himself and Verona a moment of pure Italian genius to sign off on.

Naturally it led to his trademark ‘screw a light bulb in your ear’ celebration.

Standard.

Here’s yet man getting applauded of during his substation near the end of the 90.
