Rebic has faith in Jovic scoring he celebrates BEFORE striker touches the ball

  /  autty

Ante Rebic gave team-mate Luka Jovic the ultimate show of faith by celebrating before the Serbian scored a one-on-one during Eintracht Frankfurt's Europa League semi-final clash against Chelsea.

Jovic's strike took the tie to penalties where the German club narrowly lost, but the young striker now has 27 goals during a prolific season.

As the ball reaches Jovic, he is just inside the area with only Chelsea stopper Kepa Arrizabalaga to beat.

Croatian Rebic can be seen just behind Jovic, arms already lifted in celebration as his team-mate dispatches the chance with ease.

Remarkably, however, this isn't the first time this season that Jovic has pre-empted a goal, having done similar against Schalke in November.

Jovic scored twice with strike partner Sebastien Haller adding the third, and Jovic could be seen with his arms outstretched before the 66th-minute opener.
