Jordan Larsson has big boots to fill when you consider his father was one of Europe's greatest forwards, but the 18-year-old looks like he could be handy in his own right.
Turning out for Henrik's Helsingborg, young Jordan scored a stunning goal from his distance with his left foot. It met with the approval of his dad, who netted plenty of them during his career.
Capped 106 times by Sweden, Henrik Larsson scored 51 goals in 61 games for Helsingborg before embarking on a glittering career in which he won win four Scottish league titles and the 2001 European Golden boot as the continent's top scorer with Celtic.
He left Scotland for Barcelona in 2004 and went on to win two La Liga crowns and the 2006 Champions League.
He returned to Helsingborg for the last four seasons of his playing career, broken by a short loan period at Manchester United in 2007 before hanging up his boots in 2009.
Larsson's goal helped his side complete a 3-1 win, and left some local commentators comparing him to Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Being half as good as his dad will be a start.
