The FIFA Pukas Award

I didn't realise FIFA did anything like this (goal of the year), some fantastic goals being scored. You can vote here:

Be sure to check out the goal from Matthew Burrows, MLT would have been proud of scoring one like that.

Fair play to that Japanese woman, I counted 6 players she went past?

As for Messi's goal it is fantastic but I don't think that was even his best this year. The one he got against Stuttgart was better than that

Matty Burrows' goal is wonderful but I'm more inclined to go for the Swedish lad's wonderstrike. Breathtaking with every viewing.

It's like Van Basten's famous volley x10.

Has everyone seen Ronaldos 'non' goal the other night., Pure Class.

Gotta go with Linus. Mind you - the first three are hard to split.

Has to be Linus as well, but an honorable mention to the Burrows lad.

I thought this thread was going to be about Wigan getting some sort of prize for their meat and potatoe...

That Linus Hallenius goal is unbelievable.

Ball bounced over his head, he swung his left peg and it went in, Brian. See that kind of stuff every Sunday at the local park.

Thought that Burrows goal was superb but Hallenius one is possibly the best goal I've ever seen.

My vote...

1. Linus Hallenius

2. Matthew Burrows

3. Giovanni Van Bronkhorst

Turkish lad's one was good but I feel players try that every single week and one has to go in eventually.

Ball bounced over his head, he swung his left peg and it went in, Brian. See that kind of stuff every Sunday at the local park.

True that, see goals like that at least once a season in local footie.....seen some great goals over the years.
