The shortlist for the 2025 Puskas Award has been revealed.
Arsenal’s Declan Rice and Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal are looking the leading contenders looking to follow in the footsteps of previous winners including Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Neymar, Mohamed Salah and Cristiano Ronaldo.
But which have been the absolute best of the best of the calendar year? We’ve ranked all 11 goals on the shortlist.
11. Lucas Ribeiro – MAMELODI SUNDOWNS vs Borussia Dortmund
Admittedly DAZN cut out the lovely turn that gets Ribeiro turning on the afterburners, but we’re still a bit perplexed about this one.
It’s a cool goal, a bit novel, but ultimately Ribeiro rides one challenge and runs quite fast in a straight line before a regulation finish.
Call us conspiratorial, but we reckon FIFA were a bit too desperate to showcase a moment from their expanded Club World Cup.
Micky van de Ven and countless others were robbed.
