Puskas
The man above is the famous Ferenc Puskas, from the ancient football powerhouse Hungary. Played for the giants Real Madrid. Puskas's life is a legend in football, having led Real Madrid to three European Champions Cups, and in the 1960 Champions League final, Puskas scored four goals alone to stage the big four. The national team career was even more brilliant, scoring 84 goals in 85 appearances for Hungary, winning the gold medal at the 1952 Olympic Games and the runner-up in the World Cup in 1954.
In 2006, the football legend died of illness at the age of 79, and in 2009 FIFA announced that the goal of the year award was named the --- Puskas Award.
Salah
Well, after introducing the origin of the award, the following returns to the main topic, since 2009 has been awarded 12 Puskas Awards, each goal is wonderful, but also very topical, especially some goals in the same year may not be more exciting than other goals, but won awards, so that many fans are a little disappointed. However, these 12 goals are the final choice given by the official, and today I will give you a review of these 12 goals.
2009 ---C Manchester United vs Porto
Ronaldo
In this Champions League game, Manchester United faced Porto, and C Ronaldo's earth-shattering shot in front of the centre circle became the only goal in that game. Since then, words such as unreasonable long-range shooting, elevator balls, and violent pumping have accompanied his career. Cristiano Ronaldo also started with this ball on the path of superstardom. This year's Puskas Prize is well deserved.
In 2010--- Altentop Turkey vs Kazakhstan
Turkish Altentop in 1982 did not have a high-profile career, and many fans did not know the name of the man. But in this European Championship qualifier for Turkey against Kazakhstan, Turkey beat their opponents 3-0. And Artentop received a teammate's corner kick outside the box and volleyed straight into the dead corner to win the Puskas Prize that year, which was also the highlight of Altentop's career.
In 2011--- Neymar Santos vs Flamenco.
Neymar
Neymar in the Santos period was also full of vitality, in the Barbados Santos vs Flamengo match, after Neymar received the opponent's pass, the ball was divided across the opposing defender, facing the two defenders and the opponent's goalkeeper's 3-man bag, falling to the ground to pick out the score won the Puskas Prize that year. But this goal may honestly be a better bonus than the goal, and the final shot may not be as good as the previous two years.
In 2012--- Stoker Fenerbahce vs Genklebilligi
Another long-range shot, similar to the 2010 goal, Stoch took a corner kick from his teammate and volleyed directly into the net, a goal that may be highly repeated in the Puskas Prize, but on the field, it is indeed a very high-quality goal. The same angle is extremely tricky, and the non-stop direct shot is the same as the goal in 2010, I don't know which one you think is of higher quality.
In 2013--- Ibrahimovic Sweden vs England
Ibrahimovic
Come, this man he finally came, the fairy ball professional household, the person of the big Ibu finally came. In Sweden's match against England, Ibrahimovic staged a shocking barb, taking advantage of the goalkeeper's mistakes, directly into the opposing goal from 33 meters away, and the English defender flew to break the siege. The brilliance of this goal is unprecedented, and to be honest, this goal can also be regarded as the most wonderful of the Puskas Awards, a miracle that is difficult for others to replicate.
In 2014--- James Rodriguez Colombia vs Uruguay
J Ronaldo
In that year's World Cup, J Ronaldo turned out to lead Colombia to the final four and won the Golden Boot award of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. This is Colombia's match against Uruguay. J Ronaldo turned and shot, and the ball flew straight into the dead corner of the goal at high speed. In one fell swoop, he won the Puskas Prize that year. J Ronaldo himself also landed on the Galaxy Real Madrid team with the highlight performance of the World Cup, opening the peak of his career.
2015 --- Lila Brazilian Fourth League
This year's Puskas Prize was awarded to an obscure player, Lila, who was able to win the award from Brazil's Fourth League and proved how wonderful the goal was. It's a sporty battle, with multiple passes to tear through the opposing line. With a wonderful pass to catch, several wall-bumping combinations quickly tore apart the opposing defense, and Lila completed the final barb break. The whole goal is the perfect embodiment of the art of the team, and the individual shooting. It's beautiful and impeccable. I think it's better than Neymar's goal.
--- Soubri in 2016
This is a player from Malaysia, equally unknown and equally brilliant in his goals. The goal was also the only puskas award currently with a direct free-kick. After the ball is sent, it draws a strange anti-physical curve and rotates sharply to the right in front of the goal, and the opposing goalkeeper has nothing to do.
2017 --- Giroud Arsenal vs Crystal Palace
Big Giroud's goal is actually similar to Ibrahimovic's scorpion tail swing that year. Olivier Giroud, who also has a tall stature, can shock the four with such a delicate and exquisite goal, announcing to the fans that tough guys can also play delicate.
In 2018--- Salah Liverpool vs Everton
After receiving a pass from his opponent, the Egyptian pharaoh connected two people in the penalty area and finally shot the ball in the far corner of the goal. Won that year's Puskas Prize. In fact, the quality of this ball is still good, but this year's Puskas Prize is also the most controversial one. The goal alone was beautiful, but it was a bit dwarfed by other candidates of the same year, or the winners of previous years.
This goal is indeed inferior in the Puskas Prize, passing, and the shot is wonderful but not yet to the point of shocking the four. As for why the controversy is so big, it is because there were indeed a lot of very good goals in 2018, which made fans a little annoyed by Salah's award, believing that FIFA gave this award to take care of Salah's injury. Let's take a look at Ronaldo's barb shot in the same year, and The Earth-shattering Barb of Bale in the Champions League final.
Bale Champions League final barb
Both of these goals were wonderful barb shots, and Bale's goal, whether it was the distance from the goal, whether there was an opponent's defense, and the importance of the game, was slightly better than Ronaldo's barb. But both goals were brilliant and far better in the hearts of the fans than Salah's goal. But unfortunately did not receive the award. It should be said that these two goals are the winners of the 2018 Puskas Awards in the hearts of fans.
Daniel Zori, --- 2019
Fast forward to 2019, the goal returned to the barb goal, and Daniel's barbed ball on the edge of the box went straight into the dead corner. Brilliant.
In 2020--- Sun Xingyu
South Korean champion Son Heung-min's goal was also the only sporting goal in the Puskas Prize, running long distances from his own penalty area, relying on speed and skill to get rid of several people, and calmly pushing and scoring in front of the goalkeeper. A perfect reproduction of Maradona's miracles. To be honest, I couldn't believe the brilliance of this goal was that this Asian player had done. The excitement is staggering.
As of 2020, I have listed all the winners of the Puskas Prize, and this year's awards have not yet come out, but there are also many candidate goals, such as Sigg's ultra-long hanging shot, etc., after which I will list the candidates one by one. See who will spend it this year. We also see that the Puskas Prize still has a lot of unsung players, indicating that this award is not monopolized by superstars, and we hope to see the figure of our players one day.
More football anecdotes, more football views, more goal highlights. If you don't have time to watch the ball, pay attention to the little TAO, watch the ball together, talk about the ball, and talk about the ball.
