The Story in 60 Seconds

GiveMeSport's Callum Altimas ranked every recipient of the FIFA Puskas Award, placing Zlatan Ibrahimovic's 2013 strike for Sweden at the top of the list. The ranking evaluates goals based on distance, buildup, opposition quality, competition level, and match significance. Ibrahimovic finished ahead of Olivier Giroud's 2017 scorpion kick for Arsenal and Son Heung-min's 2020 solo effort for Tottenham Hotspur.

At the bottom of the list, Altimas ranked Mohamed Salah's 2018 Merseyside derby goal for Liverpool in last place at 17th, arguing it was undeserving of the award over Cristiano Ronaldo's overhead kick. Other strikes featured include Wendell Lira in 16th, Miroslav Stoch in 15th, and Ronaldo's 2009 winner for Manchester United in 13th.
