Fifa have annonced their top ten goals of the year and believe me, there are some absolute corkers. Do not be alarmed, but many of the players will be unknown to the most avid of football fans (myself included).
I am particularly fond of the one above, not least because of the commentary that accompanies a piece of individual brilliance. Japan’s Under-17 Kumi Yokoyama, dubbed “the female Maradona”, slaloms into the six-yard box through 6 North Korean players, before effortlessly sliding the ball into the bottom left corner. It is a masterclass in individual skill and the sign of a virtuoso.
We’ve provided you with one of the ten, but hit the link below to see the other nine. I’m sure your superiors will understand.
