#7 Faiz Subri – Penang vs Pahang (Malaysian Super League)
Trending
Definitely in the top 10 goals of the year, and without a doubt the best free kick of the year.
The trajectory of the ball in this astounding hit is something you usually achieve only while playing FIFA with your sliders maxed out. The midfielder lined up the ball almost 35 metres away from the goal and from a nearly impossible angle on the left-hand side of the pitch.
Shades of Roberto Carlos’ now immortal goal against France in 1997, Subri hit the ball with such force and curve that it dipped and swerved in such a manner that the goalkeeper stood no chance at all.
The stadium was left in shock, and the player was on cloud nine. A goal for the ages, and it is, therefore, no shock that this makes the Puskas top 3 for the year. If a more famous player scored this, we’d never stop talking about it.
