The 3rd one with the boy from Hammarby for me

Some absolute belters in there. But no place for Riordan

is it wrong to watch Leo Messi's goal and now just think standard? cos he's done it so often, hell he did it again tonight against brazil

I agree, the Swedish guys is the best..... But I voted for the Irish guy!

Always vote for the underdog!!

If that hadn't been Messi then I don't think it would be on the shortlist. Good goal but I don't think he did anything absolutely special and the Nasri and Yokoyama goals were far better versions of that type of goal.

Anyway, Altintop for me. I love big volleys into the top corner from outside the box.

If Deek's attempt for a 3rd on Saturday hadn't been saved, that would have been the obvious winner.

When I got in from the cup game against Kilmarnock, I just wanted to watch a game of proper football. Actually, just any football, to calm me down. The ONLY game I could find on all my sports channels was Japan vs North Korea in the Female U-17s World Cup... obviously want Japan to win but they're 1-0 down, 20 minutes to go. Japan score when a cross is lobbed over the tiny Korean keeper, 1-1.

THEN. Yokoyama Kumi scores that goal that's 10th in the list there. I was cheering, it was a great moment. I voted for her, because a) it was a really good goal/moment that cheered me up a lot after the Hibs game and b) because I would love it if Messi/Robben etc. were beaten to goal of the year by a Japanese schoolgirl.

So I think everyone else should vote for her as well.. Oh and Japan won that game 2-1 so that was the winning goal

So, it's got absolutely nothing to do with your obsession with Japanese schoolgirls then?
