FIFA has announced an 11-player shortlist for this year's Puskas Award, with Patrik Schick's goal against Scotland at Euro 2020 among the nominees.
Czech forward Schick beat goalkeeper David Marshall with one of the most remarkable goals in European Championship history, a stunning 45-meter strike from just inside the halfway line as his team beat Scotland 2-0.
Schick's effort was subsequently voted goal of the tournament.
Tottenham Hotspur forward Son Heung-min won the award in 2020 for his solo effort against Burnley in the Premier League in which he ran nearly the length of the pitch, dribbling past several Burnley defenders before scoring.
Manchester City's Caroline Weir makes a second consecutive appearance in the shortlist, courtesy of a deft chip from the edge of the box in an FA Women's Super League derby match against Manchester United.
Premier League players Erik Lamela and Riyad Mahrez are also on the list.
Lamela scored with a rabona against Arsenal in a North London derby and Mahrez was recognized for his solo effort against Zimbabwe while on international duty with Algeria.
The winner of the award will be selected by an international jury comprised of former footballers and select fans from across the globe. The winner will be announced on Jan. 17.
