He Scored The Greatest Goal Falling Flat On His Face.
Sometimes greatness happens by accident. That is exactly what happened when Philipp Schobesberger fell flat on his face en route to a superb finish, that honestly should land him on the Puskas. Okay, maybe his goal shouldn't be on the Puskas watchlist, but it was clinical and it deceived everyone involved, including himself. But we're just going to pretend that he planned the entire thing and that is was the best goal of the year.
Schobesberger was on a clear breakaway, mano y mano with the keeper, before he tries to make what looks like a quick cut to his right past the keeper. Except, the young Austrian lost his footing, which brought him to the ground. But in clutch fashion, Schobesberger's left leg stayed true and swung with the ball as his entire body fell right. His leg connected perfectly with the ball as he sent it past the charging keeper. To make this goal even cooler than it already is, the golazo was the game winning goal to earn a 2-1 victory against Viktoria Plzen.
