Rogelio Chavez of Cruz Azul has just booked his spot in the Puskas Award nominee list with this effort.
This is a nailed on certainty to be in all the goal of the year round-ups come December. Scored by Rogelio Chavez, a defender for Cruz Azul against Queretaro in the Mexican Premier League at the weekend, we can safely say we have never seen a goal like it.
From a throw-in near the halfway line, Chavez lashes an enormous looped volley in the general direction of the opposition net but a combination of skill, luck, the wind and possibly a dodgy keeper sees the ball incredibly cross the line.

But this behind the goal view is even better…
Unbelievable Jeff and it sealed a 3-1 win for his side in the 89th minute.
