The FIFA Puskás Award
Created in honour of Ferenc Puskás, captain
and star of the Hungarian national team during the 1950s, the FIFA
Puskás Award will be bestowed upon the player from either the men’s
or women’s game judged to have scored the best goal of the
year.
The final decision will be down to you, the
users of FIFA.com, with your votes counting
towards selecting a winner from ten videos as chosen by the FIFA
Football Committee. In making their decision, the FIFA Football
Committee applied the following criteria:
1. Aesthetics (a
subjective criterion – long-range shots, team moves, acrobatic
goals etc)
2. The importance of the match (an objective
criterion – in descending order: national teams, continental
tournaments, domestic first divisions)
3. The absence of luck or an opposition mistake as
a factor making the goal possible
4. Fair Play: the player must not have conducted
himself poorly during the game or, for example, have been found
guilty of doping
5. The date: goals scored between July 2008 and
July 2009
All that remains now is for you to vote for
your favourite goal and contribute to choosing the recipient of the
2009 FIFA Puskás Award.
The winner will be unveiled at the FIFA
World Player gala on 21 December, where he or she will receive the
FIFA Puskas Award trophy, with their name engraved upon it.
