Sky Sports are running a competition to decide on 2014’s best goal in La Liga, and we don’t envy whoever has to pick the winner.
Gareth Bale’s astonishing speed lit up the Copa del Rey final, while Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are, of course, among the nominations, the Barcelona star for a trademark mazy dribble and his Real Madrid rival for a typically insouciant backheel, but we reckon some of the other contenders are even better.
SportsJOE is particularly fond of the incredibly well-timed strikes from Ibai Gomez and Saul Berjon.
