Top Ten Goals From Across The World In 2016 – Featuring Dele Alli’s Wonder Strike Against Crystal Palace

6. Henrikh Mkhitaryan (Manchester United vs Sunderland, Premier League 2016/17)

The latest goal in this list, Mkhitaryan makes it here with a piece of magic at the Old Trafford against Sunderland on Boxing Day. Zlatan Ibrahimović sent in a cross from the right flank but the ball was slightly behind the Armenian. However, it did not seem to bother Mkhitaryan as he hit a stunning backheel flick over his head past the Sunderland goalkeeper. Despite a hint of offside in the goal, it was a piece of magnificent acrobatics combined with amazing skills that brought Old Trafford to a standstill.

5. Dele Alli (Tottenham Hotspur vs Crystal Palace, Premier League 2015/16)

Alli enjoyed a stellar first season at Tottenham last year. One of the most memorable moments he gave the fans was this strike against the Eagles. The English midfielder controlled the ball with a lovely cushioned first touch, then lobbed the ball over his head and in the process taking the onrushing Mile Jedinak completely out of the picture, before turning to hit a venomous volley into the back of the net.
