It really was a brilliant goal but not everyone was on board with it being the best goal of the tournament.
To be fair Ludogorets are a major Bulgarian team so this is a bit of an unfair assessment.

Arsenal fans in general seemed pretty pleased with the decision – which shouldn’t come as much of a surprise.
Not as spectacular as super Mario’s goal but mesuts still classy and he assisted himself as well ? #assistking #yagunnersya

It was not so much the goal but the quality of opposition Ozil scored against that some people had a problem with.
This is not hating on Ozil, his goal against Ludo was a great goal but personally think this one was better, again, personal opinion ⚽️ pic.twitter.com/k70L26J42A

And there were more than a few shouts for Mandzukic’s stunning strike against Real Madrid in the Champions League final.
I was wondering how they gave Ozil the best goal when there’s still a UCL match to be played… We’ve seen 2 beauties in this game.
