The FIFA Puskas Award is the prize given to the player who is adjudged to have scored the "most beautiful" goal in world soccer over the last year.
Founded in 2009 and named in honor of Real Madrid's legendary striker Ferenc Puskas, previous winners include Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar, and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
The award doesn't always go to a household name, however. In 2016, for instance, the award was given to Mohd Faiz Subri, a Malaysian soccer star, while in 2019, a little known Hungarian called Dániel Zsóri took the trophy home.
That could be the case again this year with FIFA including goals from the Mexican, Austrian, and Irish leagues in its 11 goal shortlist released on Wednesday.
It could also be the first time a female player scoops the prize, with a record three having been nominated.
Watch all of the nominees' goals below, then head over to FIFA and vote your favourite, with the winner to be announced at The Best FIFA Football Awards in Zurich on December 17.
