Mohammed Salah ’s stunning goal against Everton in the Meyerside derby has won FIFA Puskas award. The Egyptian scored the goal last year, during a domestic League fixture between Liverpool and Everton.
The goal won the award over former Real Madrid striker’s, Cristiano Ronaldo, overhead kick against Juventus in the UEFA Champions League Quarterfinal and Gareth Bales’s stunning strike against Liverpool in the final of the same competition.
Surprisingly, the goal was not even among Salah’s best goal for last year when he was asked to list his best strikes.
As a result of this, fans have been on social media ranting against FIFA claiming that the award was dubious.
See the goal below:

Biggest stages on World football. Salad didn’t even smell a big award except for the consolation Puskas award.
Biggest stage? I'm guessing Ronaldo was there also. Man get your facts straight. The fact that you saying salah got puskas award as a consolation is funny. Man deserved nothing.
