Gokulam Kerala women’s striker scores wonder goal, FIFA thinks it’s ‘Puskas Award’ contender

The world football body tweeted about a goal scored by Vivian Adjei Konadu, the women’s team striker of Kozhikode-based club Gokulam Kerala.

Interestingly, the goal in mention was not even scored at a national-level tournament. It was one from a state-level event, the Kerala Women’s League. Gokulam Kerala were in action against Basco Othukungal.

The Puskas Award instituted in honour of Real Madrid and Hungary legend Ferenc Puskas is given to the most aesthetically significant or beautiful goal scored by a male or female player in a calendar year.
