In 2025, international football saw a series of goals that crossed borders before even crossing the finish line. From masterpieces forged on the biggest stages on the planet to unexpected flashes in peripheral leagues, the year was full of moves that redefined angles, challenged goalkeepers and sparked clashes. Each goal seemed to be a reminder that, despite tactics and technology, the game still belongs to the unpredictable moment.
There were shots that traveled like missiles, dribbles that dismantled entire defenses, incredible volleys and team plays that looked like choreographies rehearsed for months – but created in seconds. GLOBO selects the goals that have become global events, echoing from Madrid to Tokyo, from Manchester to Buenos Aires, and proving that the art of football remains universal.
