The top ten goals from UEFA EURO 2024 qualifying have been selected by UEFA's Technical Observer panel, with Liechtenstein's Sandro Wolfinger finishing first for his incredible strike against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
With the ball dropping high out of the air, Wolfinger connected with the sweetest of volleys from outside the box to leave Bosnian goalkeeper Ibrahim Šehić with no chance.
In second place is Azerbaijan's Emin Makhmudov, whose astonishing dipping effort from just inside the opponent's half helped his side beat Sweden 3-0. Making up the top three is Türkiye winger Yunus Akgün for his beautiful volley during his team's 4-0 victory over Latvia in October.
A number of other big names made the top ten in a high-quality list, including England's Bukayo Saka, France forward Kylian Mbappé and Leandro Trossard of Belgium.
