been watching this guy. he is a german born turkish national, stands strong, won't easily fall down when he is tackled. he has also great shooting feet. not a star player but 100% team player.

scored an incredible goal against Kazakhstan in the uefa euro 2012 qualifying game. no luck involved, pure skills.

later this goal selected the 'most beautiful goal of the year'
officially called "fifa puskas award' in other words 'golden ball'
