WATCH: Lanus' Walter Bou's Acrobatic Bicycle Kick Is 'Out-Of-This-World'

What is the best bicycle kick goal that you can think of?

Was it the one Wayne Rooney scored for Manchester United against arch-rival Manchester City in 2011 or the one that five-time Ballon d’Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo netted for Real Madrid against Juventus in the Quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League in the 2017-2018 season?

Now have a look at Lanus forward Walter Bou’s acrobatic effort against Tigre and think where will you place it among the best over-head kicks scored in footballing history.

After receiving a cross outside of the box, in the second phase of the Argentine Primera Division clash, Bou chested it aerially and then thumped it into the far corner with an outrageous bicycle kick. It was scored from almost 20 yards out with the Tigre goalkeeper remaining unmoved.

Watch the incredible effort here: 

The incredible effort from the forward puts him among the top contenders for the Puskas Award, leaving most fans stunned.

Moreover, it also turned out to be the winner of the match in the 90th minute with Lanus earning all three points to be placed at the ninth spot of the Argentine Primera División second phase.

It will truly be no surprise to see Bou’s name in the Puskas Award’s nomination when the list is revealed. He has netted a total of 14 goals in 25 appearances but this one remains on top of the lot.
