[스포티비뉴스=김한림·장하준 영상기자]The most special Puskas Award winner of all time has been born.
The FIFA Football Awards have announced the winner of the Puskas Award each year. The Puskas Award is an award given to the player who scored the coolest and most special goal in the soccer game on a yearly basis.
In particular, in 2020, Son Heung-min of Korea received the Puskas Award, and it is also an award that receives more attention. Son Heung-min completed a fantastic 70m goal once morest Burnley in the 2019/20 Premier League. This goal is still etched in the memory of football fans.
And the 2022 FIFA Football Awards held on the 28th. Interestingly, the winner of the Puskas Award announced today was not a professional soccer player.
The main character is Marcin Oleksi from Poland. This player is a player who competed in the para soccer league on crutches due to the amputation of one leg.
It is obviously not an easy situation to play with crutches. But Oleksi did a really fantastic scissor kick in the Para Soccer League that even professional soccer players mightn’t put in.
And this goal proudly won the Puskas Award, beating professional players, and Oleksi became the main character of human victory.
Oleksi broke the prejudice that the Puskas Award was only for professional players. This award brought a warm impression to football fans.
