VIDEO: Vote For The Best Goal Of The Week (August 30 - September 5)
Goal.com and 101 Great Goals invite you to vote for the best strike of the week...
By 101 Great Goals
Goals one, two and three all provided evidence of the rocket-power simmering away under the surface in the second divisions in Germany, Brazil, Spain. On a similar theme, goal four showed the huge talent strutting around in the reserve league in England.
Yet the big boys were able to chip in with a few beauties of their own. While goal five showed that international football can also serve up howitzers, goal six was something a little more special as it set the benchmark for volleys this year.
Without giving too much away arguably the standout out goal this week is positioned at number seven, while rounding off the list were three crackers from Italy's Serie B.
Without further ado, all we ask is that you sit back and enjoy! And remember to scroll down to the bottom to vote for your favourite.
