18-year-old wins Puskas award for best goal ahead of Messi and Quintero

Hungarian 18-year-old Daniel Zsori has won the FIFA Puskas Award for the best goal of 2019 ahead of Lionel Messi and River Plate's Juan Fernando Quintero.

Zsori's stunning bicycle kick was made all the more incredible by the fact that it was the 18-years-old first ever professional match. 

The Debrecen forward made his debut with less than 10 minutes remaining and with the game heading into stoppage time he managed to score the most sensational winner. 

Debrecen won the match against Ferencvaros in the Hungarian first division 2-1. 

Zsori has since moved on to fellow Hungarian side Fehervar. 

The 18-year-old beat out Lionel Messi's stunning chip against Real Betis and Juan Fernando Quintero's thunderbolt free-kick for River Plate against Racing Club.
