First a dance performance at a wedding, then a dream goal in the Nations League: RB Leipzig's Yussuf Poulsen wowed friends and soccer fans alike in his native Denmark with his physical finesse. After his artistic overhead kick to make the final score 2:0 for the Danish national team against Serbia, the 30-year-old striker was aware of the special nature of his goal.
"It's not that often that you get to see and score a bicycle kick goal," said Poulsen. Only a few players manage something like that during their career - "so of course it was spectacular."
However, Poulsen did not want to crown the feat as the single best goal of his career. "The goal is in the top two," he said. "I scored a really good goal against Augsburg a few years ago, which was just as technically difficult." The Dane was presumably referring to a direct volley in Augsburg in October 2020.
