Spectacular: Lisa De Vanna has been nominated for goal of the year. In a display of sublime athleticism and superb technique, the 28 year-old struck a stunning overhead kick while running on to a lofty cross played into the box. The ball appeared to have been poorly delivered and played behind the path of her run, but De Vanna instinctively reacted by turning her back to goal and letting fly with an unstoppable acrobatic shot against the Boston Breakers in June. At the time De Vanna said she was just as surprised to score that goal as those who witnessed it. "I was a bit overwhelmed and shocked from it," De Vanna told US media. I didn't even realise it went in. I just saw Danesha [Adam]'s face and she was so surprised and I just looked up and seen it went in the back of the net and I was just thinking, "oh my god I've just pulled something incredible." The goal was her first of two in Sky Blue FC's 5-1 win. Lisa De Vanna's strike has been nominated in FIFA's goal of the year awards.
