Gonzalo Higuain got on the end of it, taking a touch on his chest before volleying it to his Croatian teammate.

Mandzukic chested the ball up, before hooking it over his shoulder and over Keylor Navas in the Madrid goal.

Today UEFA has voted it the best goal of the 2016-17 season, beating Casemiro’s volley against Napoli, among others.
