Yes, I'd like to see videos dispalyed.

In front of a full house at the BayArena, substitute Sardar Azmoun fed the ball to Florian Wirtz and his shot from 20 yards out flew into the bottom right corner of the USG net. The Werkself number 27 has now been involved in five goals (three goals, two assists) in five appearances in the Europa League this term. You can catch up on the goal and other highlights from the clash against the Belgians in the video.

Other candidates were Victor Boniface, who scored the opener for Union Saint-Gilloise, Mats Wieffer (Feyenoord) and Marcel Sabitzer (Manchester United).
