The winner of Goal of the Year was none other than Scotland and Napoli talisman Scott McTominay, for his bicycle-kick against Denmark.
The match is already an iconic one in Scottish folklore, with the 4-2 victory clinching the Tartan Army's qualification for the 2026 World Cup.
McTominay's goal arrived in the early stages of the contest against the Danes, with Ben Gannon Doak picking up the ball near the opposition's penalty area after some aggressive pressing.
The Bournemouth winger shifted with the ball, waiting for an opportunity to cross into the box, as his teammates looked for an opening.
Gannon Doak whipped in the ball on his favoured left foot, which was connected with sweetly in an acrobatic fashion by McTominay.
The strike was just out of reach of Celtic's Kasper Schmeichel as the ball nestled into the far side to give Scotland an early lead over Denmark in a crucial clash.
Skip to 16 seconds for the goal

A goal by Lawrence Shankland would put the Scots back in front in the 78th minute, but the lead wouldn't last long.

In the 93rd minute, Kieran Tierney found the back of the net with an uncharacteristic rocket after cutting in from the right side. Scenes.

Scotland 4-2 Denmark was an exhilarating match with several high-quality goals, but McTominay's audacious effort takes our 2025 Goal of the Year award.
