The winner of UEFA award for the best goal of 2016/2017 season, Mario Mandžukić is nominated for the FIFA Ferenc Puskas Award, to be presented at the The Best award ceremony in October. 

In Champions League final in Cardiff, Croatia and Juventus striker Mandžukić has scored with a brilliant strike against Real Madrid to equalize (1:1), even though Modrić and Kovačić managed to defend the Real Madrid's title (4:1).
