Video - Throwback to a spectacular Zlatan solo goal for Ajax

Zlatan has described this goal in his Autobiography, “I am Zlatan”

“I had a defender on my back and we were pushing and pulling each other, and I came loose, and I dribbled past another guy. That was the start. That was the intro,” he says.

“I continued with a fake shot, and got closer to the box, and did another trick, I was trying to find an opening for a shot. But new defenders kept coming at me.

“There were many around me and maybe I should have passed the ball, but I didn’t see an opening for that either.

“Instead I pushed through in a fast dribbling slalom, fooled the goalie too and put the ball in open goal with my left foot.

“It was an instant classic. It was a dribbling through the entire team, and the stadium exploded.

“Everyone went crazy. Even Koeman was jumping around like crazy, no matter how much I wanted to leave him. It was like all the hatred against me turned around, into love and triumph.”
