The 11 nominees are led by the Portuguese's stunning effort for Real Madrid against Juventus, with no room for an effort in the Champions League final.

Cristiano Ronaldo is among the nominees for the UEFA Goal of the Season prize.
The Portugal superstar is one of 11 candidates in the running for the award following his stunning overhead kick for Real Madrid against his new club Juventus in last season's Champions League.
Only one goal from each UEFA competition is nominated, so Ronaldo has been selected ahead former team-mate Gareth Bale, who scored a similarly acrobatic effort in Madrid's Champions League final defeat of Liverpool.
Dimitri Payet provides the Europa League nomination, the France international producing a brilliant dribble and finish in Marseille's win against RB Leipzig.
Ronaldo's compatriots Goncalo Ramos, Paulo Estrela and Ricardinho are also on the shortlist, along with Denmark playmaker Christian Eriksen.
Supporters can watch all the goals and vote for their favourite on the UEFA website. The award was won by Mario Mandzukic last year, while Lionel Messi claimed the honour in both 2015 and 2016.
UEFA Goal of the Season nominees in full:
Lucy Bronze (Lyon 1-0 Manchester City)

who else agrees that bale's technically was better and more acrobatic. maybe it's because the uefa and the fifa love ronaldo so much and take any chance to get him in the spotlight...

UEFA announces goal of the season where ronaldo leads but bale isn't even included. Bale goal was against Liverpool that too in final, uefa must have included that goal. Ronaldo was a player to get standing ovation from entire madrid as well as juve audience so keeping ronaldo is fair enough. Now uefa best goal ,uefa best player Another questionable decision made by uefa why is messi eve on top 3 list on best forward where is mane and Farminho who have more assist and more goals and more contribution than Messi

How can UEFA say Bale's goal is not nominated I mean this is just corruption, I'll be honest am a Ronaldo fan but Bale's goal was technically more acrobatic and on top of that it was in a final and it's the one that decided the match and what I fail to understand is that why is it not nominated

And bale was snubbed. I guess Bale is still under ronaldo's shadow cause he'll say he'd have won this if not for Ronaldo.
