Who says he doesn’t perform in big games?
Who else has this touch with their back heel, in the el Classico?
3 words: on a plate.
When you silence the Liverpool fans, you’ve done something outstanding.
The skill and touch needed to pull this off is beyond impressive.
The fact the goalscorer isn’t even in the shot when Özil strikes the ball, speaks volumes about his weight and direction of pass.
For me, his best ever goal. The only players that could pull this off are Messi and Özil.
The pass that won Real Madrid the league. My favourite ever Mesut Özil assist. https://twitter.com/MadridistaHaven/status/785219316627214338/video/1
‘Mesut could find space in the busiest place in the world’.
Nothing describes Mesut Özil quite like this touch. https://twitter.com/VerdiFC/status/1036889627574054912/video/1
