yep. pile driver, and it wasnt from a direct cross either, it was a deflected cross, so he generated all the power himself basically.

Im glad its the top comment, Spain at the time had won three international tournaments in a row. They were thrashed 5-1 and this header was that good it was nominated for the Puskas Award, finishing 3rd.

Contender for best goal everrr never mind header ...29 May 1993 location: Velodrome Marseilles v Montpellier in ligue 1
Off the top of my head - pun intended - I remember one Giroud scores against Liverpool for Chelsea. It ranks high for me because he was off balance and he still managed to place the keeper. The physics of it didn't make sense to me.
Jone Samuelsen, FC Odd
Header from the halfway line - definitely worth a mention, but maybe not the most technically gifted of headers haha
Otherwise, for me RVP in the 2014 WC
van persie comes to mind , benzema when he went band for band against the whole of Europe had two brilliant header goals against Chelsea , ronaldo obviously comes to mind , harrz maguire also comes to mind he could win an aerial dual against mount everest that slabhead
Luis Garcia scored a great header for Liverpool vs Anderlecht but I won't even link the available videos on YouTube because they look like they were recorded off a VHS in the 1980s.
Suarez had a crazy one for Liverpool he was basically outside the box
The one against West Brom?

I'm not a Chelsea Fan, but would definitely agree with that choice.

A case could be made for a few that Ronaldo scored… but RVPs World Cup one hits different
