Luis Diaz Scores Goal of The Season Contender for Bayern Munich

Luis Diaz scored a sensational goal in Bayern Munich's draw against Union Berlin.

Luis Diaz produced a moment of magic as he scored an outrageous solo goal against Union Berlin.

Bayern's perfect league start came to an end on Saturday as they were held to a 2-2 draw against Union on Saturday.

Danilho Doekhi opened the scoring in the 27th minute before former Liverpool star Diaz levelled in remarkable fashion.

The Colombian fetched a loose ball outside of the box before playing a one-two with Josip Stanisic, who appeared to overhit his pass.

But Diaz slid to brilliantly keep the ball in play, then poked it past his marker before curling home a sensational goal from an incredibly tight angle.

His goal stunned his teammates, including Harry Kane and Stanisic who had his hands on his head in disbelief.


Needless to say, the winger's strike sent social media wild as fans online hailed it as a goal of the season contender.

One X user wrote: "Luis Diaz is not real!! WOW that's an absolutely unreal goal from nothing at all!"

A second said: "How do you score from this angle I‘m crying Luis Diaz is not normal."

A third added: "Liverpool fans took Luis Díaz for granted. World class. Always has been."

Another commented: "What a goal by Luis Diaz! This has to be goal of the season."

Doekhi restored his side's lead seven minutes from time.

However, Bayern equalised for a second time when Kane headed home to score his 13th league goal of the season.

Diaz is also enjoying a prolific campaign following his summer switch, having scored 11 goals in 17 games across all competitions, including six league goals.

Despite dropping points, Bayern are still top of the league, six points clear of RB Leipzig.

They resume their campaign after the international break with a home league fixture against Freiburg on November 22.
