Marcus Rashford – MD1 – Newcastle v Barcelona
As Barcelona faced Newcastle United at a roaring St James’ Park, there was only one man who took the headlines when Hansi Flick’s men defeated The Magpies 2-1.
Marcus Rashford, on loan from Manchester United, scored the Catalan giants’ first goal with a header from a Jules Kounde cross and he then added a second within 10 minutes.

Receiving the ball a long way out, Rashford decided to hit it on the turn, beating Nick Pope with ease as the ball cannoned off the crossbar and into the back of the net.
Aleix Garcia – MD3 – PSG v Bayer Leverkusen
Another sublime long-range strike came from Bayer Leverkusen midfielder Aleix Garcia in their 7-2 demolition by Paris Saint-Germain.
Having already scored from the penalty spot in the first half, Garcia struck from outside the box in an effort that stayed hit and was always destined for the top-right corner.

Celebrations were somewhat muted, with PSG already leading 5-1 at the time of the goal, but it did give Leverkusen fans something to cheer about.
Micky van de Ven – MD4 – Spurs v Copenhagen
There are very few positive things to remember this season for Tottenham Hotspur fans, but one of them was undoubtedly Micky van de Ven’s incredible solo effort against Copenhagen.
Leading 2-0, Van de Ven gathered the ball deep in his own half, before dribbling past four defenders and coolly slotting the ball past a helpless Dominik Kotarski in the Copenhagen goal.

Spurs went on to win the match 4-0, with a second goal in the 90th minute coming through Joao Palhinha.
Lamine Yamal – MD4 – Club Brugge v Barcelona
Another effort that was more about panache and skill than outright power was Lamine Yamal’s sensational goal against Club Brugge.
In one of the matches of the tournament, the Belgian side led Barcelona 2-1 at the hour mark, before Yamal combined with fellow Spaniard Fermin Lopez, dribbling past two defenders, before Lopez laid it off to him.

Then Yamal's one touch took the ball away from two more defenders, and he was able to slide it into the far-left corner.
In the end, the match finished in a 3-3 draw, but Yamal’s goal was a thing of beauty.
Noni Madueke – MD6 – Club Brugge v Arsenal
Club Brugge were again on the receiving end of another special goal just two matchdays later, this time coming through Arsenal winger Noni Madueke.
He held off a defender just inside the Brugge half, before getting to about 30 yards away and opting to hit it.

The end result was an unstoppable strike into the top-right corner, as Arsenal walked away with a 3-0 triumph.
Jens Petter Hauge – MD7 – Bodo/Glimt v Man City
Everyone became Bodo/Glimt fans when they managed to piece together a run of form to make the knockout phase, and the goal from Jens Petter Hauge was a huge part of that run.
The 26-year-old Norwegian sealed the deal for Bodo against Manchester City with a mesmerising curling effort into the top-right corner.

Federico Valverde – Round of 16 – Real Madrid v Manchester City
Another team to appear as victims twice are Manchester City, and they felt the wrath of Federico Valverde in Madrid.
Having already scored twice in the first half to give Los Blancos a 2-0 lead, Valverde added a third shortly before half time.

Another spectacular Arsenal goal came from Eberechi Eze against Bayer Leverkusen in the round-of-16 clash.
The England midfielder took the ball on the turn, before deciding to shoot from long range on the spin and half-volley, and seeing the ball powerfully hit the back of the net.

Arsenal went on to win the match 2-1, and the tie 3-1, on their way to the Champions League final.
Harry Kane – Round of 16 – Bayern Munich v Atalanta
Last, but by no means least, we have Harry Kane, the Bayern Munich forward who simply can’t stay away from the goals.
Having won 6-1 away from home, Bayern could have relaxed in the second leg, but that was not on Vincent Kompany’s or Kane’s mind.
