In the northern derby against Werder Bremen, Luka Vuskovic created THE moment of HSV’s season so far. The 18-year-old is now receiving a special honor for his dream goal.
As the Bundesliga announced early Monday evening, Vuskovic has won the vote for “Top Goal of the Year 2025” with his strike. The central defender won the fan voting, leaving other promising candidates like Martin Terrier from Bayer 04 Leverkusen behind.
On December 7, HSV won the first Bundesliga northern derby in over seven years in a dramatic match, 3-2. Vuskovic played a huge part in that. In the 75th minute, he artistically converted a free kick cross from midfield maestro Fabio Vieira with a scorpion kick to make it 2-1 for the time being—the Volksparkstadion went absolutely wild!

Speaking about his backheel masterpiece in the subsequent TV interview, Vuskovic revealed: “Maybe it’s because I play Teqball with Rambo (Nicolai Remberg). That’s a great goal. I’m very happy I could help the team.”
His aforementioned teammate reacted much more euphorically. “I was standing right behind him and couldn’t even celebrate because I was thinking, ‘what is this guy doing?’” Remberg raved. His clear verdict: “I always say, he was bred in a lab.”
Since many Bundesliga fans apparently share this thought, Vuskovic can now look forward to a very special honor. He needed just 13 matches and 1,170 minutes of playing time to score the Top Goal of the Year 2025. Once again, the highly talented teenager has made a huge impression!
