Kerim Alajbegović’s Goal Ranked Second‑Best at World Cup 2026

Bosnia and Herzegovina forward Kerim Alajbegović scored the winning goal against Qatar in the group stage of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, securing a 3‑1 victory. His strike was later selected by Fox Sports’ “World Cup Live” panel as the second most beautiful goal of the tournament, trailing only Sidny Lopes Cabral’s effort for the Green Islands against Argentina. The ranking highlighted Alajbegović’s skillful dribble past the Qatari defence and precise right‑footed finish, marking a memorable moment for the Bosnian team’s sole group‑phase win.

The World Cup’s top‑ten goal list also featured notable entries from Lionel Messi, Giovanni Reyna, Erling Haaland, Kylian Mbappé and others, underscoring the tournament’s high‑scoring excitement.
