But Toni Kroos has a strong claim for one of the most emphatic in Germany's smash-and-grab win over Sweden during the 2018 World Cup group stage.

The reigning world champions looked set for an ignominious early exit after losing their opening encounter to Mexico before facing Janne Andersson's side in Sochi.

Things looked ominous at the Fisht Stadium as Die Mannschaft were being held to a 1-1 draw which would leave the fate of their Group F campaign out of their hands.

A free kick from an acute angle represented one last throw of the dice with the five minutes' added time all but up after Jimmy Durmaz brought down Timo Werner.

What followed became the stuff of legend.

Unfortunately for Kroos, his heroics could not prevent Joachim Löw's side from crashing out of the tournament as they lost their next game to South Korea.

But the Real Madrid man's spectacular effort still earned a place in World Cup history.
