FIFA Marta Award for the Goal of the Year
The Marta Award is an annual football award presented by FIFA for the female player judged to have scored the most aesthetically significant, or "most beautiful", goal of the year.
The award is named in honour of Marta, the captain of the Brazil women's national team from 2002 until 2024. It was first awarded in 2024.
There is several main criteria for this award. Primarily it is given regardless of nationality, ethnicity, or religion. Also, the goal shouldn't be a product of luck, such as a deflection off a defender. Of course, it must also be captured on film.
Prior to 2024, there was the FIFA Puskás Award for the Goal of the Year, in which both male and female players were eligible.
