Arsenal: Top 10 Champions League Moments

6. Aaron Ramsey’s Stunning Volley vs Galatasaray
Some say it still needs explaining, and I can concur with that.
It is truly a mystery as to how Aaron Ramsey scored that goal against Galatasaray in the group stage of Arsenal’s 2013-2014 Champions League campaign. A headed clearance from one of Galatasaray’s defenders saw the ball bounce back to Ramsey, who hit the ball on the half volley from some 30-yards out. Have another look:
As a viewer you had realized the absurdity of the goal just by looking at the faces of his teammates, who had looks of admiration and disbelief on their faces due to what they had just seen.
Ramsey’s wonder strike propelled Arsenal to a 4-1 victory over the Turkish side, and thus helping them qualify for a 16th straight round of 16 berth. The strike was also named goal of the year. It definitely deserves a place on this list.
