To accompany Hazard's goal, from the world of Eurovision we have Belgian six-piece Ishtar's 2008 upbeat little folksy number O Julissi.

It includes the lyrics:

O julissi na jalini

O julissi na ditini

O bulo diti non slukati

Sestrone dina katsu

I'd love to be able to translate these into English for you, but as the song is sung entirely in an elven-esque made-up language I can only guess what they're on about. But it seems pretty chirpy and the singer does a fine job of recreating Hazard's goal in her performance by weaving past the guitarist, selling the cello player one hell of a dummy and then jinking between her woodwind-playing backing duo.

Sadly, the song only made it as far as the semi-finals in 2008. In hindsight, it was a real tactical error on Ishtar's part to appeal to the wood nymph demographic.

Our first finalist.

It's your classic Eden Hazard goal. The man who used to light up Stamford Bridge, and is now strutting his stuff at the Bernabeu, picks up the ball wide left before cutting inside. Hungary don't know it yet but they're already done for. Hazard's little jink between two defenders removes the last real obstacle and from there it is a perfect side-foot finish into the net.

To celebrate? Why a perfectly executed knee slide of course.

The goal was the third of four Belgium would score to brush aside the Hungarians in a last 16 tie in Toulouse at Euro 2016.

The win set up a quarter-final encounter with Wales, which didn't go so well for them.

Spain have jointly won the most Euros with three. Spain have also jointly scored the lowest ever Eurovision score with zero. Barca have been involved in both.

In 1983 they chose to enter Eurovision with “Quién maneja mi barca?” – which translates as “Who sales my boat?” - nothing to do with the Catalan club.

For a brief time at the end of the 70s and start of the 80s Flamenco Rock was a thing in Spain. The studio version of this track had drum machines, synthesizers and vocoders.

The live version at Eurovision substituted them with oboes and bassoons. It was the worst swap Spain would see until Barcelona attempted to replace Maradona by signing Steve Archibald.

Remedios Amaya’s wailing vocal asked “ Your mother’s braids, come on, tell me who braids them”. Lyrical tiki-taka this was not.

Israel

Now we're talking.

As far as I'm concerned, every Eurovision entry would be improved by the performer doing a chicken impression in front of row upon row of waving golden cats.

Styled up like Street Fighter's Chun-Li controlling the Starship Enterprise, Netta has some pipes on her and belts Toy out with plenty of joyous energy while her backing dancers are but a mistimed lunge away from accidentally assaulting her on stage.

This not only won in 2018, it did so by almost 100 points. Chicken impressions people, chicken impressions.

Israel

"Whoa!" cries the co-commentator on our clip as Zahavi's effort hits the back of the net. Yep, that about covers it.

It's a belter of a goal, starting with a neat little turn to twists an opposition defender inside out and ending with a rifled shot that smashes against the inside of the post before going in.

The fact it was one of three goals Zahavi scored in a surprise 4-2 Euro 2020 qualifying win only makes it the sweeter.

Sadly, though, for Zahavi, he's fallen just one place short of the final.

Serbia

We're back in serious territory for this one. So no pyrotechnics, no showy costumes, no dancers doing bonkers stuff on stage. Just a singer and some earnest colleagues, digging deep to show you how very important this all is.

And to be fair, it kind of is for Serbia as this is their first performance at Eurovision since becoming an independent nation. Its victory in the 2007 contest has only added to its significance, seeing it used regularly as a backing track to symbolise Serbian pride.

Sadly, once it occurred to me that it sounds a bit like that Celine Dion song from Titanic I couldn't get that out of my head and now I want to stick a sharpened pencil in my ear to try and make it stop.

Serbia

You probably have an idea of the typical Mitrovic goal in your head - scored from close range, possibly a header. This is not that.

The striker picks up the ball, carries it to within about 30 yards of goal and then unleashes a dipping shot that finds its way into the top corner as part of a 3-2 Euro 2020 qualifying win.

What's Serbian for "pick that one out?"

Norway

If you'll excuse the pun, Alexander Rybak is clearly keen to show that he has more than one string to his bow in his folksy ballad Fairytale. You see, this Norwegian Jonas brother is not just a singer, he's a fiddler too, and he's pretty good at both.

However, concentrating on this proves impossible. This is partly due to the fact they've decided to throw three braces-sporting buffoons onto the stage with him to perform some sort of interpretive tumble act. But also, fatally, and through no fault of his own, the strings of Rybak's violin bow take it upon themselves to come loose one by one leaving you terrified that he'll have to try and fill in the fiddle bits using his voice like Jones from Police Academy or worse, accidentally garrotte one of his three pals.

Thankfully, neither happened and Rybak and team went on to win the competition in 2009.

Norway

Oh Iver Fossum, you cheeky little scamp. While many of the goals on our list are flat-out thunderblasters, it is nice to know there is still a place for a subtle threading of the needle.

It only takes the most delicate of flicked touches with the instep from Fossum to send the ball into the net from Joshua King's low cross, but that doesn't make it any less tough to pull off.

This was second of four goals Norway scored at home against the Faroe Islands in 2020 qualifying.

Norway

Spain

Say what you want about Ruth Lorenzo, but she doesn't half love a singing competition. X-Factor fans will remember well her 2008 appearance on the show when she controversially eliminated Laura White via a sing-off before getting the boot in the quarter-finals. Those with a life won't.

There is a theme to Lorenzo's career - she seems to love water falling from the sky. Her most famous X-Factor appearance was a rendition of Prince's Purple Rain, and here she is "dancing" in it. She's woefully ill-prepared for the inclement weather, though, wearing only a ball gown in what is a proper downpour. Hopefully, there was someone waiting off stage with one of those tinfoil blankets they hand out to broken marathon runners.

A pretty decent 10th-place finish will have taken the edge of the pneumonia.

Spain

A goal owing as much to a delightful pass as an equally glorious finish.

Marco Asensio's ball splits the Faroe's defence wide open, finding Gaya, whose dinked finish with the outside of his boot sends the ball spinning past the keeper and in.

It was the fourth goal in a comfortable 4-1 win for Spain, who top 2020 qualifying Group F.

United Kingdom

Once you acclimatise to the 1970s fashion stylings, including an oval backdrop that any second threatens to dissolve into a screen displaying the leader of an alien race who have come to conquer earth, there's one overriding aspect that lingers - everything feels so still.

Clodagh bops away a bit centre stage, clearly enjoying herself, but apart from a half-hearted mini can-can towards the end her feet are firmly planted like she's about to parry a 30-yarder. Her backing singers are worse, sticking firmly to a repetitive knee pivot.

For a pretty catchy song centered around a jack in a box it borders on criminal, although it went down just fine with the judges, earning a fourth-place finish. Stay right until the end of the video for cameos from 007s Daniel Craig from Roger Moore in the crowd.

United Kingdom

Some goals are aesthetically beautiful in isolation, but some are glorious as a result of their significance. McAuley's header, planted across and past the Ukraine keeper following Oliver Norwood's free-kick is primarily the latter.

It helped Northern Ireland to their first win at a European Championship finals and set up their qualification to the last 16, where they would exit the tournament.

The memory of McAuley's header will last a long time for their fans, though.

United Kingdom

Austria

Even if you don't watch Eurovision, you will probably be aware of Conchita Wurst. The Austrian singer and drag queen was the breakout star of the 2014 competition, establishing her as a gay and transgender icon.

Even in a competition with such a rich history of going against what people perceive as the norm the pristine image of a bearded and ballgown wearing Conchita is striking when the lights go up.

The song itself leans fully into Shirley Bassey bombastic, Bond-theme territory, but without the naked women swinging on guns, and swept Wurst to the win. "It was not just a victory for me but a victory for those people who believe in a future that can function without discrimination and is based on tolerance and respect," she said afterwards. And people think Eurovision is just rock zombies and ice skating interpretive dance.
