VIDEO: Luis Diaz scores goal of the season contender from impossible angle that leaves Bayern Munich team-mate absolutely stunned

Luis Diaz scored a stunning goal for Bayern Munich in their Bundesliga match against Union Berlin on Saturday, which is being considered a contender for goal of the season. Bayern aimed to continue their winning streak after a midweek Champions League victory over PSG, and Diaz, who joined from Liverpool in the summer, netted a sublime first-half strike for Vincent Kompany's team.

Diaz had a week of mixed emotions, having scored a brace against PSG but being sent off in that match due to a dangerous challenge on Achraf Hakimi after a VAR review. Despite this, he started the game against Union Berlin as Bayern sought their tenth consecutive win to start the Bundesliga season. However, Bayern fell behind in the first half when Danilho Doekhi scored his third league goal of the season, but Diaz equalized shortly before halftime by scoring from an impossible angle past goalkeeper Frederik Rønnow.

The goal marked Diaz's sixth in the Bundesliga this season, and his teammate Josip Stanisic, who provided the assist, reacted with shock and celebration, highlighting the quality of the finish. Diaz managed to keep a poor pass from Stanisic in play, dribbled past Janik Haberer, and found the far corner from a very tight angle.

Since joining Bayern Munich, Diaz has made a significant impact, not only with his goals but also by providing four assists, all for Harry Kane, showcasing a strong partnership. He previously scored the winning goal in the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup victory over VfB Stuttgart in August. Bayern are favorites to win the Bundesliga and are performing well in the Champions League, having won all four group stage matches against teams like Chelsea and PSG.

However, Diaz will miss Bayern's next Champions League match against Arsenal due to suspension from his red card against PSG. Arsenal, like Bayern, have won all their Champions League games and lead the Premier League, making it a tough challenge for Bayern in the upcoming fixture after the international break.
