Ozil's goal 'pure football orgasm' - Cantona

The former France striker lavished praise on the Germany international midfielder's Champions League wonder-goal in midweek

Manchester United legend Eric Cantona has revealed that Mesut Ozil's goal in Arsenal's 3-2 win at Ludogorets "sent shivers down his spine", describing it as "pure footbal orgasm".

Ozil's 89th-minute goal on Tuesday sealed Arsenal's comeback from two goals down in Sofia and secured its passage to the Champions League knockout phase.

Mohamed Elneny sent the German clean through, and the 28-year-old dinked the ball over the goalkeeper before calmly gliding past two defenders and finishing into an open net.
