And his amazing strike was crowned the best of the bunch against competition from Richarlison and Dimitri Payet.

Oleksy lined himself up perfectly against Stal Rzeszow when a sublime cross was played into him.

Using his crutches for balance, the Polish ace incredibly lifted his body off the ground before firing in a gorgeous overhead effort.

Fans were thrilled with the effort, with one saying: “Well deserved. What a goal!”

Another declared: “Stunning strike.”

One added: “Even the assist was incredible.”

Second place in the Puskas hunt went to ex-West Ham star Payet.

The Frenchman belted in a blaster from distance in Marseille’s Europa Conference League clash with PAOK Thessaloniki last season.

And third place went to Tottenham’s Richarlison, who netted a beautiful bicycle kick with Brazil at the World Cup.

Oleksy became an amputee football star after losing his leg in 2010 in a work accident.

And speaking after his nomination, the ace told Fifa he was over the moon with his world-class goal.

Oleksy said: “My teammate Dawid Novak played the pass. When I saw the ball coming, I knew I’d be the first to it.

“I connected really cleanly, it was perfect. When I hit it, I watched the ball all the way and saw it go into the corner of the net.

“I’d always wanted to score a beautiful goal. You could see the pride on my face after I scored.

“I stood up tall, I stuck my chest out. I was just so happy.”
