The Spanish League is almost over and with the home stretch underway, it seems like an appropriate time to take a look at some of the best goals scored in La Liga.

Here are the top 10 goals of the 2015-16 season, so far.

10. Luis Suarez vs. Celta Vigo

Not an aesthetically pleasing goal but surely a creative one with Messi deciding to pass his penalty and Suarez ultimately finishing it. It is cheeky at best and insulting at worst, but there is no doubt that it is a creative goal.

9. Zakaria Bakkali vs. Levante

A gorgeous goal featuring a cross from one side of the pitch, a calm control, a cut-in and then a blistering shot from long range into the far post. Pure class.

8. Santi Mina vs. Barcelona

The finish itself is not particularly eye-catching, but the goal itself comes after Valencia out-Barcelona'd Barcelona. After 20 or so passes around the Blaugrana half in the Camp Nou, Santi Mina gets the perfect pass to slot home and give his team a shocking 2-0 lead and eventually a 2-1 win.

7. Lionel Messi vs. Espanyol

A free kick goal from Messi that has absolutely perfect placement. Watch below as he fires it over the wall and gets it to dip just under the crossbar where it ricochet's right into the net. See it about a minute into the following video.

6. Nolito vs. Real Madrid

Nolito started off the 2015-16 season on fire, but has since cooled down quite a bit. Nonetheless, when the season started he was a man possessed scoring goals out of nothing. Just watch how he cuts inside on the Madrid defense and then rifles one into the top near corner in an impossible spot for Keylor Navas.

5. James Rodriguez vs. Real Betis

The Colombian has fallen a bit out of favor with Real Madrid this season, but when given the chance he has produced some golden moments, including this goal. A free kick from a sharp angle that seemed primed to set up a header. Yet Rodriguez fires it off the far post and into the net for one of the best goals of the year.

4. Neymar vs. Atletico Madrid

Atletico Madrid had a 1-0 lead early in the second half. This game, in retrospect, could have likely put Barcelona out of the lead of the Spanish League had the score stood.

But there was Neymar, standing over a free kick with a wall staring back at him. The environment at the Vicente Calderon was tempestuous with the raucous fans pushing their Madrid side on. But moments later, Neymar silenced them with a free kick goal of utter perfection, the ball looping over the wall and then dipping right into the near post to tie the game and kill Atleti's momentum.

3. Antoine Griezmann vs. Real Sociedad

This season has been the Frenchman's breakout year with the superstar scoring at will. This particular goal has him take the ball at the center circle and race through a handful of Real Sociedad defenders before finishing with a cool chip over an oncoming keeper. Stylish, slick and glorious to behold.

2. Neymar vs. Villarreal

The ultimate definition of flash, this might be the most aesthetically pleasing goal on the list. Neymar takes the cross, chips it over the defender behind him and then proceeds to volley it in. Has there been a more pleasant goal to experience all season? Nope. But it is not the most important goal of the year.


1. Cristiano Ronaldo vs. Barcelona

The season's final script has not been written yet, but if Madrid winds up winning La Liga, this goal might simply be the one that sparked the comeback. Down to 10 men and in a 1-1 draw in Barcelona, Los Blancos' counter attack produced a gorgeous goal that was finished off by the man of the hour: Cristiano Ronaldo.

Watch how Ronaldo, with minimal real estate, takes the cross from Bale, sidesteps one oncoming defender and then slots in calmly from a sharp angle. A HUGE goal for Real Madrid and the best of this season's La Liga.
