'Give him the Ballon d'Or' - Ighalo tipped to win top prize after stunner against LASK

Odion Ighalo is being tipped to win the Ballon d'Or after his stunning goal for Manchester United against LASK on Thursday.

The Nigeria international put his side in the lead of the Europa League round of 16 clash with an impressive strike as he received a Bruno Fernandes pass on and juggled it on the edge of the box before lashing into the top corner.

The goal gave United the lead in the first leg clash and his fourth goal for the club since joining on loan from Shanghai Shenhua in January.
