To score Özil's Ludogorets goal with your face, open the [Mesut Ozil — Ludogorets Wonder Goal trend on vswp](/trend/mesut-ozil-ludogorets-wonder-goal/), add one photo to the goal-scorer's card and start. The 15-second vertical clip is the original slow-motion footage of the 2016 goal with the scorer already found: you take his place, while the goalkeeper, the defenders, the camera and the sound stay. You can try a free preview first, and the MP4 is usually ready in minutes.

## What happens in Özil's Ludogorets goal?

On November 1, 2016, Arsenal played Ludogorets Razgrad in the Champions League group stage in Sofia. Late in the game, at 2–2, Mesut Özil ran onto a pass from Mohamed Elneny, goalkeeper Milan Borjan rushed out of his box, and Özil lifted the ball over him. Then he waited while two defenders threw themselves at the ball, went past them and slid it into the empty net for a 3–2 win.

The clip on [vswp](/) shows the whole move in one continuous slow-motion shot from pitch level. Its sound comes from a meme version of the goal, and your video keeps that sound.

## Who should score it?

- **You**, finally scoring the goal you always describe after five-a-side.
- **The friend who still talks about one goal from school.** Now there is footage.
- **The teammate who missed an open goal last weekend.** In this clip, they can't miss.

Ask first, whoever it is. Only the scorer changes, so a friend can't play the keeper here; for several friends in one video, pick a group clip from the [trends list](/trend/).

## How do you make it on vswp?

1. **Open the trend.** Go to the [Mesut Ozil — Ludogorets Wonder Goal page](/trend/mesut-ozil-ludogorets-wonder-goal/).
2. **Sign in with Telegram.** No password needed.
3. **Add the photo to the scorer's card**: a JPEG, PNG or WebP of you, or of a friend who agreed.
4. **Choose the kit** with "Keep the original look" (see the table below).
5. **Make the free preview**: about 5 seconds at 480p with a small "vswp.app" mark, one per new user.
6. **Create the full video.** Pick 480p or 720p and check the price in Telegram Stars, shown before you start: it depends on length, quality and the number of people. If the render fails or you cancel it, the Stars come back automatically.
7. **Download or share** the vertical MP4 with the clip's sound.

## Arsenal kit or your own shirt?

One switch decides whether the scorer keeps Arsenal's dark navy and neon-yellow kit:

| | "Keep the original look" on | "Keep the original look" off |
|---|---|---|
| Clothes | The Arsenal kit stays | Come from your photo |
| Face and hair | From your photo | From your photo |
| Best photo | A sharp, well-lit portrait | A full-body photo in the shirt you want |

To score in your own club's shirt, turn it off and use a full-body photo of you in it. Small details can change, so check the preview first. More on the difference: [swap only the face or the whole person](/guides/face-only-or-whole-person/).

## Which photo works best for this shot?

- **Full length, one person.** The scorer is never in close-up and his face is small in the frame, so your build and hair carry the likeness along with the face.
- **A clear face.** He looks up at the dropping ball for a few seconds, so use a front-facing photo without a cap or sunglasses.
- **Even light.** The floodlit night stays as in the clip; a sharp daylight photo beats a dark, grainy one.

## What can go wrong, and how do you fix it?

- **The ball close to the body.** Between about 2 and 6 seconds the ball drops right in front of him. If it or his arms look smeared, make another take.
- **The sliding tackle.** At about 9 to 11 seconds a defender slides in at his legs. Crossing legs are hard for AI; another take usually helps.
- **The face doesn't look like you.** The face is small in the frame, so the likeness needs clear features: try a sharper, brighter front-facing photo, or see [what to do if the face doesn't look like you](/guides/ai-face-swap-does-not-look-like-you/).

Every new take is a new render, with its price shown first.

## Where can you post the vertical clip?

The result keeps the clip's shape: a vertical 15-second MP4 at 480p or 720p, ready for TikTok, Reels and Shorts. By starting a video you confirm you have the right to use the video and the photos. When you post, say it's an AI edit of a real match: rules differ by country, and in the EU the AI Act's disclosure rule for deepfakes applies from August 2026. This is not legal advice.
