Ozilai at a Glance
Ozilai is a single-purpose tool that puts one photo into a fixed 13-second reenactment of the most famous lob of Mesut Ozil's career — the November 2016 chip over the goalkeeper in Bulgaria. The scene, the camera move and the timing already exist; the only thing that changes is who is in them.

What Is the Ozil AI Goal Video?
On 1 November 2016, in a Champions League group game in Sofia, Mesut Ozil scored one of the most replayed goals of his career. He ran onto a long pass, saw the goalkeeper rush off his line, and lifted the ball over him with the outside of his boot. Two defenders threw themselves in front of the loose ball. Ozil stepped past both of them and rolled it into an empty net.
In October 2026 that clip became the template for a wave of AI recasts: people replace the scorer with their own photo, their friend, their pet or a cartoon character. This site exists for exactly that one move. You bring one photo, the scene and the motion are preset.

How to Make an Ozil AI Goal Video
Three steps, no editing.
Upload one photo
A sharp, well-lit photo facing the camera works best. The face should fill a good part of the frame — sunglasses, heavy filters and tiny faces all hurt the result.
Pick 480p or 720p
480p costs 442 credits, 720p costs 988. Both return the same 13-second vertical clip; 720p is the one to post on a proper feed.
Download and add the sound
You get a silent 13-second MP4. Post it to TikTok or Reels and attach the trending sound there — the file itself never contains music.
Who Can Star in the Recast?
Yourself
Your face on the player who chips the keeper. One clear photo is enough — no video, no editing, no second shot.
A friend
Cast a friend as the scorer and send it to the group chat. Ask them first — only upload photos of people who agreed.
Your team's group chat
Post it after a five-a-side win, or hand it to the friend who always claims he could have gone pro.
Your pet
Pets can be submitted as the photo, but results vary a lot: the same fixed motion means an animal body has to follow a footballer's run. Try it, but expect a few odd frames.

Ozil AI Goal Video FAQ
No. Ozilai has no free credits and no trial run — every video is paid from a credit pack. The smallest pack is $5 (500 credits), which covers one 480p clip with credits left over. If you only want to see the result first, watch the examples section: those clips were made with the same preset motion.
