Unbelievable player. He was 36 years old at the 2014 World Cup and was sitting on the bench in the first games (scoring that important 2:2 equalizer against Ghana as a sub). After the Algeria game, where Germany won luckily against a really strong team, Löw changed the lineup and Klose became a starter. He did "only" score one more goal (record 16. World Cup goal against Brazil), but with his intelligence, quality movement and unselfish play, the team had a much better structure than before. In the end, he started in the final and lifted the World Cup 12! years after losing the final in 2002. Always a classy player and now a World Cup Legend. Thank you, Miro
Absolutely agree. Klose was often a very effective ball snatcher and clinical assister in and around the penalty box. This is why they needed him up front to give themselves that sharpness they were missing early in the tournament. It completely changed from the QF against France.
Whereas my current favourite Striker has 3 penalty goals and 2 close corner goals in World Cup and titled the most undeserving Golden Boot in World Cup History (which is very obvious and I do agree that to much extent)(ofc its Harry Kane)(even as a Chelsea fan , I feel sad for Kane for being a Hostage in Spurs !!)
This dude didn't care if he was gonna get punched in the face or kicked, he was going to put the ball in the net no matter what. You can see the desire, tenacity, and focus when he is attacking the ball. That's why he has the most goals in the WC.
That's right and that's why I think the 12th goal is the best. It describes exactly this will and fighting spirit to score the goal ... 90% of the other players would have already dropped and called for penalties
@@harrismazari5484 Well I would not say average, but he definitely should have at least 400 for the player he was. They key is that Germany has the beast team play style and that is the reason why he always shined with die Mannschaft
Klose, a german football legend. Beating Ronaldos record in 2014, yet the world was like "Klose who?". And this is exactly, why we loved him. No self-obssesion or ego driven manner. Super modest and always working hard for the sport and his team only. This is a type of player your barely find anymore.
2002- 5 goals 2006- 5 goals 2010- 4 goals 2014- 2 goals Consistency at its best never won a golden boot at world cup stage but due to his consistency he became the all time world cup goalscorer absolute legend 🛐
03 goals against Saudi Arabia. Even my grandmother would score those goals. Saudi Arabia was a guest team at the World Cup (It did not compete in the qualifiers, that is, it was the World Cup's punching bag)
At the 02 World Cup, he scored every goal with the head. He didn't score a goal after the group stage but still managed to score the second most goals of the tournament. I loved how he headed the ball in, even though he could've used his feet.

9 of his 16 goals were with his foot though but yes, he is an incredible header. It's almost unbelievable how Germany has never lost when Klosw has scored in a match
Actually he did dive in his debut match for Germany against Albania and got a yellow card for it. Apparently he learned from it haha. By far my favorite player of all time.
2002 germany was underdog yet had some of the most dangarous players,ofc they had no zidane,beckham,figo or ronaldo,but ballack was one of the most offensive midfielders,both him and klose were known for being strong at headers and scoring instinct,and then there was the goalkeeper that just blocked everything until he got injured in the finals,carrying the whole team alone even more than neuer did 2014,the main strengh of germany at that time was development though,every world cup there was a new young talented core,which became the main core at the next world cup and helped develop a new young core which became the next core and that became tradition,until 2018 when the german trainer chose to take the vets who already won the chip instead of the young guys,and got ousted in groupstage...thats also why germany always was at least 3rd place since 2002
@@KRYSTIAN_STANISLAW Klose and Podolski are ethnically Germans. I know who you do mean... *cough* Lewa *cough*... Lewandowski, though, isn't ethnically German, and he was born and raised in Poland, and started playing for Poland since 2008 when he was still playing in Polish clubs (He moved to Germany in 2010).
A lot of people only remember Klose as a clinical finisher, but he was often an incredible passer and effective tackler/ball snatcher in and around the opponent's box. He has had so many great assists that people don't remember.
3:33 Klose, the last survivor of that starting box that lost the 2002 World Cup final against Brazil led by Felipao in that match, scored the goal that would take him down in history in a massacre against Ronaldo who had just lost the record top scorer in the World Cups and could only see from the commentators' box how German got his revenge at the most critical moment for Brazil. At home, with your people, against the coach who won us the cup, against Ronaldo and with a beating that is never forgotten again.
I'm just here to appreciate his goals because after today, Mbappe might have a chance to beat his record in the next WC in 4 goals with lesser games. Even if Messi continue to play in the next WC, Klose beat him by having lesser games. Miroslav Klose is a monster !!
My favorite striker, and one of my favorite player of all time. I've never been a big fan of players like Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo or Neymar who uses a lot of moves to pass like two or three people. They are great players, but I've always prefered efficiency above the rest. Klose, Shevchenko, Lewandowski, just monsters when it comes to bring the danger in the box
What many people outside of Germany don't know is that Klose had a condition which made his legs hurt when he struck the ball hard. He would feel it for days afterwards. So he would rarely strike from outside the box. He spent his whole career perfecting the skills necessary to score close distance goals. Notice how all his goals are from within the box.
I didn’t know that. He deserves even more respect. I mean, strikers score from wherever they can, but it seems Klose did it from where he was forced to. That makes his achievements quite phenomenal.
Goal poaching is a an art. Having attacking awareness and being at the right place at the right time is talent. Gerd Muller, Klose and Lewandowski know how to get it done. Some people might disagree though..
Klose had his weak years though. But as he was so much more than a goal scorer that didn't matter. He was such an intelligent player! Probably my favourite of all times!

I was a tennis fan & my love for football started with Klose's flips & then surpassed Tennis's. Every single time I am feeling down I just watch his replays. It's upsetting to watch Germany after Klose, there were so many great players during Klose's time. He's so humble & yet lethal, a true star.
He is at the proper spot at the right time. That's his speciality. You can cross the ball whenever you want and you find Klose at the end of it. Definition of a true ST ❤️
@@thomass3002 no, that was the euro 2012 2010 he was injured for the 3rd place game (cacau played) and 2014 low wanted to save klose for the important games, because his body didnt allow klose to play every game, so he was saved for quaters, semis and final
Klose is such a tenacious and quick response striker. Some of his first shots were saved by the keeper but he always seemed to end up scoring the follow up.
Great focus, brilliant instinct, cool dessision-making, relentless and always choosing the simple way to score. Also one of the greats in sportmanship. There is no reason not to love him.
Germany needs a striker like this legend! He is by far my most favourite striker of all time. I followed his footsteps to become striker, learned positioning like him. 16 goals record to be unbroken!!!!!!! Player with zero haters
First player to score a headed hattrick at a world cup First player to score 5 headers in a world cup Second player to score 5 goals in consecutive world cup finals ( teofilo cubilas of Peru is the first) 3rd German player to win all 3 world cup medals ( Silver in 2002, bronze in 2006, bronze in 2010, gold in 2014) First player to appear in 4 consecutive world cup semi finals ( 2002-2014) World cup leading scorer (16 goals in 4 finals) MY IDOL
a man like Klose we will never ever have again in the German Squad :((( he has the significant Xtra to snap the Ball in the Goal ..thats was the Reason why we won so much Matches
The last pure striker for Germany. Since his retirement almost 10 years ago they didn't manage to replace him. Unusual for a striker of the modern era, this guy was introverted, humble, stealthy and therefore pretty much under the radar for opposing defenders, which made him absolutely deadly in front of the goal.
No one I know from the german team has had such a great sensibility for headers like Miro. He's always had the special touch for headers in addition to his attacking skills.
Fun Fact: Ronaldo was in the stadium as commentator for some Brazilian TV Channel during the Brazil-Germany game when Klose scored his 16th Goal to break Ronaldo's record as the all-time leading goal scorer in World Cup History.
The fact that he only had 4 goals that weren't one touch finishes is insane. He was always in the right place at the right time and his headers were a cheat code
His second goal against Ecuador (#9) is completely underrated. Just watch what a slick, elegant movement this is when Miro takes the ball with his thigh. Also beautiful assist by Ballack.
@@ugandapanda7677 he scored three against Saudi Arabia, one against Ireland, and one against Cameroon. Read on the bottom left corner mate. Just because they both wear green doesn't mean they are the same team. The stadium is also different
During his final major tournament he became the top goalscorer in World Cup history and won the World Cup with his team. Without a doubt, a perfect end to his career.
And i watched all of these games live! :-) legendary striker in the Golden age of German football (from todays point of view ;-). I still remember when Klose started his career in Kaiserslautern, back then i would have never thought that he would breakthrough and become the all-time top goal scorer of the World Cup and win 4 world cup medals during his career: 2002 (🥈), 2006 (🥉), 2010 (🥉) and then finally in 2014 (🥇). I have the feeling that Mbappe might break his goal record in 4 or 8 years. let's see...
@@Vikrusss His father is part of a german minority in Poland. A few months after he was born in poland they moved to France for 6 years.

I was a tennis fan & my love for football started with Klose's flips & then surpassed Tennis's. Every single time I am feeling down I just watch his replays. It's upsetting to watch Germany after Klose, there were so many great players during Klose's time. He's so humble & yet lethal, a true star.
The man broke the record by scoring in front of Ronaldo himself in BRAZIL
I was particularly happy because of this. It made a lot of people shut up.
Stars just aligned that day
So? Ronaldo has 5 International trophies.
Ronaldo é o melhor jogador que tive o prazer de assistir jogar.

His heading ability is second to none. One of the best of the best.
He is at the proper spot at the right time. That's his speciality. You can cross the ball whenever you want and you find Klose at the end of it. Definition of a true ST ❤️
没有klose的第二届世界杯，回来回味…最后一场战役我甚至认为他是德国队的精神领袖
never ending love for you, to me you are always the legend
Miss him so much 🥺 legend... Miro Klose.. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
If I remember correctly he didn't play all 7 matches in 2014, so he could have scored even more goals.
Sat out the 3rd place game in 2010 as well
Yeah i think gomez played some games too
@@thomass3002 no, that was the euro 2012
2010 he was injured for the 3rd place game (cacau played) and 2014 low wanted to save klose for the important games, because his body didnt allow klose to play every game, so he was saved for quaters, semis and final
@@julianarnold21 Yeah he was 36 that time already if I remember correctly
@@YaBish1 right 😄 but he was still important for germany
One of the most underrated Strikers in history
Stepped up in every World Cup❤
One of the Greats.
He is definitely unforgettable!!😢😢 missed him so much!!!
The legend!!!
The most underrated player ever..
Even his fifa rating were not high, but he is still the goat
He's the perfect german striker - he does his Job efficiently and nothing more
Klose is such a tenacious and quick response striker. Some of his first shots were saved by the keeper but he always seemed to end up scoring the follow up.
My favorite player of all time.he is The one making me support germany, when i was a child i watch him on TV until hé retired from football🙏🙏
yup, I'm too. 2002
Me too. He was the reason I love Germany team and world cup!!
Klose, my all-time favorite. There's nothing like performing on the world stage, and the classiest of players
Lewandowski nearly did it
@@schwonkel2843 just in club level, in country level he is far away from klose
Poland scorer.
Klose is the definition of a striker. He's there, in the right spot, in the right time and he does the right thing.
Great focus, brilliant instinct, cool dessision-making, relentless and always choosing the simple way to score.
Also one of the greats in sportmanship.
There is no reason not to love him.
Germany needs a striker like this legend! He is by far my most favourite striker of all time. I followed his footsteps to become striker, learned positioning like him. 16 goals record to be unbroken!!!!!!! Player with zero haters
Though I wouldn‘t be surprised if Mbappé overtakes him soon
Aaaah yes, back when Germany had strikers and most importantly - finishers.
He is such a great football player. Born to score more goals for Germany🇩🇪⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽🇩🇪
He was born in Poland.
@@fightingforce8498 Yea
If he didn't triumph in german football he said that would be a carpenter in Poland.
@@fightingforce8498 yes on former German soil, with silesian-german roots you idiot
@@fightingforce8498 but he played for Germany... So who asked?
First player to score a headed hattrick at a world cup
First player to score 5 headers in a world cup
Second player to score 5 goals in consecutive world cup finals ( teofilo cubilas of Peru is the first)
3rd German player to win all 3 world cup medals
( Silver in 2002, bronze in 2006, bronze in 2010, gold in 2014)
First player to appear in 4 consecutive world cup semi finals ( 2002-2014)
World cup leading scorer (16 goals in 4 finals)
MY IDOL
Miroslav Klose is one of my favorite footballer. He is the highest scorer of the World Cup.♥♥♥
R9 will scored even more if he plays 24 matches like klose.
@@fightingforce8498 That will be a lil difficult, poland struggles to reach the ko matches in most cases xD
@@exelenzz2386 R9 = brazilian Ronaldo, he doesn't mean RL9 = Lewandowski
@@Baumtaler oh then its his lack of english knowledge lol, was very confused bc he used present tense/ future
a man like Klose we will never ever have again in the German Squad :((( he has the significant Xtra to snap the Ball in the Goal ..thats was the Reason why we won so much Matches
Im so glad that he was able to lift the world cup trophy before he retires from the international team. Amazing player. Well deserved.
LEGEND
That's a lot, maybe a great forward player but not a legend
There was real German legends but not klose
No
This man never misses a goal when playing at World Cup! And Germany never loses whenever he scores a goal! 😱
My favorite Player of all time. Hello from Indonesia 🇲🇨
Sama!
Everyone says Mbappe will break his record. But seeing this in my childhood was something else 🔥
and the fact that he scored against big teams like argentina, england and brazil makes it even more incredible
Most underrated striker of all times
The last pure striker for Germany. Since his retirement almost 10 years ago they didn't manage to replace him. Unusual for a striker of the modern era, this guy was introverted, humble, stealthy and therefore pretty much under the radar for opposing defenders, which made him absolutely deadly in front of the goal.
No one I know from the german team has had such a great sensibility for headers like Miro. He's always had the special touch for headers in addition to his attacking skills.
One of the best underrated players in the history of world cup football
I am crying seeing this
I miss him in every match now
He's the greatest scorers I ever saw ....today Germany lost just cause he's missing
Wir brauchen wieder so einen Stürmer wie ihn😍😢🇩🇪
das sagte ich auch !!
Niki Fülle aber zu alt heute. Vielleicht Beier der musst noch reifen
My all time favorite. One of the best that Germany ever had🇩🇪
Miro Klose. My favorite player ever, the one I idolized above the rest
Absolutely magnificent, no penalty and all open play goals, what a legend, what a world cup winner, salute miroslav klose!!!
Fun Fact: Ronaldo was in the stadium as commentator for some Brazilian TV Channel during the Brazil-Germany game when Klose scored his 16th Goal to break Ronaldo's record as the all-time leading goal scorer in World Cup History.
Me: How much did those flip celebrations take it’s toll on his knees?
Arthritis: Yes
Danke Miroslav Klose Die Mannschaft 🇩🇪
He is Poland.

@@bluestorm9218 Klose es polaco... Wikipedia
The fact that he only had 4 goals that weren't one touch finishes is insane. He was always in the right place at the right time and his headers were a cheat code
His second goal against Ecuador (#9) is completely underrated. Just watch what a slick, elegant movement this is when Miro takes the ball with his thigh. Also beautiful assist by Ballack.
Are you kidding me? He just scored 4 headers in one game
he deserves 99 heading in Fifa 😂
@@zlatanisiert EA:9 take it or leave it
in which game did he score 4 goals?
@@FAOHUESOS Against Saudi Arabia in 2002. Look in the beginning
@@ugandapanda7677 he scored three against Saudi Arabia, one against Ireland, and one against Cameroon. Read on the bottom left corner mate. Just because they both wear green doesn't mean they are the same team. The stadium is also different

You are right 😊
@A simple Yt user he is Poland.
Werner is useless. Klose is the best.
Fact:He scored all goals by head in 2002 world cup
Fun fact :
All of those goals were assisted by Michael Ballack
If only Ballack was not injured in 2010, it would be a tremendous semi final against Spain.
@@khabamoirangthem4006 if only Ballack didn’t get the yellow card against S.korea in 2002, the final outcome could be different

@@khabamoirangthem4006 muller to didnt played in semi final aginst spain in 2010 or else germany would won the cup
During his final major tournament he became the top goalscorer in World Cup history and won the World Cup with his team. Without a doubt, a perfect end to his career.
Yes, and he deserved that so much!!❤❤
And i watched all of these games live! :-) legendary striker in the Golden age of German football (from todays point of view ;-). I still remember when Klose started his career in Kaiserslautern, back then i would have never thought that he would breakthrough and become the all-time top goal scorer of the World Cup and win 4 world cup medals during his career: 2002 (🥈), 2006 (🥉), 2010 (🥉) and then finally in 2014 (🥇). I have the feeling that Mbappe might break his goal record in 4 or 8 years. let's see...
An absolute legend❤️❤️
Incredible Legend 🇩🇪💯
He is Poland.
@@fightingforce8498 nope, he is German. Or did he played for Poland?
@@jensfuchs1399 he's family is polish and he went to Germany when he was 9 yeras old
@@Vikrusss but he decided to play for Germany...and this is only possible if you are German citizen. It's a fact!
@@Vikrusss His father is part of a german minority in Poland. A few months after he was born in poland they moved to France for 6 years. They returned to Poland for one year, but then moved to Germany. So Miro spent most of his youth in Germany and only one year and a few months in Poland. Wether he nor his family are polish.
Unassuming, but deadly. He was an amazing finisher. Brilliant with his positioning.
Even Ronaldo (Brazil) & Gerd Mueller still have at least a penalty goal in WC. But this guy didn't have any single penalty goal. A true goalgetter.
such an underrated striker...his positional awareness, aerial presence and finishing ability inside the box was phenomenal.
