Maradona's second goal against England in the 1986 World Cup was without a doubt the greatest goal in World Cup history. Receiving the ball on his own field near midfield, Maradona marched towards the English goal leaving in his wake English player after English player after English player (five in total) completely destroying them to finish by sweetly dribbling past the oh-so-great English goalkeeper Shilton and softly depositing the ball in the back of the net! Absolute genius!
Thanks for the comment Dino, unfortunately, my English-English lacks in depth so I am unable to really appreciate your words. If you could please "translate" to American-English it will be appreciated. Thanks again!
@@hocinimahmoud6682 Thank you for your reply. If, like you said, "no one have seen it" how do you know then that Pelé scored the same goal against México in the World Cup in 1962? It does not make sense.
Carlos Alberto's goal was a masterpiece of individual and team skill. But it was already 3-1 for Brazil with just a few minutes left. The Italians were thoroughly beaten, plus they must have been physically and emotionally exhausted from the epic heavyweight overtime slugfest they had just had in the semis against West Germany. Just look at how Pele had tons of space to receive the ball and make his pass. Bergkamp, on the other hand, scored his goal in the last minute of what was at that point an unbelievably tense 1-1 draw against a great Argentina team that had the upper hand. To this day I can't imagine playing 90 minutes against Argentina and still producing that first touch. So I would rank them - Maradona, Bergkamp, Alberto.
thats their fault brazil 70 the best end of 1982 brazil most spectacular most artistic ,most magnificent ,and flamboyant collection of goals by any national team ever
Compared to nowadays they of course had lots of space. But nevertheless this goal is also my favourit. A goal like being planned on a drawing board. Great setup, then an assist by Pelé like on a silver plate and finally the perfect strike by Carlos Alberto with a shooting technique from a textbook. I guess this has been broadcast before the 2014 World Cup. Otherwise it would, maybe should have included van Persies header against Spain, Goetzes Goal against Argentina and of course Rodriguez' volley against Uruguay.
You can say the same of the tackling of the English players. Nowadays, Maradona would have been on the ground before he even got close to the penalty area. It was almost like the English players were saying, go on, don't mind us, we are just going to pretend we are defending. Next time, use your hands or sniff some coca.
Guys I just realized something very important watching this video. I am an Argentinian supporter and 98 WC was the first one I watched. Though I didn't understand football that much back then but have to say that Owen's goal was just frighteningly good. I think if he wasn't that injury prone he would be considered greatest English footballer of all time ❤❤

That one journalist saying 1970 was a great time to be a boy brought me to tears! I was 11 then and there were so many fantastic legends to idolize. Such good memories
6:06 I already know that the number one goal is Maradona 86 against England and even as an Englishman how a short ass like Maradona managed to out jump Shilton to score was amazing simply magical and his second goal wasn’t too bad either!
“Maradona, turns like a little eel. He comes away from trouble, little squat man, comes inside Butcher and leaves him for dead, outside Fenwick and leaves him for dead, and puts the ball away. And that is why Maradona is the greatest player in the world.” - Bryon Butler
Di María's goal in 2022 WC Final made this video age badly. Easily better than Carlos Alberto's goal. Hellishly fast and precise, lots of one touch passes, in the WC Final, against the reigning Champ. Also, where is Robin Van Persie's magic flying header? There are at least 10 goals lesser than that one in this list.
A moment please for the always eloquent commentary of Peter Brackley, who elevated C4's Italy coverage throughout the 90s and much more besides. Deserves to be in the pantheon of commentators, and I feel is overlooked.
Love seeing these old goals. Brings back a lot of memories (Negrete in 1986, Bergkamp in 98, Frings in 2006, etc) I'm pretty sure this program was produced before the 2014 World Cup, which had a lot of nice goals as well (Cahill, Persie, Rodriguez, etc).
41:36 I thought Maradona’s goal would be number one but earlier watching a video about Maradona I noticed something about that goal I never noticed in 38yrs is the bit of skill when he first gets the ball he just spins taking the ball with him beats two players and the starts his run simply magical
Both Ronaldinho and Rivaldo goals from that game deserve it honestly. Importance and how brilliant they were... i guess the English are still a little sore lol.

I think Maradona's goal is no.1, though the Carlos Alberto goal was awesome. A. Robben's goal against defending champion Spain in 2014, Ronaldinho's FK vs England, Di Maria's goal in E.T. vs Switzerland, Messi's goal at injury time vs Iran & beautiful control & finish vs Nigeria in 2018, David Luiz's FK in quarter final of 2014, J. Rodriguez's volly in 2014, Van Persi's flying header vs Spain could be on the list
I feel you, man. As a Pole, I was absolutely sure there wouldn't be a single Polish goal included. I mean hey, we just finished third twice, not many teams can say that, but who cares, right? We always have to do more to be noticed. I think the selection is a crude mix of goals that you'd expect and that deserve to be on the list, goals apparently chosen mainly to include some exotic countries, goals that are only included to add more British goals (that Charlton goal, absolutely no one is trying to attack him or block his shot in any way or shape), and the #1 choice is a joke, I wouldn't even put it in my top 50 (I know it's kind of legendary, but I really mean it, I don't see anything special about it). In these two games alone we scored at least 3 or 4 better goals: ua-cam.com/video/OjnpPQfJvig/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/CIHP8NQX4Pc/v-deo.html Or what are those two Bulgarian goals doing on this list? I think our goal against Italy in '74 was better than Letchkov's header: ua-cam.com/video/OaDee0Y0RXc/v-deo.html
For me, Bergkamp's '98 goal versus Argentina is my #1 choice, because of the control from the De Boer pass. As great as the Carlos Alberto and Maradona goals are, they were much more technically precise. Because of the lack of "polish" on it, to me it suggests Bergkamp would mis-hit it. But the control was beautiful.
In fact, the more I think about it, I'd put Alberto's goal at #4, mostly because it was about how it was set up rather than how it was scored. Alberto didn't have to do as much as Maradona and Bergkamp did. I put the Arie Haan goal at #3, Maradona at #2, and Bergkamp #1. And Owairan's goal is in the top ten, but I can't figure out where after my top four.
Which one is more difficult to score? Bergkamp's or Maradona's? Come on. Going past half a team from midfield is million times more difficult and requires a lot more skill.
@waso778 I remember them so well neeskens, cryuff, Johnny rep all fantastic players. But still won nothing. Euros 88 that's it Best in the world has to have a world Cup winners medal
@@philipcarthy2977 yes.. but even not winning can still be best team ever. It's about the style they played. For me club team Milan end 80th begin 90th are best club team. Yeah they won lol
Thanks for sharing all these wonderful goals. Everyone has his own list, but it doesnt matter. What matters is football and the bond it creates among fans from all over the world.
No 28 Eder,was famous for his powerful shot-he was called the canon,he made Alan Rough go down as he faked to shoot low-no doubt the keeper knew about his power,then chipped him beautifully.Best football that I've ever seen Brazil 82.
OF COURSE.. YOU DIDN'T SEE BRAZIL IN '70, THE MOST POWERFUL FOOTBALL MACHINE IN HISTORY. WITH A BRAIN IN MIDFIELD THAT FEW TALK ABOUT... G E R S O N.. A BEAST DISHING OUT GAME
Two very important things to remember i) the second goal came after he had cheated ii) It was still brilliant. Should it be first? You're not getting that vote by British broadcasters on British TV. It will never happen...and I don't blame them.
All nice goals, but I find the entire list very biased towards long-distance shots. I can think of a few goals that I would prefer over many of these. No Götze WorldCup decider 2014 in the entire list?
Check out Romario of Brazil goals at USA 94 which helped Brazil win the world cup at USA 94. Most of this goals were at close range delivered with very high levels of skill that only Brazilians can produce.
I nominate Mario Goetze's goal against Argentina in extra time in the 2014 World Cup Final that gave Germany its first World Cup in South America. It was an amazing goal to end a spectacular run of wins by the German Team at the 2014 World Cup, not least of which was the dominant 7-1 defeat of Brazil in the semi-final match. I can still replay Goetze's goal in my mind, 10 years later!
Muy bello si pero como le fue al tipo después, hay algo con esos jugadores alemanes que acabaron con Argentina dos veces el de Italia 90 y este sr goetze mira como la a pasado el después de Brasil?
Faisal Al Dakil, Spain 1982, Negrete Mexico 1986; Socrates vs. Italy Spain 1982, there a lot of missed greatest goals, and others that never deserve to be here.
Was looking for that one. Wasn’t sure the 2014 cup had happened bc Cahill and James were both not on the list. Surprised iniestas winner didn’t make the cut from 2006
I went to the 1970 WC and saw every game Brazil played. Pele's header to the ground, Gerson's long balls and winning goal in the final, Rivelino's free kicks and dribbles, Tostao (the white Pele) involved in every play weaving here and there, Clodoaldo's domination of the midfield - they were tested before the WC and determined to be the lowest ranked on physical training! Gerson smoked, and hated to run. Tostao had just returned from injury. They dismissed their coach and just played for the love of it. Every one of these players was the best in his position in the world. Even players like Ademir Da Guia could not make the team. The goalie was the worst in the WC, so they determined to not allow any shots to go against him by keeping the ball to themselves. However, Piazza and Alberto were the greatest of defenders. The Brazilian league was the greatest league ever. Besides Maradona's goal (which was reproduced exactly by Messi in Barcelona's shirt), Didier Six' and Cambiasso' s goals were my favorite.
they left out another amazing part of Bergkamp's goal. Just before the pass was made, the Dutch announcer said (in Dutch), "I have a feeling we are going through to the semifinal" (the game was tied), then the pass flew, then Bergkamp made thost masterful touches, then the announcer had a Bergkamp orgasm: "Denis Berkamp! Denis Bergkamp!" again and again after the score. It's one of the greatest calls, if not the greatest call ever.
The thing about the Brazilian goal that makes it deserve the number one spot is the fact that it literally had everything you could ever want to see in football
@@ScratchyBaws yes agreed 70s Brazil were amazing ,more balanced Roberto riverlino ,jairzhinho, midfeild mastro gerson, palo Cesar the incomparible pele, clodaldo ,carlos Alberto ,everaldo Antonio ,Brito ,piazza enough said
@@spendover too freely pehaps haters say thaey had a poor defence but when italy scored their third goal which shouldt even had counted as it didnt cross the line for a corner Brazil had 10 players in the box , it was a scuffed shot by marco tardelli ,that somehow found its way to Rossi who instinctively hit it juniour Brazil left back actually played him onside because had he had pushed up just a fraction he would have been offside
Caniggia scored the gol it tie the game 1-1 after Toto Schillasi put the 1-0 in the first half,checking the gol I believe Caniggia was slightly pushed from behind by the italian player but managed to head back and score this important goal.
Cannigia's goal came from inside the little box. Borgetti had no angle. No one saw that coming, specially with Maldini breathing on his neck. Jared's goal is by far superior.
El gol de Canniggia en Italia-90 no tiene nada que ver con el de Borgetti, si se fijan bien fue dentro del area chica ademas recibio un pequeño toque del central sin embargo el de Borgetti fue mucho mas complejo por la distancia hasta el arco, la posición del delantero y la presión del defensa que era nada mas y nada menos que Maldini.
Also, here's one I felt was left off the list (American and Belgian, despite the screen name, fyi). Brian McBride's opening goal for United States against Mexico in the round of 16 in 2002. United States wins a free kick in the Mexico half, quickly re-starts, Claudio Reyna avoids a tackle, goes towards the end line, and finally gives the ball up to Josh Wolff; Wolff one touches the ball to McBride, who's wide open, and goes from right to left, slightly lower in terms of aim. Beautiful goal for me, although I can see why it would get left off.
1982 Semifinal France v WGermany Klaus Fischer not in the 50? Have you even seen this? And by the way, Maradona's goal is the highlight of football forever. As a Brazilian Maradona has win the Cup 4 or 5 times.
I must admit being Dutch, the Bergkamp goal is a typical Dutch Masterpiece. He paints the mathematical long ball by Frank de Boer, on the canvas like a Rembrandt, Vermeer and van Gogh in three brushstrokes.
I'm at goal number 11... I guarantee you that Maradona v England 86 and Carlos Alberto 1970 will be one and two... I'm guessing Bergkamp v Argentina 2022 will be top 5
Am not seeing enough of those great Luis Naserio Delima RONALDO goals! Tear apart the midfield, send defence scrambling, turn the keeper the wrong way, then tap into an empty net🙏
Klinsmans Header Against USA in 1998 WC was never even considered. Arjien Robbens First and Second Goals against Spain in 2014 and Robben Van Percys Goal also in 2014 WC were master pieces as well. They must have never seen them.
6:06 I already know that the number one goal is Maradona 86 against England and even as an Englishman how a short ass like Maradona managed to out jump Shilton to score was amazing simply magical and his second goal wasn’t too bad either!
42:36 Gerson, Clodoaldo Slalom, Rivelino finding Jairzinho, then he takes on the defenders getting trapped, leaving it to Pelé who was at his finest, calm and genius, he rolls it to Carlos Alberto exactly on the path of that little bump on the pitch that would make the ball lift from the ground just the right amount to allow for the outside of boot of Carlos Alberto to strike it as sweetly and as powerfully as you will ever see an strike. The way the ball blasts the bottom corner then TOSTÃO arriving and kicking the ball once again into the net while the players run behind the goal celebrating... you can't write this stuff. Too perfect!
@@holler8hermann58 Every goal is perfect, because it's a goal. And this video is about the greatest goals and not the ones with a lot at stake. Otherwise every victorious final goal would be automatically the greatest.
To me Maradona's goals in Mexico 1986 and USA 1994 where he left the tournament early. Who knows if he played on in 1994 Argentina might have won USA 94. But I am glad Brazil won. Another favourite of mine was Romario's goals at USA 94. Baggio goal in 1990. Some of Brazil's goal in Spain 1982. Hard to choose really so many fantastic goals in World Cups.
Carlos goal in the finals against Italy was a great team work goal! It has sheer power in it! Otherwise it wasn't there in the category of Maradona, Owen or Berkemp!
Maradona should be no.1 they opeted for Brazil to make it interesting for views, but over time this just looks silly. People always bleat on about Pele's pass but it isn't that special, the build up was the most impressive part. You can argue about a great 'team goal' but really we should be looking at the scorer. Maradona made football into a ballet with his goal. No other player has done that.
En mi humilde opiniòn el gol de Ronaldinho a Inglaterra en K-J 2002 debio estar entre los 50 mejores goles de los mundiales por la distancia,la posiciòn y el golpeo aparte de que fue una verdadera mancha en el buen historial del "marinero" David Seaman.
Thing with cheat is, it works both ways, what would you call the 1966 final against Germany with a goal that never actually entered the goal?@@rusanwolfa
Maradona's was the best player of all time...that goal shows you why.....it is the best WC goal ever. I am not even close to being Argentinian, but I know soccer/football
Eusebio, Pele , Cruyff, Beckenbauer, even Maradona said George Best was the greatest of all time, Both Ronaldos, Ronaldinho, Mueller, Moore , Dino Zoff , Zidane, could go on its all subjective
got to go deeper...he was the ONLY reason Napoli went from bottom to top in one of worlds best leagues and won 2 titles and EUFA Cup..he was ONLY reason Arg went to 2 WCups and won with best goal of century..sure there has been great players...and Maradona cant say himself is best ...he has to pick someone else...all young people think its messi but they have no clue about Maradona@@simoncampbell3144

In fact, the more I think about it, I'd put Alberto's goal at #4, mostly because it was about how it was set up rather than how it was scored. Alberto didn't have to do as much as Maradona and Bergkamp did. I put the Arie Haan goal at #3, Maradona at #2, and Bergkamp #1. And Owairan's goal is in the top ten, but I can't figure out where after my top four.
Which one is more difficult to score? Bergkamp's or Maradona's? Come on. Going past half a team from midfield is million times more difficult and requires a lot more skill.
That goal is so overrated, shouldn't be anywhere near the top 10.
@@alejandroyanun2465 Exactly, not even close. Bergkamp's is not even top 20 in terms of difficulty.
I am hungarian fan. Please take a look at the gool by János Farkas Hungary vs brazil 1966. The brazil team won the cup in 62. Enjoy:)
Man that Pele assist for Jairzinho against England was ridiculous. So much skill and vision involved. Similar to the one for Carlos Alberto
Absolutely perfect, the best team, and by far the best goal, that's why we watch football, to see teams like the 70 world cup.
Netherlamds 74 best country team ever.
@@waso778 that won nothing
@@philipcarthy2977 and? Marodonna, Pelé and Beckenbauer.. said it.
@waso778 I remember them so well neeskens, cryuff, Johnny rep all fantastic players.
But still won nothing.
Euros 88 that's it
Best in the world has to have a world Cup winners medal
@@philipcarthy2977 yes.. but even not winning can still be best team ever. It's about the style they played. For me club team Milan end 80th begin 90th are best club team. Yeah they won lol
Thanks for sharing all these wonderful goals. Everyone has his own list, but it doesnt matter. What matters is football and the bond it creates among fans from all over the world.
Maradona's goal... by faaaaar
A truth hard to swallow in London.
That’s the English for you , never pay much attention to them. Over there everything is upside-down
No 28 Eder,was famous for his powerful shot-he was called the canon,he made Alan Rough go down as he faked to shoot low-no doubt the keeper knew about his power,then chipped him beautifully.Best football that I've ever seen Brazil 82.
OF COURSE.. YOU DIDN'T SEE BRAZIL IN '70, THE MOST POWERFUL FOOTBALL MACHINE IN HISTORY. WITH A BRAIN IN MIDFIELD THAT FEW TALK ABOUT... G E R S O N.. A BEAST DISHING OUT GAME
Two very important things to remember i) the second goal came after he had cheated ii) It was still brilliant. Should it be first? You're not getting that vote by British broadcasters on British TV. It will never happen...and I don't blame them.
magistral el tiro libre del nene Cubillas,pegandole con la cara externa de su pie derecho.arriba PERUUUU 🇵🇪🇵🇪💪❤️🍈💕🇵🇪🇵🇪
Frings' goal was my first memory of world cup football in 06. What a hit!
Hagi's goal was underrated for sure..... Should be in the top 10
All nice goals, but I find the entire list very biased towards long-distance shots. I can think of a few goals that I would prefer over many of these.
No Götze WorldCup decider 2014 in the entire list?
Check out Romario of Brazil goals at USA 94 which helped Brazil win the world cup at USA 94. Most of this goals were at close range delivered with very high levels of skill that only Brazilians can produce.
True, let's say Joe Cole goal was not that spectacular or difficult
I nominate Mario Goetze's goal against Argentina in extra time in the 2014 World Cup Final that gave Germany its first World Cup in South America. It was an amazing goal to end a spectacular run of wins by the German Team at the 2014 World Cup, not least of which was the dominant 7-1 defeat of Brazil in the semi-final match. I can still replay Goetze's goal in my mind, 10 years later!
Muy bello si pero como le fue al tipo después, hay algo con esos jugadores alemanes que acabaron con Argentina dos veces el de Italia 90 y este sr goetze mira como la a pasado el después de Brasil?
Agree.
Faisal Al Dakil, Spain 1982, Negrete Mexico 1986; Socrates vs. Italy Spain 1982, there a lot of missed greatest goals, and others that never deserve to be here.
What about header van persie
really unremarkable goal
I was looking out for that header in the top 5
Clearly, this was made before that World Cup.
@@JCO78 really unremarkable comment
Two very difficult headers goal were missed out.
Holland Van Persie 2014
West Germany Zeller 1970
Timmy Cahill's volley in 14, an absolute top 10 of all time. Its as good if not better than any other volley showm here.
Against netherlands right?
Was looking for that one. Wasn’t sure the 2014 cup had happened bc Cahill and James were both not on the list. Surprised iniestas winner didn’t make the cut from 2006
Yes...Netherlands had just scored
@@naggraaaj11
I went to the 1970 WC and saw every game Brazil played. Pele's header to the ground, Gerson's long balls and winning goal in the final, Rivelino's free kicks and dribbles, Tostao (the white Pele) involved in every play weaving here and there, Clodoaldo's domination of the midfield - they were tested before the WC and determined to be the lowest ranked on physical training! Gerson smoked, and hated to run. Tostao had just returned from injury. They dismissed their coach and just played for the love of it. Every one of these players was the best in his position in the world. Even players like Ademir Da Guia could not make the team. The goalie was the worst in the WC, so they determined to not allow any shots to go against him by keeping the ball to themselves. However, Piazza and Alberto were the greatest of defenders. The Brazilian league was the greatest league ever. Besides Maradona's goal (which was reproduced exactly by Messi in Barcelona's shirt), Didier Six' and Cambiasso' s goals were my favorite.
Beautiful goals are very subjective :-) My top 10 would be totally different, but thanks a lot for that entertaining video.
they left out another amazing part of Bergkamp's goal. Just before the pass was made, the Dutch announcer said (in Dutch), "I have a feeling we are going through to the semifinal" (the game was tied), then the pass flew, then Bergkamp made thost masterful touches, then the announcer had a Bergkamp orgasm: "Denis Berkamp! Denis Bergkamp!" again and again after the score. It's one of the greatest calls, if not the greatest call ever.
The thing about the Brazilian goal that makes it deserve the number one spot is the fact that it literally had everything you could ever want to see in football
Brasil '82 - from another planet
100 percent
I agree and that was the last time Brazil played free
So were the 70 Brazil.
@@ScratchyBaws yes agreed 70s Brazil were amazing ,more balanced Roberto riverlino ,jairzhinho, midfeild mastro gerson, palo Cesar the incomparible pele, clodaldo ,carlos Alberto ,everaldo Antonio ,Brito ,piazza enough said
@@spendover too freely
pehaps haters say thaey had a poor defence but when italy scored their third goal which shouldt even had counted as it didnt cross the line for a corner
Brazil had 10 players in the box , it was a scuffed shot by marco tardelli ,that somehow found its way to Rossi who instinctively hit it
juniour Brazil left back actually played him onside because had he had pushed up just a fraction he would have been offside
Maradona's goal against Belgium should have been so much higher.
Fantastic selection !!!!
Maradona was a gift of God.
El 2 gol de Maradona el Gol más grande de todos los tiempos
...junto con el primero que se llama mano de dios
Best player ever, best goal ever, Maradona!!! Forget the rest
Yes but now the goat 🐐 is Missi then Maradona
Maradona second goal against England in 1986 was voted the goal of the century. That goal is my all time fav. simply the best
No difference to Saudi Arabia goal, just was Maradona.
Carlos Aberto is unique in the context.
@@caravaggio31 The difference is in the quality of the opposition and the level of the stakes.
ZICO The Best gol World Cup 1982 !!
Pobre Ayala. Quedó pegado en dos de los 5 mejores goles. Un defensor extraordinario, pero esos dos genios (Owen y Bergkamp) lo dejaron parado.
Idk why they say Borgetti's header was so unique. Caniggia scored a similar one in 1990
They felt they had to include something from Mexico...
@@ernestogasulla7763 mexico's goal in 1986 is way better...dont remember what match..maybe against belgium. Manuel Negrete
Caniggia scored the gol it tie the game 1-1 after Toto Schillasi put the 1-0 in the first half,checking the gol I believe Caniggia was slightly pushed from behind by the italian player but managed to head back and score this important goal.
Cannigia's goal came from inside the little box. Borgetti had no angle. No one saw that coming, specially with Maldini breathing on his neck. Jared's goal is by far superior.
El gol de Canniggia en Italia-90 no tiene nada que ver con el de Borgetti, si se fijan bien fue dentro del area chica ademas recibio un pequeño toque del central sin embargo el de Borgetti fue mucho mas complejo por la distancia hasta el arco, la posición del delantero y la presión del defensa que era nada mas y nada menos que Maldini.
Maradona's "Barrilete cósmico" is football's undying beauty in a nutshell.
Owen goal doesn't deserve to be in top 20
Brilliant Goals 👏
Also, here's one I felt was left off the list (American and Belgian, despite the screen name, fyi).
Brian McBride's opening goal for United States against Mexico in the round of 16 in 2002. United States wins a free kick in the Mexico half, quickly re-starts, Claudio Reyna avoids a tackle, goes towards the end line, and finally gives the ball up to Josh Wolff; Wolff one touches the ball to McBride, who's wide open, and goes from right to left, slightly lower in terms of aim. Beautiful goal for me, although I can see why it would get left off.
Please learn the difference between a scissor kick and an overhead kick
The Baggio goal italia 90 should be higher
It was a goal from the Ponytail Magician
1982 Semifinal France v WGermany Klaus Fischer not in the 50? Have you even seen this? And by the way, Maradona's goal is the highlight of football forever. As a Brazilian Maradona has win the Cup 4 or 5 times.
ميسي من جعل كرة القدم سهله للغايه
The second goal of the last world cup, as a team accomplishment is beautiful
This list is compromised when Maradona's is number 2 and Baggio's number 25.
I must admit being Dutch, the Bergkamp goal is a typical Dutch Masterpiece.
He paints the mathematical long ball by Frank de Boer, on the canvas like a Rembrandt, Vermeer and van Gogh in three brushstrokes.
Where is Careca's goal for Brazil vs France in the Quarter Final of the World Cup in 1986?
That was a wonderful goal and deserves to be on the list
Cubillas is from Mars
I'm at goal number 11... I guarantee you that Maradona v England 86 and Carlos Alberto 1970 will be one and two... I'm guessing Bergkamp v Argentina 2022 will be top 5
haha! c'mon guys! we ALL know Diego's second against england is THE BEST GOAL EVER!...EVER!
this list is invalid without Klaus Fischers equalizing bicycle kick in overtime in the semifinals versus France in 1982
.... the only goal I was waiting for in the list. Carlos Alberto's goal has always stuck on my mind.
Really a video about best world cup goals and its all about germanic speaking countries ,South America and Africa
Sunday oliseh winner against spain @france 98 should be in the Top 40
My compatriot Teófilo Cubillas' goal against Scotland is a beauty.
Don't call it the best 50 goals, call it a random representation of some of the goals that come to mind.
Jared Borgettis header should be higher, insane technique vs Maldini and Buffon
😂
How does the best goal of the century is not the best world cup goal? I mean Maradona's of course
Maradonas goal is the best ever in history of football hands down.
Am not seeing enough of those great Luis Naserio Delima RONALDO goals! Tear apart the midfield, send defence scrambling, turn the keeper the wrong way, then tap into an empty net🙏
Ronaldo R9 vs Türkiye masterpiece
I remember Bilek(CZE) in 1990. Chovanec passed him from the corner and Bilek with volley from 20m shot goal.
Messi 2018 Nigeria
Klinsmans Header Against USA in 1998 WC was never even considered. Arjien Robbens First and Second Goals against Spain in 2014 and Robben Van Percys Goal also in 2014 WC were master pieces as well. They must have never seen them.
6:06 I already know that the number one goal is Maradona 86 against England and even as an Englishman how a short ass like Maradona managed to out jump Shilton to score was amazing simply magical and his second goal wasn’t too bad either!
There are a lot of ordinary goals. Yet, you didn't put in the Stojkovic's goal against Spain in 1990. Neither Laudrup's from 1986.
Klose 2010 against England deserves a shout.
42:36 Gerson, Clodoaldo Slalom, Rivelino finding Jairzinho, then he takes on the defenders getting trapped, leaving it to Pelé who was at his finest, calm and genius, he rolls it to Carlos Alberto exactly on the path of that little bump on the pitch that would make the ball lift from the ground just the right amount to allow for the outside of boot of Carlos Alberto to strike it as sweetly and as powerfully as you will ever see an strike. The way the ball blasts the bottom corner then TOSTÃO arriving and kicking the ball once again into the net while the players run behind the goal celebrating... you can't write this stuff. Too perfect!
I miss the goal Mario Götze scored in the 2014 final. That was perfect. Apart from that pretty good choices.
only for a german supporter. objectively it was trivial
@@riatsudni8563 it was a perfect goal and it was a final and in overtime, so there was a lot at stake. and no, I'm neither German nor a supporter.
@@holler8hermann58 Every goal is perfect, because it's a goal. And this video is about the greatest goals and not the ones with a lot at stake. Otherwise every victorious final goal would be automatically the greatest.
To me Maradona's goals in Mexico 1986 and USA 1994 where he left the tournament early. Who knows if he played on in 1994 Argentina might have won USA 94. But I am glad Brazil won. Another favourite of mine was Romario's goals at USA 94. Baggio goal in 1990. Some of Brazil's goal in Spain 1982. Hard to choose really so many fantastic goals in World Cups.
Carlos goal in the finals against Italy was a great team work goal! It has sheer power in it! Otherwise it wasn't there in the category of Maradona, Owen or Berkemp!
No Ronaldinho free kick from 2002? Probably hurt too much.
Eder's goal was magnificent. Besides, Eder was my favourite player of the 1982 World Cup in Spain.
Maradona should be no.1 they opeted for Brazil to make it interesting for views, but over time this just looks silly. People always bleat on about Pele's pass but it isn't that special, the build up was the most impressive part. You can argue about a great 'team goal' but really we should be looking at the scorer. Maradona made football into a ballet with his goal. No other player has done that.
Absolutely. This looks like British propaganda.
@@dantolino1093 ha, I don't know, but probably bias.
@@lotuseater7247 Attempting to rewrite history. It's hard to be the plastic cones in football's most iconic ride.
En mi humilde opiniòn el gol de Ronaldinho a Inglaterra en K-J 2002 debio estar entre los 50 mejores goles de los mundiales por la distancia,la posiciòn y el golpeo aparte de que fue una verdadera mancha en el buen historial del "marinero" David Seaman.
Not putting Diego's masterpiece first is absolute rubbish....
Nah, Michael Owen is no 1!😉
, 100%...that Brazil goal you see many times each year in int football...that Maradona goal will NEVER be replicated...
I see it as an attempt to degrade Diego's colossal feat, because it was made at their expense.
@@dantolino1093 Now that's stating the obvious!!
yeah...i never saw the build up to that brazil goal before!!!only the goal...Maradona is the GOAT and bar..... Goal of all time!@@dantolino1093
The English have to get over it. Maradona and his solo run is the greatest.
We have. He was in my opinion the greatest. Still cheated. Reverse the situation, would you be happy? Hand of God = cheat.
@@rusanwolfa thats why he was genius...outclass that english keeper...
Argentina was the superior team that afternoon. I dare anyone to deny that. Remember Tapia's shot to the post?
