    Great Goals need the occasion too. Carlos Alberto finishing Brazil's fourth, Maradona's run or Van Basten's Volley the three that immediately jump to me.

    Seem bonkers now but remember watching Barca v Valencia at the Nou Camp with Barca needing the win to finish 4th in the league and qualify for the Champ League.

    Rivaldo put in one of the best individual performances I’d seen as a young man in his very early twenties as he scored twice with Valencia scoring two of their own.

    Last minute, think it was De Boer who chips the ball up to Rivaldo with his back to goal about 20 yds out.

    Rivaldo chests it and fires an overhead kick past the Valencia keeper.

    For me at the time, it was orgasmic and will probably stick with me to my dying days, brilliant game and drama.

    Bergkamp against Argentina was a belter too, some technic with the Dutch.

    Davor Suker against Denmark in 96 was sublime. Even Schmeichel applauded him.

    good luck, mate.

    Ps maradonna’s goal (the run against Nigel in 86) wasn’t that good. The defending was the worst I’ve seen in pro football.

    but maradonna is the best player of all time so I’ll let him away with it.

    See this is where I think occasion comes into it. I've seen Brian L/Gazza do similar for Rangers for example but World Cup Quarters, all eyes on it etc, makes it a better goal. b

    Same with Alberto vs Italy. There's been far better team goals. WIlshere vs a ****e Norwich for example but World Cup final/arguably the best team ever...it all adds to the goal.

    Cruyff was the most complete and best player ever. Even better than Darren Mackie, higher praise than that is futile.

    Bergkamp did similar,one against Newcastle for Arsenal and one for Holland in the WC, not going to Google but think it was against the Argies @monacoger to confirm.

    Can only disagree.

    Ronaldo (Real)
    Messi
    Diego

    That's top 3 for this panicked but handsome Sheep.

    He did, hadn't read all the posts but at least my simpletonism and autism gives me some comfort knowing good goals in my head.
