Trent do you know the scene in Visionquest about Pele?
By the way I think if you slow down that unreal Maradona goal he only touches the ball with his right foot. The whole thing was absurd. But yes, I wasn't suggesting many goals are guys dribbling half the field alone and then shooting, but there are still lots of goals IMO that are predominantly individual efforts. Matter of degree. I missed a chance to see Maradona in the late 89s. Stupid.

Peter- I am enough of a soccer "nerd" to know that movie scene, yes. Chilling
and nail on the head! I guess I'll close by saying that players like Pele, Maradona, Messi fit that movie scene more than Ronaldo does. I'm just a guy with an opinion, but I have watched a ton of soccer and am more than a causal fan. Here's one back at you. If you want to see a goal that leaves your jaw falling open, do an internet search for "Dennis Bergkamp best goal- Arsenal and Newcastle". It's a 30 second clip and is ASTONISHING! Did you know that some of his teammates used to bet with each other regarding how many days (!) Bergkamp would go in practice, without making a mistake in a drill? Trent King |

I know the Bergkamp goal very well. He has quite a few highlight reel goals truly.

Peter- yes he does, he was a master. Did you know that his teammates
nicknamed him "The Non Flying Dutchman" because he feared plane travel? Trent King |

LOL.
The goal against Argentina was remarkable, if you watch it in slow motion the control is unreal. Of course it's also set up by a fabulous pass.

Firmly in the Messi camp for the main argument in this thread.
For great goals I think Luc Nilis has possibly the greatest overall collection of them. I know he competed mainly in Holland and Belgium but these are simply staggering in their type - power, precision, dead-ball, dribbling, volley, half-volley and ridiculous angles.
