The Football.....

Aye, that Owen goal was something else.

It always surprises me that someone so exciting on the pitch could be so unbelievably dull off it.

 

[No Ta Doctor]

DO YOU HAVE ANY FAVOURITE WORLD CUP GOALS ?
I have terrible memory for such things but have just been watching a Sky sports prog showing the greatest.......when i see them they bring back great memories eg
England vs Italy.......the Wonderful Gascoigne goal followed by an equally good one by Bagio.
The Michael Owen individual goal when he was just 18.....breathtaking.

 

[AndyRM]

That first touch though...

Still may favourite WC goal, followed closely by Michael Owen. Bergkamp was a mercurial genius but also a nasty so and so. If I remember correctly he should have been sent off in that game for a blatant elbow!

Moments after the "hand of god" Maradonna goal vs England in '86, his second goal was sublime, dribbling through most of the England players from the wrong side of the half way line.

The Archie Gemmill one in 1978 was pretty special.

That filthy Cheat's goal above - why did no one just hack him down?!!

I think they tried!

Not sure what I like more about Maradona. His skill, or how much his Hand of God winds up England fans.

It might have done forty years ago but not now.
It was clever though because i was sure he had headed it and it wasn't until they showed the replays that you saw he had handballed it.
