favorite goal

One for the soccer fan, what do you feel is the best/most impressive goal?

For me it's the second Maradona goal in the semifinal of the 1986 World Cup against England. Shitty first goal in that match, but the second was unbelievable.

"Orr....behind the net to Sanderson....back to Orr--SCOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRE!!! Bobby Orr!! And the Boston Bruins have won the Stanley Cup...."

Now that the Sox have lifted the Curse, the Bruins are on the clock (ever notice they never won a cup after they TRADED BOBBY FREAKING ORR TO CHICAGO?).

MATTEU! MATTEU! MATTEU! AND THE RANGERS HAVE ONE MORE HILL TO CLIMB, BABY!

Actually, "Matteau!" came to mind even before Orr, but I didn't post it because:

--I'm a B's fan;
--I didn't want to wrestle with the spelling of Matteau.

(Speaking of wrestling, "The Isle of Malta" got an LOL out of me. I worked at Arby's when I was in high school, and couldn't drink a Jamocha shake without thinking, "...from the Isle of Jamocha...")

As a Bruins fan (but not a big hockey fan since the '80's), this goal isn't quite up there as great because the Bruins swept the Stanley Cup Finals that year.

Trading Orr was no big deal. His knee was hamburger by then. It's sad. But, not a big deal.

i think along with the "if you make a post about a female, we need pictures" rule, we should have a "if you make a post about something amazing, we need video footage" rule.

Here's video of him scoring when playing for my Sevilla

I just found an excellent site with video of tons of excellent goals. It's actually a fifa website, just go to www.fifaworldcup.com. Here's a link to video of the 50 best goals in world cup history.

That's a sweet site.

I like the one Rivelino goal where the guy on his own team gets into the wall, he kicks it straight at him and he falls out of the way to let it through. Sick.

Gazza's freekick against Arsenal in the 1991 semi final of the fa cup. Or Glenn Hoddle's goal against Cambridge, in about 1986 when he ran through the whole defence barely even touching the ball; pure intelligence.
