Saeed Al-Owairan sprinting across the field to score the unforgettable goal against Belgium in 1994. Saudi Arabia advanced to the second round that year in their first time qualifying for the tournament.

I think it compares to Maradona's in 1986. (technique, not implications and situation of play)

Running past that many players should be done more often in the modern game. Too much long passing get's booring.

This, is better :)

This truly was amazing.

Funniest thing is my Dad supports Tottenham, me Arsenal, we were both watching it :)

That cross was beautifully placed in the second video. I don't think many goalkeepers would've been able to get that.

There are so many goals I can think of that should be in this thread. Top class volleys, bicycles, free-kicks, half-field lobs and just magnificent strikes.

nice, very nice. there should be a soccer thread.

[Phaded]

I think Giggsy's goal vs Arsenal in the FA Cup final was one of the greats, up the Welsh!.

:lol: I was joking, was a bit of strange choice, thought you might of trying to have a dig at England :)

This is probably the best volley goal I have seen : Marco Van Basten in the European Cup of 1988 .

Ain't you a pare of geezers. I'm suprised you haven't stabbed each other yet.

That goal is almost an exact replica of the Maradonna goal against England everyone remembers (not the hand of god one), it's uncanny.
