This is the correct answer.Carlos Alberto.
The James Rodriguez thread got me thinking.
What's the best WC goal you can remember?
GVB against Uruguay takes some beating for me
Greatest goal by the greatest player of all timeShould be a fairly obvious answer, Maradona’s solo effort against England.
Greatest goal of all time.
I think thats the only goal ive ever seen in a pub of neutrals where every single person applauded it.
3 or 4 bits of skill exist within that one goal, its remarkable. I went straight down the pitch after and we were all trying it.For me it's Rodriguez. I genuinely think that goal is underrated. Didn't Van Persie's header win best goal at that world cup?
Outrageous. Just look at Rodriguez's goal. It's perfection.
Love that goal.

Played mid afternoon in boiling temperatures at 6k ft altitude may just be a reason . It,s an iconic goal, and one of the best.Take your pic between maradonna, Bergkamp or the one scored by Argentina ( maybe cambiasso). Controversial I know but never seen the fuss about Carlos Alberto goal. Looks like a training match where the opposition have been told not to bother trying to tackle
I'm sure he won a ferrari or something for that.Saeed Owairan for Saudi Arabia against Belgium in USA 94. Even better than Maradona’s against England. Best ever. End thread.
Stunning goalThe James Rodriguez thread got me thinking.

Immediately into my head is Bergkamp vs the argies.The James Rodriguez thread got me thinking.

It was a great goal,with brilliant players involved, but as you say,it was almost at walking pace.Take your pic between maradonna, Bergkamp or the one scored by Argentina ( maybe cambiasso). Controversial I know but never seen the fuss about Carlos Alberto goal. Looks like a training match where the opposition have been told not to bother trying to tackle
Oh mate!!Andrés Escobar own goal Colombia vs USA 1994 WC, it was a killer
Having seen that goal, it has to be that. The lay off is sublime.Carlos Alberto.

I was 8 years old,I was hypnotised,Santos were my team,tho that was only reading about them ,never having seen them play.Tostao the centre forward starts the move by winning the ball back in the left back position.
You actually have to view this goal as the culmination,not only of the game, but of the way Brazil played throughout the tournament. The greatest World Cup Finals ever.
I was thirteen at the time and obsessed with Rangers and all things football. The Brazil of 1970 enchanted and mesmerised not only me, but every football fan.
To be fair, there was a shit goalkeeper for four of thoseThe Brazilian side of 82 scored some sublime efforts.
Other way about and id agree. Holland were one of the best teams at the timeMaradona then Archie Gemmil’s. Think Archie,s it was voted the best of all time before Maradona came along and took the title
End thread. Good night allCarlos Alberto.
