Watch all 56 UEFA Champions League goals scored by the incredible Ruud van Nistelrooy. Who is your favourite centre-forward in #UCL history? -- Watch More: www.uefa.tv Learn More: www.uefa.com
The tight angle goal against basel away will always stick in my mind with ruud. Undoubtedly one of the greatest strikers to have ever wear the united shirt.
The best centre forward I've ever seen in my life. Never switched off always first to react to a save a deflection a rebound. Always in the right place for a pass or cross. Always seemed to have space in the box and had the skill to make space. First touch was excellent second touch was usually a goal. His off the ball running was as relentless as it was intelligent and the only thing quicker over 10 yards was his brain. The way he could dig the ball out from under his feet and get a sweet contact is underrated the way he could chip the keeper from 10 yards is too. Never scuffed or miss hit a shot he was surgical with his finishing and he would go in 50/50 with his head. As a striker he was pure devastation. 🔥
His chest control skill was underrated. When people talked about Ruud they talk about his positioning and his finishing but rarely say anything about chest control who was as good as Fellaini.
The best goalscorer I've ever witnessed! Ruud have all these insane records and he had some serious injuries, my fav player,if he stayed in utd he would've been the record holder! He scored 150 goals in 5 seasons "i should say 4 cuz he missed 5 months on one of them" i wished he won the ucl thats why i wanted him to stay at utd.. thank you for this vid!
We should have won the 2004 ucl if not for Howard's blunder and scholesy disallowed goal ruined that dream. Its a bit of travesty that ruud didn't win many more honours with us. The guy deserve so much more after all the goals he scored for us.
@@afiq358 i completely agree! 2004 was for the taking! Paul's disallowed goal changed everything unfortunately.. i truly believed we would win it, ruud didn't come in our absolute best but in our transition period, thats why i wished he stayed till 2010 at least he would've won much more
@@footballchannel8430 Milan defeated by Deportivo and Arsenal defeated by Chelsea that season. If man united won against Porto, their next campaign is Lyon, Deportivo, and Monaco. Way better route than Monaco who defeat Madrid and Chelsea that season
Beckham was obviously a great passer but that doesn't mean you just give him credit for anything, you know that wasn't intentional he didn't even know the ball went to him lol
Remember watching goal 24 on a small philips TV with the aerial on top of the TV, trying to get as good as picture as possible from all the static.. how things have changed
Ruud's heading ability is so underrated and never discussed much. The amount of power he could generate on a ball that had hardly any pace on it (and many times was just a chip up) was astonishing. Most other strikers would barely reach the keeper with some of those efforts, never mind land it in the net.
van Nistelrooy had everything you wanted as a striker. PSV had many great strikers in the passed, like the two Brazilian mega stars Ronaldo fenomeno and of-course Romario. And for the Dutchies of-course Luc Nillisen :)
Initially, there was report stated most goals from Ruud Van Nistelrooy were scored in penalty area is a kind of mocking, now I know that it wasn't easy especially when compare to most strikers nowaday.
7:017:13 ELE ENCOBRIU O GOLEIRO, COM UM TOQUE, COM A PONTA DO PÉ VIRADO PRA CIMA, DE 1°, & QUE, VEIO DE UM LONGO LANÇAMENTO, VEIO DE UM GRANDE CRUZAMENTO!
And to think VAR would have scratched off half of those goals for marginal offside, high boot/dangerous play, foul in the build up etc. Honestly VAR is such a disease, impossible to celebrate a goal until kick off of the opposing team in the centre circle.
looking at how he played in 98/99 , he was good enough to be in uniteds squad then and start I wished united kept him for a few more years , left to early in my opinion
Ruud was my childhood hero! 3 times CL top scorer. Absolutely lethal!
I only really followed him with Man U. Loved his style with that transitional misfit team. Didn't realize he scored so many CL goals.
The tight angle goal against basel away will always stick in my mind with ruud.
Undoubtedly one of the greatest strikers to have ever wear the united shirt.
Most clinical striker man united ever had.
Funny that he is not the most clinical striker PSV ever had :))
💯
Most clinical striker in football history
@@badsolja1 No. See Romario.
Cr7
Ruud Van Nistelrooy vs Thierry Henry, they are both of beauty EPL 2001-2006 the best striker!
I'm a Man U fan and loved RVN, but I have to admit the better all round player was Henry. Pure finishing perhaps RVN sneaks it...but that's about it.
Sheva!!
@@richfh8456 x2 as man utd fan. henry was better dribbler, free kick taker and passer. RVN also didn't have much long shots
@@user-ee5tp3of7k Shevchenko ?
@@sww3679 for me Van Nistelrooy still miles above even CR7 2022.

His penalties 😍 I love the way he just smashes them with such accuracy
And always to his left besides number 39, if you noticed
One of the best strikers in the world during his peak years. He makes finishing look easy. Loved him at United.
What a striker and that Ruud Van Nistelrooy jersey with no. 10 😍
Lies again? Dutch Master
His first 2 season at United, he was lethal ! Team playing style really suit him, when Becks left and Ronaldo came, Ruud became less effective
What a player
The first goal perfectly explains why he's my favourite striker of all time (with Ronaldo de Lima). So fast, so on time, so calm. Pure magic.
His chest control skill was underrated. When people talked about Ruud they talk about his positioning and his finishing but rarely say anything about chest control who was as good as Fellaini.
you don't see that much these days, good chest control. most will just use their feet to control the ball
dont compare rvd to that clown
Lehmann always had the best chest control. Alisha that is
Van The Man! Van Gol! ⚽🔥
My most favorite player, even until now i think MU need CF like him, fast, hard, and precision, very spectacular.
Goal number 10 ...
most one of difficult position and he finishing with beautiful goal
7:05 Simply legendary!
A true Striker. Always look spectacular If he Scores. One of the best Strikers in History
What a beast
Idk why i love every his penalty taken

@@Lloydo111 no chance, arsenal and milan were way better than man united during this season
@@footballchannel8430 man utd didn't need to face arsenal or milan if they won against porto???
@@footballchannel8430 Milan defeated by Deportivo and Arsenal defeated by Chelsea that season. If man united won against Porto, their next campaign is Lyon, Deportivo, and Monaco. Way better route than Monaco who defeat Madrid and Chelsea that season
he had incredible vision of the field + awesome positional skills ! Great player ! tnx Ruud !
a true legend of Man U!
That no look pass of David Beckham at goal number 10 is higly underrated.
Beckham was obviously a great passer but that doesn't mean you just give him credit for anything, you know that wasn't intentional he didn't even know the ball went to him lol
Always a goal threat
He literally had the perfect skill as a striker.. so clean finishing
Nistelrooy was one of the most lethal strikers ever, when he gets the ball in the box you know he will find the back of the net.
The Goal Machine
What a striker and what a time that was... 👏👏👏
Next... Andry Shevchenko please !!!
That no look hip pass by Beckham was so genius.
Barthez and Wes Brown though smh. Fun but stressful game.
at 2:27 ... it's brilliant...
😆
Best finisher ever
What goal machine Ruud was....
Best United striker this century
Remember watching goal 24 on a small philips TV with the aerial on top of the TV, trying to get as good as picture as possible from all the static.. how things have changed
Siempre un fenómeno Ruud
For me, he is the most intelligent striker
LEGENDARYYYYYYYY ... Ruud van GOaaallllll
Van Goal
*The best finisher in history. One of the best striker of all time.*
Nah, R9 is a better finisher than him
@@user-jn4mh1rh9l you have a great understanding of game really mate you are actually very right
@@wakaikozy6084 no. you have never seen Ruud play then.
Greeting Dutch player 🇳🇱🇳🇱. Good luck for the match of tommorow agaist the Rangers Glasgow
A legend
Meu melhor centro avante de todos os tempos 🇳🇱🙆♂️👏👏👏👏
Great player. He was absolutely fantastic and very strong.
Was always in the right place at the right time

Great point, his heading technique was superb...
Not only that, but so was his dribbling.
one of the best to ever do it
Next please make Henry and Raul it’s good for us young generations to see what they were about
I agree Raùl was so good in CL.
That lob goal against Steaua was great
Both Nistelrooy and Henry are equally awesome!
3:13 Kahn went for the knee injury here, knowing of Ruud's past
van Nistelrooy had everything you wanted as a striker. PSV had many great strikers in the passed, like the two Brazilian mega stars Ronaldo fenomeno and of-course Romario. And for the Dutchies of-course Luc Nillisen :)
Luc was Belgian though right?
One of the best
LEGENDE RUUD VANISTEL ROOY MANCHESTER UNITED
لايوجد مهاجم بهذه الكفاءة العالية والدقة رود فان نيستلروي أفضل مهاجم في كل العصور على الإطلاق
11:16 the look on his face as he jumps to head in for the hattrick...the man lived to score goals 🫡
Ruud Ruud Ruud Ruud..

MENTIRA QUE ELE FEZ ISSO!
ruud ruud ruud ruud

ELE ENCOBRIU O GOLEIRO, COM UM TOQUE, COM A PONTA DO PÉ VIRADO PRA CIMA, DE 1°, & QUE, VEIO DE UM LONGO LANÇAMENTO, VEIO DE UM GRANDE CRUZAMENTO!
An absolute legend. The best striker of his generation. Definitely more skilled than Shevchenko
This guy 🔥
The good old days when 9s were raw goal poachers.
one of the best!
What a hardcore player for Manchester United.
Era pemain tahun 2000 an top Markotop 👍😁
Not only he was one of the best strikers ever, but also built like a tank, possessed great dribble and vision of the game
The Man United USA tour of 2003 Summer had some of his most deadly swivel/ shoot goals
nistelroooooyyy
And to think VAR would have scratched off half of those goals for marginal offside, high boot/dangerous play, foul in the build up etc. Honestly VAR is such a disease, impossible to celebrate a goal until kick off of the opposing team in the centre circle.
THANKS
Goal nr 8 by 2 legends.
Ruud was great but Luc was special.
A legendary striker from the good old days
6:10 6:28
SEM ÂNGULO! SEM VISÃO! & SEM ESPAÇO!
the first players are all neat
One of the best strikers in Premier League history
I love Ruud, A GOD STRIKER
looking at how he played in 98/99 , he was good enough to be in uniteds squad then and start
I wished united kept him for a few more years , left to early in my opinion
Amazing
Criminally underrated, when he was through you didn't even have to question where the ball would end up
Only an idiot would say he's underrated.
What's next? Shearer is underrated?
Love U Ruud❤️❤️❤️
The fact he’s my favorite striker of all time at Utd says it all
Great non annoying music
Ruud over Haaland any day for me.
Class 🙌
RRRRRRRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUD YEAH LOVE THAT SOUND
2:36 2:47
O CARA TENTOU DERRUBAR, & PARAR ELE, NÃO CONSEGUIU, NÃO!
How I wish I could go back 4/11/1998
9:43 9:52
ELE IA PERDER A BOLA! ENTÃO, ELE DOMINOU, CORTOU, & TIROU NO AR!
the best no 9 ever, inzhagi next level
1-июля 1976-года в Голландии родились два прекрасных нападающих: Рууд ван Нистелрой и Патрик Клюйверт.
van the man 4ever👍🏻👍🏻🍀🍀🌟🌟
Is True Striker. Amazing Ruud.
