      Yeah clips would've been much better if context was added. Most of those were decisive goals scored in crucial times, sometimes with backstories stretching back decades, like the Iniesta winner in the World Cup final at 3:44.
      Holland and Spain were the two biggest footballing nations not to win the World Cup at that point. Iniesta's goal meant Spain won their first ever WC, kick starting a successful era for them. Earlier in the game, Arjen Robben had a gilt edge chance that he missed for Holland that could've won them the trophy. It was a very costly miss.
      So as fate would have it 4 years later, at the next World Cup, Spain and Holland faced each other in their opening games for that tournament. That's where at 4:52 comes in. Robben scored the 5th goal in a 5-1 trashing of the defending champions to top off a brilliant performance that day.

There were several legends of the game playing in Milan and they were heavy favorites to win the match so for Liverpool, a team that finished 5th in the premier league that season with a not so great team to come back after being down 3-0 in halftime is probably the greatest comeback in football history.

      Soccer is simple, every kid can learn rules in 5 minutes, and you can play it with any number of people.

NFL/NBA games aren't anywhere near the same as college because the passion the fans have for their universities are so much better than proffessional sports.

    To give more context:
    That was a World Cup semi-final, in France.
    France was down 0-1.
    Lilian Thuram was a defender, he’s not supposed to score much.
    But there’s an interesting fact which made that moment very special:
    Thuram is actually the man who has played the most games under the french national jersey in history (142 games in total, a record for his country).
    In 142 games played for France, he only ever scored 2 goals.
    Just 2.
    Both of these goals, he scored in the very semi-final that is displayed in the video.
    Making his country go from 0-1 to 2-1 in the span of a few minutes.
    For the record, he was the one who gave away the goal to the Croatian team in the first place, that came from a mistake he made.
    Thuram, by himself, qualified his country, and France ended up winning the whole tournament.
    His only 2 goals in his 142 international games/15 year carrer.
    Sometimes, it just takes one game, just a few minutes, to become a legend.

    As an Englishman who’s love for football has been for all my life I gotta say that video got me close to tears as silly as it sounds- it’s not just a sport, it’s hope, it’s to celebrate something when you’ve got nothing to be happy about in your day to day life, it’s something to look forward to and more often then not get angry about but that makes the joyous times even more special. Hard to understand for people that don’t like the game but it’s just beautiful to be captivated in it.

    Chicagoan here: never too interested in sports in general as a youth, but I went to high school with a lot of Bosnians and Mexicans who were really excited about the game they played here prior to the w014 World Cup. I decided to ask around and started kicking around with some friends and loved it. Watching that year’s World Cup was astonishing - and having a pitch right around the corner was a real blessing. Been in love ever since. Watched a good amount of these moments live on TV - especially in public at bars and parties - and you’re all just screaming and stunned, having witnessed magic. Even though it all already looks so impressive, once you play and can try to conceptualize the real difficulty and rarity of such goals, especially in-game - it’s truly astonishing.
    Beautiful game, indeed.

Roads where basically full of car convoys.. people on their car roofs with horns and flags, bengalos and whatever you need to celebrate. Noise levels were crazy even long after the match. I loved it.

    I'm Brazillian, so I guess I can talk a little about football. Football is such a great sport, it touches so many people. It doesn't matter what you're doing, or what team you cheer, but in a world cup everyone comes together to watch your national team play. In Brazil we have this culture, since we are little kids, you play football and most of the time your dream is to become a professional. I had the opportunity to go to stadiums here where I live, and is simply amazing. Even when games finish 0-0, you have the feeling that something good was taken from it. We have a lot of legendary games here, I recommend to anyone reading this, Botafogo X Santos final da Taça Brasil (Both teams were the base for Brazil first three world cup win, and they played the final of a Brazilian cup in the late 60'). The other game I suggest is Santos x Flamengo (Ronaldinho x Neymar) Ronaldinho that day, made it rain, it was unbelievable

      @@thequietman760 For EtS guys, this insult (bin dippers) comes from the 80s when Thatcher's Tory government brutalised working class communities. It hit Liverpool especially hard, with record breaking numbers of people having to leave their homes to move elsewhere where there were more job opportunities.
      Liverpudlians really fell on hard times and became some of the poorest people in England. As a result of their poverty, and children going hungry, Mancs went the classy route of declaring Liverpudlians (scousers) as "bin dippers", insinuating that's how they got their food...digging through garbage.
      So, the supposed "bin dippers" insult is a great example of an insult saying more about the user than the perceived victim.
      Mancs, using working class poverty and hungry children as something to mock and laugh at.
      Ironically, Liverpool is doing well for itself nowadays, and is economically better off than Manchester, was Europe's first Capital of Culture, and has lower crime statistics than Manchester, but Mancs being a little slower than most other people, still cling on to a 40 year old insult which is as outdated as their city.
      One day they'll realise that saying "bin dippers" only backfires on them and leaves everybody laughing at their expense.

    My nephew fell in love with the game and has lived it and breathed it his whole live. At 13 he’s been asked to try out for a professional team’s reserve team with plans to keep him on until he’s old enough to play for their main team. Southampton to be exact. He hopes to do it and dreams to play for Leicester City one day. He is known by the team as an avid fan with Hamza Choudry even being a friend of his! He even drove to his house (my sister’s place) to drop his old training shoes complete with autographs to inspire him!

Idk how's in other countries, but most jobs here (Argentina) set up TVs or monitors so you can watch the worldcup while on the clock. We were doumbfounded. Brazil and Argentina have always had this rivalry in football, so at first it was like, lol Brazil's losing! But after the 4th goal we were like, dude enough. Just...leave them be...pass the ball to kill time or sth. It sucked to watch that.

    Guys - every sport at the highest level is amazing!!! The thing about football/soccer is that it is the ultimate global sport. Everyone plays it, so the quality at the highest level is insane. The video you watched had some terrific goals, but they were mostly solo goals, or really memorable goals because of their context (lots of the goals in that video were from World Cups). Check out some videos about team/passing goals. That is when the sport truly starts to become sublime.

For the top tier players, it’s crazy how a single man can have the support of an entire country or entire cities or regions of a country, the support of all age groups, young and old. They’re looked up to by tens, if not hundreds of millions of people who see these players as their heroes, and it’s no wonder they’re treated as such.

    You showed the Aguerooooo moment and commented on it's significance. I was at that match, and it might surprise you to hear that, as a lifelong City fan, it was far from my wildest celebration. Reasons: a) it was just too much to take in, I felt like I was having an out-of-body experience looking in on myself, and b) I was convinced that the opposition, QPR, would march straight back down the pitch from the kick-off and equalise. Just bigger celebrations pour moi came with our FA Cup winner the previous season and last May when we came from 2-0 down to win 3-2. Also you mention Greece winning the Euros at 150-1. At the start of the '15/'16 Prem season which Leicester won, you could have bet on them at 5,000-1. That turned out to be a tenner worth laying down. Re your not liking due to being forced, I was made to do Shakespeare at school. My American wife utterly adores him but he leaves me colder than an Icelandic streaker.
