Part of what's crazy about the one that starts at 3:41 is that it's the goalkeeper scoring for his team. Bicycle kicks aren't exactly common goalkeeper fare.
@@lukessportsacademy Had a good laugh over it, honestly, you trying to divine whether it's because he's doing it with his non-dominant foot, when he's all clad in purple and wearing big gloves, haha.
That move wasn't really unsportsmanlike. You can't score directly from a thrown in and need to pass (not to yourself). The only thing he could have done is either wait for his teammates and ruin the chance, or do what he did: bounce the ball off the goalkeeper which counts as a pass and keep playing.
It was tactical brilliance. No you do not need to pass it. Where is that stated? You need to make a legal throw which is both feet touching the ground on or behind the touch line and have it go over your head with both hands on the ball and forward projection of the ball, as a drop from over your head with very little forward trajectory is illegal. And what do you mean make a pass? So if the throw is long and a defensive player touches it first would this constitute a re throw or an illegal throw awarding the throw to the other team? As a pass didn't occur only a pass attempt. So I don't think you understand what the rule is or are misusing language in your definition. It needs to touch a non throwing player 3 yards or steps from the touch line. Most don't know that either. As a corner or free kick requires 10 yards of space a throw in requires 3 yards. There is a highlight I've seen of a player walking away from a throw pointing like directing others and once he reached that three yard mark with his back turned to the player throwing it in the thrower threw it off his back and retained possession. This was a practiced and legal throw the team had done before in training obviously and it didn't break rules. It highlights the creativity people can implement while playing this game with great knowledge of the rules and how to take advantage of the lack of ambiguity in clearly worded phrasing of fifa laws. While some don't like it I love it as literal and accurate use of language in rules is entirely 100% definable. When interpretation of rules is a notion that brings problem, there shouldn't be interpretation when having a full comprehension of what is being read. Therefore there shouldn't be as many perspectives as occur when interpreting a dead ball situation. There aren't perspectives. The rules just are when talking about dead ball situations.
3:57 I've seen you look at this a couple of times. This is (the comment FA can correct me) one of if not the greatest one-on-one moves in football history. The softness of the touch, the swiftness of the body twist. It's perfect in a strictly "Bergkamp" sense, which is an entirely different Tifo video in of itself ;) The "elegance" of this move is the key, for me. Bergkamp performed this like a noble born football deity. We have tried to replicate the move in our "casual kicking time" on the neighborhood pitch for decades and I've never seen it been done, nevermind in a scenario with willful defenders. (You can DO a bicycle kick in training, but you can't do that touch. 🙂) All I want to emphasize, is that that single move, is something special, in a way that's difficult to discribe to a football beginner but I know you will understand the beauty of this. Like I said difficult to explain :D Love your videos! Keep up the passion!!

Yep, absolutely correct a goal isn’t “a score”. You say a person “scored” in past tense, or “should/might/could score” but the end result is “a goal”. If you were praising a goal you’d say “what a goal” or “what a shot” you’d never say “what a score” because it makes no sense other than Argentina v France being 3-3 that’s an impressive “score” for a final Score and scoring is basically used as a verb it’s a doing word and never the end result. Basically “Goal” is also used as a term that encompasses the whole phases of play resulting in the ball being in the net. As an example if you had a highlight reel you are looking at the best goal/goals and never the best score/scores.

9:40 by the rules of the game you cant score from a throw-in and you cant throw the ball to yourself. The guy used the opponents player to gain possession and scored. As for where the goalkeeper was - the guy he bounced the ball off was the goalkeeper who previously tried to sweep a counter
No. It is perfectly legal. It is uncommon for sure but nothing illegal occurred. He didn't throw it to himself. Another player touched it. At that moment it is regular play and props to the guy for the intelligence and his reactions to capitalize on a very unique circumstance

1:10 one of the best golas by zidane, one of the best midfielders ever 2:26 thats zlatan too, he is a beast. He does judo, is a big guy and athletic af. Check him out, he has some amazing goals. 3:41 if you watch closely the guy that scored the bycycle goal was the goalkeeper in the last seconds of the game 4:02 thats not beckham. Its Bergkamp, one of the greats of the past 6:01 this is not your regular header, look at the height ronaldo gains on his jump. Look where his opponent is 6:19 100% intentional. Non professionals could do these intentional, but beeing able to pull this off in a professional game is kinda special, plus the distance is great. 6:35 Quaresma also definetly worth a video, he was a spectacular Player 8:20 he took him offguard, because he just set a step back and shot without running up at all.
the last Goal was from the Brazilian player Roberto Carlos. I saw that goal live on Tv and i was jaw dropped speacheless for around 10 mins, while they played the replay again and again. LOL
I was about to suggest the Dean Saunders one from the cheeky throw in, I was pleasantly surprised to see it included. I'd recommend looking at Kemar Roofes goal for Rangers. Scoring from the halfway line is pretty rare, but I've never seen it done after a dribble first.
In British English, “score” is only used as a noun when referring to the number of goals each team has at any point during the game. “The score is 2-0”. It is usually used as a verb. “He just scored a great goal”.
5:30 he caught the keeper of guard. lightning fast counter play. he didn't even have time to get back into his net. goalkeeper tend to stay pretty high when the team is in possession and pressing on.
It's interesting seeing somebody who is at the start of their football journey but a place where they can verbally fully articulate what they are seeing compared to me and my friends playing when we were kids and just subconsciously noticing and picking up things that work and that don't work and not being able to verbally explain things. Also it's interesting how you're impressed with the control and dribbling the most as it's something you are finding difficult. When you get the hand of that, striking the balls is the next focus and I'll be interested to see how you do with that.
Hey Luke, I accidentally found your channel, and you are one of few Americans who truly wants to know football. As someone who has been watching this sport for more than 10 years, I have seen one unmatchable masterpiece called “Messi vs Ronaldo The Golden Rivalry”. After this video you will fall in love with football, and you will truly understand that they had the greatest rivalry in the history of all sports. Watch it!
Only if you played football you can understand how magical that Bergkamp goal is, what skill and touch is necessary to do that on a first touch and score
As a football (soccer) coach myself, I can tell you some of the best goals here from a technical perspective are the least “spectacular”, many are what we refer to as hit and hopes. The best goals here are Bergkamp v Newcastle as the first touch seems to defy the laws of physics, the Zidane volley in the CL final as the ball is actually behind him when he volleys it forward, the Ronaldo and Van Persie headers and the fact the Tony Yabboa goal (the second one, with all the headers) travels the entire lenght of the pitch with 6 passes without the ball touching the floor once and each player only touching the ball once. My favourite is the Aaron Ramsey team goal
Just use 'score' as a verb and you won't go wrong. We don't say, "He did a score". Only use score as a noun when talking about the result. "What's the score?", "The score was 2-1". It'd be like someone watching American Football and saying something like "He played a Touchdown". I'm sure it would just sound weird to you.
Gotcha, we use score as a noun a lot in American football. I grew up hearing announcers say things like “What a score by Manning!!” “What an excellent score by _____.”
@@lukessportsacademy Understood. In that context you just replace 'score' with 'goal'. Or you could use other terms like shot, strike etc. But never score. We only use that word as explained previously. But keep up the great work.
Did you notice one of the bicycle kicks was scored by the goalkeeper. HAPPY NEW YEAR. For to curl the ball outwards hit it with the outside of the foot, to curl it inside hit the ball on the instep of the foot. To hit it straightish top of the foot, never hit a ball with the toe end of the boot.it takes a lot of practice, definitely not easy for someone just starting to play. In England for a lot of us, the first birthday or Christmas present we got was a football, and we played football ⚽️ every day, as soon as we could walk. I was in my 20s when I stopped playing. Knee knackered.
The Roberto Carlos free kick needs a bit more of a reaction, probably the greatest free kick of all time, it almost defied the laws of physics. I think you kind of skimmed over it a little ! 🤣
Van persie goal for Netherlands is a classic he scores a super man diving header. From a long pass. Then after the world cup he latches onto a long pass to score a nuts half volley for United.
11:05 if you're right footed, try hitting the ball with the inside of your foot to the right side of the ball. Or with the tip of your foot/toe to the right side of the ball to give it a spin and enough power so it flies and while its spinning it curves in the air
Bro, i would like to see you take a couple of shots from the outside of the box to see if you hit the crossbar. In my opinion thats the most fun way to hit a ball at the goal. It feels so good.
The goals I most remember aren't those of any single striker or off an impossible move but the cluster of them that came with Brazil's complete collapse against Germany in the 2014 World Cup.
Many goals you didn’t notice where the goalkeeper is the goalkeeper has gloves and different shirt. Like the goal where goalie scores and some more when the goalie is out
Just gotta kick the ball with side spin on it either using inside or outside of your foot. Kind of hard to perfect but when you get it you get it. I prefer outside of my foot to slice the ball as opposed to hooking it with the inside of my foot. I was a forward until I went into high school and could already curve the ball easily then I got turned into a 4 year Varsity Starting Goalie and All-State Goalie my Senior Year but was also the #1 Penalty Taker just couldn't take them in the game just in case, but a shoot-out would have me shooting first.
On the throw in that was the goalkeeper. Also on the one bicycle kick where the player had a different colored uniform than everyone else, that was the goalkeeper. He came up for the final play of the game and scored a bicycle kick.
Ibrahimovic can open a bottle like 20 oz soda using a backheel roundhouse kick. Not sure if he does it with his toes or the bottom of his foot. But that is a such a unique skill. You have to see that
@1:41 Not sure how to timestamp. This goal by Papiss Cisse is likely one of the most improbable goals ever scored. The angle of trajectory and outside curve taking it away from goal as well as Cech's decent position and world class ability make his target so small and near impossible. Coupled with how fast he had to react or how little time he had to actually make that choice, showcased how in form he was at that moment of time. He was on a tear if many don't remember. But as stated just one of the most improbable finishes of all time. It was one of my favorites of all time. I'm very surprised many don't enjoy or appreciate it as much as it deserves. One of the best goals ever. Just the confidence to attempt and reaction time required could only be made by a player in top form. It was truly special
@@Eliaso79 Awesome. I knew there would be a few others that understood and admired what a goal it was. I'd had no idea how to find it after years and years of searching. I think i related it to cisse and chelsea as opposed to Newcastle, then it appeared on the Premier League goals of the decade for last decade obviously. When that came out I literally watched it about 40 times that day
you were surprised by goalkeepers scoring goals, while not UNHEARD OF it is pretty rare these days, you should react to José Luis Chilavert ((Paraguayan GK who for a LONG time played in a team here in Argentina and has scored from his own goal to the other side)), and René Higuita ((Colombian GK who usually would come out of his area and act as a regular player even scoring goals from Free Kicks ))
The physics of the curving ball has always fascinated me (since I discovered the game as a teenager 45yrs ago). It's mostly about the rotation, but a soccer ball also has seams - like a baseball. Shots/passes that move like that are like pitching a curve or slider with your *foot*! It's tough to do. I can back-heel, I can toe poke, I can chip with my inside arch, but I still can't '..bend it like Beckham..'. 🤣Did I see in one of your thumbnails that you picked up a Dallas T-shirt? Welcome aboard! MLS isn't the top league in the world - but it's *ours*. And we're getting better. Greetings from Atlanta. I don't know if we play each other this year or not..in MLS you play everybody in your own conference twice (home/away), but only half the other conference every other year. I'll crack one open for ya next time I see FC Dallas on TV!
On football manager game I created MLS like europe structure its way better, are there any plans to change the competition? one big flaw is that there is no promotion and relegation system. A soccer team needs time to develop over years and with the current system its more like every year anybody can win the league. I understand the benefit from that but long term you can't really grow. I guess the distance is to big to make it a normal competition with 20 teams and 3 that can relegate. Long term the teams will start improving and take that draft system away.
@@diazclemenza3591 , I think one of the problems here is that in the US, folks don't think of their local clubs as *institutions* yet. Everywhere else I've been in the world, even in the smallest towns the locals will say "..this is our fire department, this is our school, and this is our football club!" Nothing like that exists here (I hope it will one day!!). I also think promotion/regulation would be good for improving the quality of play in the US, but getting into first division (MLS) here is *expensive*. The league wants millions of dollars to grant a franchise to a club, and even then- if there's no plan to spend millions more on a new stadium, you're denied. These business people who invest in these clubs & stadiums will not allow relegation at any cost. To them, it's not about the game, it's about the money. They know most American supporters are not particularly passionate, they just want the 'big league' matchday experience. I''m sure you've seen Atlanta games in videos with anywhere from 45,000 to 70,000 fans. If we were relegated, about 20,000 of us would stay, and everyone else would just drive to Charlotte (3 1/2hrs) or Nashville (4-5hrs) and support them instead. The owners here will not even talk about pro/rel. Not yet, anyway. Maybe my grandchildren will see it! 😅
Anyone who has time on their hands to criticise someone saying scored clearly needs a new hobby. If you'd said soccer now that's a different story :D Only kidding, as long as you enjoy the sport then just ignore the trolls.
If you wonna see a strange curve on a free kick, watch Ronaldos and Juninhos free kicks. They go left and then right and vice versa, crazy and undefendable
Those massive curves are "easy" to achieve (but not to aim), just hit the ball with your 3 littler toes, the outer side of your foot. That creates the rotation needed for the ball to curve like that, but again, to be able to aim it like that, that's skill and talent
Btw, don't be bothered by what others think of the term 'scoring a goal'. It is correct. Football is embracing of all terminology, naming, etc. The love for the game is what matters.
A bit of a tip for you. If you want to learn how to use your none dominant foot, all you need is a tenis ball and a smallish wall. Then you start kicking the tenis ball against the wall, but every kick has to be with a different foot, then slowly over time just with the none dominant foot one kick with the inside and the next with the outside of the foot. OK you'll it will never be as good as your dominant foot, but you will not be scared of using it, because you will have learnt how to control the ball with it. And if you teach it to young kids, you'll be suprised at how quickly they adapt to it.
Funny thing: Salah actually scored another pretty similar goal to the one he scored at 1:21 like 4 years later against RB Salzburg in the Champions League.
Fun Fact: Zidane made the goal (1:10) in the 2002 Champions League final against Leverkusen. Bayer finished 2nd in all 3 competitions (Bundesliga, DFB Cup and Champions League) that year, which earned the club the nickname "Vizekusen" for some time after three 2nd places in the previous five years in the Bundesliga without ever having won the championship. To make matters worse, 5 Bayer players (Ballack, Schneider, Ramelow, Neuville and Butt) were part of the German team that lost the World Cup final against Brazil in the same year.
Also, don't worry about saying soccer, here in Ireland we say soccer sometimes as we have our own football, gaelic football. Maybe check it out. It's kinda like soccer and rugby combined. We call it 'gaelic' for short too and then football - football, but some would call them Football and Soccer. Confusing I know :D at least both often use the foot compared to American Football :P
Born and raised in England and everyone I know uses the word score. You can even shout SCORE! When they score. Don't let people dictate your language (Unless you're calling it soccer lol) Get Fifa 23, it's pretty fun. You'll learn waaay more about football by playing Fifa, trust
Don't worry, people who are talented at playing football generally start between the ages of 3-5 and practice with the ball for at least a few hours every day up until they get selected for a professional team or even remain as an amateur. Besides all the organised club and representative stuff I was involved in, I used to kick around with my brother after school until the sun went down most days. There is skill involved in all sports, but some more than others. I have a problem with sports that over emphasise height, running speed etc. Within football there is a place for anyone who is dedicated, but athletic stats aren't or should not be the be all and end all. Usain Bolt wanted to be a footballer all his life and when he retired he tried out at a few clubs around the world. His last stop was the Central Coast Mariners in the Australian League. Despite being the fastest man alive, having some decent football skills and a passion for the sport, and the media attention and advertising that would support the deal, his trial was not successful at the club. The game seems simple, but goals are rare, possession is king, tactics and quick thinking are important. With so many people playing the game throughout the world and the rewards that flow from it, there is such a range of talent in this game and it takes a lot to make it to the top.
Use a tennis ball to practice - kick it against a wall and then work to trap and control the rebound ready for the next pass/shot. Just like your jab is king in boxing, your first touch control is everything in football. (Don't really need pace or athleticism, check out the old premier league player Matt Le Tissier for proof...) (That said, I was only ever a centre back; heading was more my practice drill...)
You really gotta vlog the first time you attend an FC Dallas home game. The atmosphere ain't really the best over there (the stadium's always half empty), but you're gonna have fun!
If you want to learn how to play football, start with basics. Train doing correct passes for a month against a wall, it will also teach you have to recieve a ball. Then you move over how to recieve the ball on the run, dribbling, and pass it on the run Passing (and running) are like 90% of the game.
9:52 That WAS the goalkeeper. The player that the attacker bounced the ball off of, was the keeper. He misplayed and got caught out way too far away from the goal, so the attacker did the best he could with that situation. While the fans of the team that got scored on might say it's unsportsmanlike most everyone else would think it's just a smart move. It happens so rarely so it's not really a problem.
At 4:05 that's not David Beckham, Thats Dennis Bergkamp, he is a fabulous Dutch player with an incredible first touch. I encourage you to look into Dutch players, Ruud Gullit, van Basten, Dennis Bergkamp, Johan Cruyff, Robben, van Persie etc. The Netherlands is the best footballing nation that has never won the worldcup (crying in Dutch tears)
Something i see you keep missing thats its the Goalkeeper that scored or did something. They are 2 colours in a team but the GK have another set of diffrent colours to them. So that bicycle kick thats had a good celebration, with the GK in purple. Well it was scored by a GK in the last minutes of the match, he ran from his goal to be part of a corner kick since its the last chance to score and if they miss its over anyways so why be at your own goal post
Part of what's crazy about the one that starts at 3:41 is that it's the goalkeeper scoring for his team. Bicycle kicks aren't exactly common goalkeeper fare.

6:35 Quaresma also definetly worth a video, he was a spectacular Player
8:20 he took him offguard, because he just set a step back and shot without running up at all.
I almost choked when you called Bergkamp Beckham. Great vid, though!
You need to react to the art of defending. I think you'll love it
With all the amazing talent in the football world, I'd say most of these can be replicated
the last Goal was from the Brazilian player Roberto Carlos. I saw that goal live on Tv and i was jaw dropped speacheless for around 10 mins, while they played the replay again and again. LOL
I was about to suggest the Dean Saunders one from the cheeky throw in, I was pleasantly surprised to see it included. I'd recommend looking at Kemar Roofes goal for Rangers. Scoring from the halfway line is pretty rare, but I've never seen it done after a dribble first.
oh wow, that was a one of a kind goal
Its so refreshing to see an American actually know who the players are.
In British English, “score” is only used as a noun when referring to the number of goals each team has at any point during the game. “The score is 2-0”. It is usually used as a verb. “He just scored a great goal”.
keep going with the sport dude its a lot of fun
5:30
he caught the keeper of guard.
lightning fast counter play.
he didn't even have time to get back into his net.
goalkeeper tend to stay pretty high when the team is in possession and pressing on.
that's not unsportmanlike, that's 200iq play right there
Keep up your discipline man, your on your way to healthy life-style... 💪
It's interesting seeing somebody who is at the start of their football journey but a place where they can verbally fully articulate what they are seeing compared to me and my friends playing when we were kids and just subconsciously noticing and picking up things that work and that don't work and not being able to verbally explain things. Also it's interesting how you're impressed with the control and dribbling the most as it's something you are finding difficult. When you get the hand of that, striking the balls is the next focus and I'll be interested to see how you do with that.
Hey Luke, I accidentally found your channel, and you are one of few Americans who truly wants to know football. As someone who has been watching this sport for more than 10 years, I have seen one unmatchable masterpiece called “Messi vs Ronaldo The Golden Rivalry”. After this video you will fall in love with football, and you will truly understand that they had the greatest rivalry in the history of all sports. Watch it!
Only if you played football you can understand how magical that Bergkamp goal is, what skill and touch is necessary to do that on a first touch and score
Sees Begkamp score says have not seen Beckham yet. My football heart cries.
but still its sounds similar
best intro i ever seen, 5 sec, u are a beast of the world
You have to react to Maradona's goal to England in Mexico 86... best goal of all time
As a football (soccer) coach myself, I can tell you some of the best goals here from a technical perspective are the least “spectacular”, many are what we refer to as hit and hopes. The best goals here are Bergkamp v Newcastle as the first touch seems to defy the laws of physics, the Zidane volley in the CL final as the ball is actually behind him when he volleys it forward, the Ronaldo and Van Persie headers and the fact the Tony Yabboa goal (the second one, with all the headers) travels the entire lenght of the pitch with 6 passes without the ball touching the floor once and each player only touching the ball once.
My favourite is the Aaron Ramsey team goal
The second goal with the headers made me stop drinking. I was at that game, but offcourse i had just gone down to get more beers when that happened 😂😂
Matt Le tissier goals are class.
Just use 'score' as a verb and you won't go wrong. We don't say, "He did a score". Only use score as a noun when talking about the result. "What's the score?", "The score was 2-1". It'd be like someone watching American Football and saying something like "He played a Touchdown". I'm sure it would just sound weird to you.
Gotcha, we use score as a noun a lot in American football. I grew up hearing announcers say things like “What a score by Manning!!” “What an excellent score by _____.”
@@lukessportsacademy Understood. In that context you just replace 'score' with 'goal'. Or you could use other terms like shot, strike etc. But never score. We only use that word as explained previously. But keep up the great work.
Did you notice one of the bicycle kicks was scored by the goalkeeper.
HAPPY NEW YEAR.
For to curl the ball outwards hit it with the outside of the foot, to curl it inside hit the ball on the instep of the foot. To hit it straightish top of the foot, never hit a ball with the toe end of the boot.it takes a lot of practice, definitely not easy for someone just starting to play. In England for a lot of us, the first birthday or Christmas present we got was a football, and we played football ⚽️ every day, as soon as we could walk. I was in my 20s when I stopped playing. Knee knackered.
A goal I miss in here is Henrik Larsson when he came flyin in like a plane over the whole goalyard, and get the header in
Henke did alot of great goals, but since he played in Celtic they never got attention. Even though he won the golden booth 👍
The Roberto Carlos free kick needs a bit more of a reaction, probably the greatest free kick of all time, it almost defied the laws of physics. I think you kind of skimmed over it a little ! 🤣
I think not
As since that day i realized physics are just a myth XD
I saw that goal live on Tv and i was jaw dropped speacheless for around 10 mins, while they played the replay again and again. LOL
Van persie goal for Netherlands is a classic he scores a super man diving header. From a long pass. Then after the world cup he latches onto a long pass to score a nuts half volley for United.
I can't help but laugh at the pens kicked backwards and doing a backflip, imagining what would happen if they missed
You’ll never convince me bergkamp meant that 😂
He said he didn't. He miscontrolled it. The way he reacted is what still makes this goal genius.
He said it was on purpose
@@mbdtfnl first touch wasn’t how he intended to be, the rest was on purpose.
@@bassem21 czcams.com/video/w7fZJf0eYq8/video.html
8:40
11:05 if you're right footed, try hitting the ball with the inside of your foot to the right side of the ball. Or with the tip of your foot/toe to the right side of the ball to give it a spin and enough power so it flies and while its spinning it curves in the air
Bro, i would like to see you take a couple of shots from the outside of the box to see if you hit the crossbar. In my opinion thats the most fun way to hit a ball at the goal. It feels so good.
The goals I most remember aren't those of any single striker or off an impossible move but the cluster of them that came with Brazil's complete collapse against Germany in the 2014 World Cup.
Happy New Football Year everyone !
You score a goal, all good on your side😸
Pls watch the art of defending next, americans love it
Many goals you didn’t notice where the goalkeeper is the goalkeeper has gloves and different shirt. Like the goal where goalie scores and some more when the goalie is out
Happy New Year
Happy new year 🎈
Fine! I’ll wait
Just gotta kick the ball with side spin on it either using inside or outside of your foot. Kind of hard to perfect but when you get it you get it. I prefer outside of my foot to slice the ball as opposed to hooking it with the inside of my foot. I was a forward until I went into high school and could already curve the ball easily then I got turned into a 4 year Varsity Starting Goalie and All-State Goalie my Senior Year but was also the #1 Penalty Taker just couldn't take them in the game just in case, but a shoot-out would have me shooting first.
You should check out renee hagita's scorpion kick, definitely one of the most impressive and crazy pieces of skill.
Check out how René Higuita used his 'scorpion kick' to save goals. He is a former Colombian goalkeeper.
On the throw in that was the goalkeeper. Also on the one bicycle kick where the player had a different colored uniform than everyone else, that was the goalkeeper. He came up for the final play of the game and scored a bicycle kick.
Its good to say “he scores”
Ibrahimovic can open a bottle like 20 oz soda using a backheel roundhouse kick. Not sure if he does it with his toes or the bottom of his foot. But that is a such a unique skill. You have to see that
Need to check out Roberto Carlos’s impossible goal
Heard you want to watch some defending videos here is one of my fav: "The Art Of Defending" by TopPassion.
@1:41 Not sure how to timestamp. This goal by Papiss Cisse is likely one of the most improbable goals ever scored. The angle of trajectory and outside curve taking it away from goal as well as Cech's decent position and world class ability make his target so small and near impossible. Coupled with how fast he had to react or how little time he had to actually make that choice, showcased how in form he was at that moment of time. He was on a tear if many don't remember. But as stated just one of the most improbable finishes of all time. It was one of my favorites of all time. I'm very surprised many don't enjoy or appreciate it as much as it deserves. One of the best goals ever. Just the confidence to attempt and reaction time required could only be made by a player in top form. It was truly special
For me that Cisse goal is one of the most impressive and beautiful goal ever. Watched it 1000x.
@@Eliaso79 Awesome. I knew there would be a few others that understood and admired what a goal it was. I'd had no idea how to find it after years and years of searching. I think i related it to cisse and chelsea as opposed to Newcastle, then it appeared on the Premier League goals of the decade for last decade obviously. When that came out I literally watched it about 40 times that day
2nd goal i was in the stadium watching that :D
Peter Møller from FC Copenhagen scored
Actually that zidane goal, exactly 1:1 by Dzeko this year as well. Anyone interested look it up, they line up perfectly. Him and Dzeko. Crazy
you were surprised by goalkeepers scoring goals, while not UNHEARD OF it is pretty rare these days, you should react to José Luis Chilavert ((Paraguayan GK who for a LONG time played in a team here in Argentina and has scored from his own goal to the other side)), and René Higuita ((Colombian GK who usually would come out of his area and act as a regular player even scoring goals from Free Kicks ))
The physics of the curving ball has always fascinated me (since I discovered the game as a teenager 45yrs ago). It's mostly about the rotation, but a soccer ball also has seams - like a baseball. Shots/passes that move like that are like pitching a curve or slider with your *foot*! It's tough to do. I can back-heel, I can toe poke, I can chip with my inside arch, but I still can't '..bend it like Beckham..'. 🤣Did I see in one of your thumbnails that you picked up a Dallas T-shirt? Welcome aboard! MLS isn't the top league in the world - but it's *ours*. And we're getting better. Greetings from Atlanta. I don't know if we play each other this year or not..in MLS you play everybody in your own conference twice (home/away), but only half the other conference every other year. I'll crack one open for ya next time I see FC Dallas on TV!
On football manager game I created MLS like europe structure its way better, are there any plans to change the competition?
one big flaw is that there is no promotion and relegation system. A soccer team needs time to develop over years and with the current system its more like every year anybody can win the league. I understand the benefit from that but long term you can't really grow.
I guess the distance is to big to make it a normal competition with 20 teams and 3 that can relegate. Long term the teams will start improving and take that draft system away.
@@diazclemenza3591 , I think one of the problems here is that in the US, folks don't think of their local clubs as *institutions* yet. Everywhere else I've been in the world, even in the smallest towns the locals will say "..this is our fire department, this is our school, and this is our football club!" Nothing like that exists here (I hope it will one day!!).
I also think promotion/regulation would be good for improving the quality of play in the US, but getting into first division (MLS) here is *expensive*. The league wants millions of dollars to grant a franchise to a club, and even then- if there's no plan to spend millions more on a new stadium, you're denied. These business people who invest in these clubs & stadiums will not allow relegation at any cost. To them, it's not about the game, it's about the money. They know most American supporters are not particularly passionate, they just want the 'big league' matchday experience. I''m sure you've seen Atlanta games in videos with anywhere from 45,000 to 70,000 fans. If we were relegated, about 20,000 of us would stay, and everyone else would just drive to Charlotte (3 1/2hrs) or Nashville (4-5hrs) and support them instead. The owners here will not even talk about pro/rel. Not yet, anyway. Maybe my grandchildren will see it! 😅
Dude, you should see the Clarke goal for Sunderland against Reading. It’s vintage Tiki-Taka goodness.
you doing good my friend ¡
If you say they scored, no one will beef you. But when you say they have a score that will cause issues. They have a goal!
Anyone who has time on their hands to criticise someone saying scored clearly needs a new hobby. If you'd said soccer now that's a different story :D Only kidding, as long as you enjoy the sport then just ignore the trolls.
The second goal the ball didn’t touch the ground once when the goalkeeper kicked. That’s very rare
"I havent seen Beckham yet" during the epic Bergkamp goal.. Ffs maan 😂
If you wonna see a strange curve on a free kick, watch Ronaldos and Juninhos free kicks. They go left and then right and vice versa, crazy and undefendable
Those massive curves are "easy" to achieve (but not to aim), just hit the ball with your 3 littler toes, the outer side of your foot. That creates the rotation needed for the ball to curve like that, but again, to be able to aim it like that, that's skill and talent
Btw, don't be bothered by what others think of the term 'scoring a goal'. It is correct. Football is embracing of all terminology, naming, etc. The love for the game is what matters.
10:57 Roberto Carlos goal is legendary
A bit of a tip for you. If you want to learn how to use your none dominant foot, all you need is a tenis ball and a smallish wall. Then you start kicking the tenis ball against the wall, but every kick has to be with a different foot, then slowly over time just with the none dominant foot one kick with the inside and the next with the outside of the foot.
OK you'll it will never be as good as your dominant foot, but you will not be scared of using it, because you will have learnt how to control the ball with it.
And if you teach it to young kids, you'll be suprised at how quickly they adapt to it.
This video could just be all Ibrahimovic I swear
Funny thing: Salah actually scored another pretty similar goal to the one he scored at 1:21 like 4 years later against RB Salzburg in the Champions League.
“Henry”💀🤣
greetings from a Manchester United fan
Fun Fact: Zidane made the goal (1:10) in the 2002 Champions League final against Leverkusen. Bayer finished 2nd in all 3 competitions (Bundesliga, DFB Cup and Champions League) that year, which earned the club the nickname "Vizekusen" for some time after three 2nd places in the previous five years in the Bundesliga without ever having won the championship. To make matters worse, 5 Bayer players (Ballack, Schneider, Ramelow, Neuville and Butt) were part of the German team that lost the World Cup final against Brazil in the same year.
Estados unidos ni siquiera lo intento en el football, por eso es loco ver hasta donde pueden llegar! Entrenen.
2:05 thats such a fuckn mario balotelli goal
couldve been a real legend the guy
Also, don't worry about saying soccer, here in Ireland we say soccer sometimes as we have our own football, gaelic football. Maybe check it out. It's kinda like soccer and rugby combined. We call it 'gaelic' for short too and then football - football, but some would call them Football and Soccer. Confusing I know :D at least both often use the foot compared to American Football :P
"It´s the buttgoal...hehehe"
Born and raised in England and everyone I know uses the word score. You can even shout SCORE! When they score. Don't let people dictate your language
(Unless you're calling it soccer lol)
Get Fifa 23, it's pretty fun. You'll learn waaay more about football by playing Fifa, trust
Don't worry, people who are talented at playing football generally start between the ages of 3-5 and practice with the ball for at least a few hours every day up until they get selected for a professional team or even remain as an amateur. Besides all the organised club and representative stuff I was involved in, I used to kick around with my brother after school until the sun went down most days. There is skill involved in all sports, but some more than others. I have a problem with sports that over emphasise height, running speed etc. Within football there is a place for anyone who is dedicated, but athletic stats aren't or should not be the be all and end all. Usain Bolt wanted to be a footballer all his life and when he retired he tried out at a few clubs around the world. His last stop was the Central Coast Mariners in the Australian League. Despite being the fastest man alive, having some decent football skills and a passion for the sport, and the media attention and advertising that would support the deal, his trial was not successful at the club. The game seems simple, but goals are rare, possession is king, tactics and quick thinking are important. With so many people playing the game throughout the world and the rewards that flow from it, there is such a range of talent in this game and it takes a lot to make it to the top.
Should check out Juninho free kick goal, Fabio Quagliarella long shots and Peter Crouch Podcast on youtube
I would like reactions to Latin American soccer, goals from the Copa Libertadores or from the leagues of the countries
Use a tennis ball to practice - kick it against a wall and then work to trap and control the rebound ready for the next pass/shot. Just like your jab is king in boxing, your first touch control is everything in football. (Don't really need pace or athleticism, check out the old premier league player Matt Le Tissier for proof...)
(That said, I was only ever a centre back; heading was more my practice drill...)
You really gotta vlog the first time you attend an FC Dallas home game. The atmosphere ain't really the best over there (the stadium's always half empty), but you're gonna have fun!
No worries fella!
you need to check out a juninho pernambucano montage of freekicks one of the best ever
If you want to learn how to play football, start with basics.
Train doing correct passes for a month against a wall, it will also teach you have to recieve a ball.
Then you move over how to recieve the ball on the run, dribbling, and pass it on the run
Passing (and running) are like 90% of the game.
9:52 That WAS the goalkeeper. The player that the attacker bounced the ball off of, was the keeper. He misplayed and got caught out way too far away from the goal, so the attacker did the best he could with that situation.
While the fans of the team that got scored on might say it's unsportsmanlike most everyone else would think it's just a smart move. It happens so rarely so it's not really a problem.
4:35 IbraHAMovic 😂
At 4:05 that's not David Beckham, Thats Dennis Bergkamp, he is a fabulous Dutch player with an incredible first touch.
I encourage you to look into Dutch players, Ruud Gullit, van Basten, Dennis Bergkamp, Johan Cruyff, Robben, van Persie etc.
The Netherlands is the best footballing nation that has never won the worldcup (crying in Dutch tears)
Funny how there are many back of the foot goals in a video titled ‘goals that cannot be repeated’
9:14 the football player name's Francesco totti he is a legend of italian football
"Back of his foot shot" we simply call those 'backheels'
The player flipping taking penalty what !! Imagine if he did that here in England 🏴 lol 😂
Something i see you keep missing thats its the Goalkeeper that scored or did something. They are 2 colours in a team but the GK have another set of diffrent colours to them.
So that bicycle kick thats had a good celebration, with the GK in purple. Well it was scored by a GK in the last minutes of the match, he ran from his goal to be part of a corner kick since its the last chance to score and if they miss its over anyways so why be at your own goal post
11:04 my man thinking he will be able to curve it like Roberto Carlos 💀love the optimism tho
If you ever play pool table. Try hitting the ball like when you play pool table and to curve the ball. It's the same concept.
