- serif69, on 04/10/2008, -7/+101This would have more Diggs if it were titled "Top 50 Football Goals".
Seriously, calling it "soccer" only plays to the one country in the world that hates it. - ChefAnubis, on 04/10/2008, -5/+70GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- ventsi, on 04/10/2008, -9/+70awesome
love this game - NightcrawlerX, on 04/10/2008, -9/+68No wonder it is the most played sport in the world.
- relaxer4, on 04/10/2008, -3/+52Good to the see The Beautiful Game on the front page.
- ChefAnubis, on 04/10/2008, -1/+46whats better then? a sport with ***** commercial breaks every 5 minutes?
- remakeru, on 04/10/2008, -5/+45FOOTBALL!
- Jauladeoro, on 08/27/2008, -1/+33Awesome. This made me want to actually go outside and play. See ya later, Digg.
- NathanMahdavi, on 04/10/2008, -7/+38You suck
- overkilpro, on 04/10/2008, -4/+35I will never understand why it isn't called football over here...
- blinkatron, on 04/10/2008, -5/+34This video would have been a lot more enjoyable WITHOUT U2
- overkilpro, on 04/10/2008, -2/+29strange that it's called football though when in American Football you mostly use your hands...
- ChefAnubis, on 04/10/2008, -2/+26cause FOOTBALL is awesome!
- exomni, on 04/10/2008, -6/+3022 minutes of orgasmic football greatness.
- quiznos, on 04/10/2008, -0/+22The music was terrible.
- lennybird, on 04/10/2008, -2/+23You know, when I was a stereotypical american, I said soccer sucked, too. I then turned 12 (-maddox), and actually went out and played it. Now in a league, loving every minute of it. Soccer > Baseball... Paintball, idk. I'd say equal.
- Twelve-60, on 04/10/2008, -2/+18I think anyone would rather watch commercials then watching grass grow? However I'd prefer the soccer game myself.
- bicyclethief, on 04/10/2008, -2/+18Loved Cantona's reaction.
- trigon77, on 04/10/2008, -2/+18We're not going to sit here and explain the digg algorithm for the billionth time.
- FreddieD, on 04/10/2008, -1/+15Those goals were truly fantastic. On the flip side, for us goalkeepers, here is a compilation of the top 20 saves.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zy6q9onewi4 - demps, on 04/10/2008, -0/+13That is quite possibly one of the most idiotic comments I have read on Digg.
- TripleAStacked, on 04/10/2008, -1/+13That #10 Robert Carlos needs to be in Top 5. That shot was physically impossible to make..Click on the Youtube link below to see the mathematical explanation .....Other than that great video. I love Okocha !!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwRYYeEk5Eg - ajfullerton, on 04/10/2008, -0/+12Some nice goals, but missing a few. The guy who compiled it seems to favor individual efforts rather than team goals, ie the brazil team effort should be much higher than 22.
Others to consider (after this was made):
Cambiasso - http://youtube.com/watch?v=6R_iYLca2gc
Gerrard - http://youtube.com/watch?v=aWlsWbPhS3M
Best - at 1:45 of this one - http://youtube.com/watch?v=Gvav4s5qOb0
Brown - http://youtube.com/watch?v=eqexQQc49dk - vptel, on 04/10/2008, -3/+14no wonder it's called FOOTBALL NOT SOCCER!!!!!!!!
- DistantBL, on 04/10/2008, -0/+11where's Leo Messi?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hokq-7olthE
nice video though. - TheDiceMan, on 04/10/2008, -4/+15buahahahaha - American Football is Rugby for the metrosexuals.
I always did wonder why all the padding. Maybe they bruise like peaches. Bless - sdrawkcabton88, on 04/10/2008, -1/+12poor music choices... esp that last one extended
- vptel, on 04/10/2008, -1/+11Depends, does is matter what we call u wellyuk? or should i just say *****
- mgrest, on 04/10/2008, -0/+10Yes but one of them has no comedy value...
- exomni, on 04/10/2008, -4/+14#25 and #22.
I came. - JohnP, on 04/10/2008, -1/+10There wouldnt be an issue if you guys called american football american football, but as it stands there is a conflict in names, and as soccer football came first and is MUCH bigger it makes sense that soccer is the assumed reference when someone just states 'football'...
Its pretty obvious. - tombstoned, on 04/10/2008, -3/+12No Pele?
- EarlOfLade, on 04/10/2008, -1/+10It's name should have been:
American Armpitoval - mgrest, on 04/10/2008, -0/+9It would interesting to find out who the guy is that put this compilation together. Mr prediction is that he's an approx 35 year old guy from the UK. Some of the goals that were included in this from the English league (Premiership and Division One) are not the usual candidates that appear in stuff like this.
Good to see that he knows his football; some goals from some names that are not that well known outside of the UK; Dalian Atkinson, Trevor Sinclair, Matt Le Tissier, Tony Yeboah.
Also, I think all of these goals are from 2001 or earlier...so an old (but good) compilation. - petepete, on 04/10/2008, -0/+9It is Van der Vaart not Van Der Faart... (number 24)
- thelock65, on 04/10/2008, -6/+14Anyone else think the #1 goal shouldn't be #1?
- fxu1989, on 04/10/2008, -2/+9A game that truly takes skill to be good.
- ExiL3, on 04/10/2008, -1/+8So Wellyuk: what has this to do with American football? There wasn't any America in the midieval ages... you really think they stuck with the name just because some pesants played by foot hundreds of years before American football ever existed????
...please explain - superPipo, on 04/10/2008, -3/+10You're a little late with the countdown. It already started above you.
- vptel, on 04/10/2008, -0/+7oohhh ahh cantona
- inactive, on 04/10/2008, -1/+8Still hurts, no?
Greets from Argentina. ;-) - TheDiceMan, on 04/10/2008, -11/+18and que the inevitable 'digg yin and yang' of football bitching...

- fxu1989, on 04/10/2008, -3/+9Call it handball
- crazyhorse13, on 04/10/2008, -0/+6And #5.
O.O - pault107, on 04/10/2008, -0/+6Legends.
- MtheoryX, on 04/10/2008, -0/+6* Football is awesome; American football is not.
Corrected. - gincarnated, on 04/10/2008, -1/+7Because it's not 1880 anymore and Football is the common term these days.
- Po0py, on 04/10/2008, -0/+5He always had that arogance about him. He stands still during games as if to say, "I'm ***** great, non?"
He was a great footballer though. Can't take that away from him. -
