I like Cahill's the best. That kind of volley with his left foot is amazing...

[Marlo_Stanfield]

He's a righty, I wasn't 100% sure but I checked it now.

:biggums: :biggums: :biggums:
to bad that was his last WC game.
what a legend:bowdown:

[Jasi]

Van Persie takes it for the moment imo.
Doesn't look that difficult but it is, moreso than Cahill's. It's awesome.

[b1imtf]

RvP or Cahill. Too close for me call.

[arkain]

RVP or Cahill, you can make an argument for either.
And Chile's first goal against Spain was amazing too.

Wish Pirlo's free-kick went in, would have been jizzing still.

[alenleomessi]

i would say cahill 1st, RVP 2nd, messi 3rd

underrated because he has done it 100 times

underrated because the defender touched the ball and essentially changed the shot into a goal

Van Persie did it against Spain.

Spain. Bosnia. Spot the difference.

[alenleomessi]

Van Persie did it against Spain.

Spain. Bosnia. Spot the difference.
One will go home and the other will go to the 1/8 final

[Jasi]

Van Persie did it against Spain.

Spain. Bosnia. Spot the difference.

Damn RagaZ, if there is one goal where the opponents are irrelevant, it is Van Persie's

[Booz Vivic]

Chile's 2nd vs. Spain is much better than that Messi goal.

WPOTY award goes to alanleomessi.

[RagaZ]

Damn RagaZ, if there is one goal where the opponents are irrelevant, it is Van Persie's
Holland would have lost the game without that goal.

European and World Champions = Irrelevant.

[alenleomessi]

begovic would have caught that

[Akrazotile]

Tie between USA's first goal and USA's second goal.

[Done_And_Done]

The Pirlo dummy, which led to Marchisio's strike was pretty schnazzy...

This is like talking about a hot chick without posting pics.

The bias from you is showing. Good goal but not great.

The Architecht :applause:

[plowking]

Cahill's goal was undoubtedly the best goal of the WC so far, and will more than likely remain that way.

Getting a lob from just about halfway, coming from behind you, striking it with your weak foot, flush, and nailing it through the roof of the goal is pure class. RVP's goal is nice in terms of instinct and what not, but this goal is just pure brilliance.

[KyleKong]

Clint with an Allen Iverson crossover.

[Bosnian Sajo]

Dempsey doesn't belong in this thread. His goal was good, please don't get me wrong, but it doesn't compare to Cahill's or Van Persie's goals. Hell, I'd also mention Robben when he ****ed with Casillas :oldlol:

[Gr]

Robben pwning Ramos.

the first one was brilliant the second one a very rare dick-goal

[Andrei89]

Jermaine Jones goal was awesome.

But since, the thread is entitled World Cup Goal of the tournament...that goal is not even top 5.

1. Tim Cahill volley v the Netherlands
2. Van Persie Header
3. Messi late 90th minute goal
4. Robben destroying one of the fastest Centre Backs in the world Sergio Ramos and breaking the top sprint speed ever recorded by Fifa.
5. Marchisio's goal because of Pirlo mastermind

I am not even biased, but , two of the top 5 goals came from the same game.

[alenleomessi]

messi first due to long range,importance and everything that happened in that game

[step_back]

Not the best goal of the tournament but one that I thought was impressive was from Granit Xhaka. The game was already lost but it was still an impressive volley.

Skip to the 3:37 mark.

I'm Italian so the Pirlo dummy play was extra sweet for me to watch but I actually think the Jones goal might be more impressive. Such a cracker...

[Jasi]

1. RvP
2. Cahill
3. Messi vs Iran
4. Jones
5. Gervinho

[RagaZ]

Dont think there's been a great goal in this WC that we will remember for years to come.

Tells you how bleh the tournament has been so far.

[plowking]

1. RvP

You can't rate a header over a volley coming from behind you while being delivered from the half way line. It's so much harder to control the volley, and not to mention on your wrong foot. I just don't see it.

then dont watch b*tch

[Jasi]

RvP's header needed much more control and coordination than Cahill's volley.
It is far more difficult to control the direction and power of a header rather than a volley, considering they were delivered from similar distances and the header came while diving.
Add that RvP never looked at Casillas while the ball was coming, so it's a big plus for the peripheral view/instinctive feeling on Iker's position.

PS Most modern players don't have a weak foot. Sure there is a favourite one, but had Cahill's left foot really been weak, he'd have never even tried that.
