Contemplated making this a poll, but then decided against it. Not really seeking
others' opinions, although naturally they are welcomed. This can be seen, perhaps,
as a disgustingly blatant homage to the aviophobic one, or more [as I would prefer]
just a recognition of footballing genius.

Watched a programme on television last night that proclaimed to have listed
the 50 best goals ever scored in World Cup football - brilliant they were, though
I certainly took issue with the order in which they were presented. Particularly
displeased by the fact that goal number 2, the 'second greatest', was as they
said, "one you don't actually remember". I remember it. I remember watching it
live, jumping about like a mad thing, and maybe even for a moment wishing that
I was Dutch. Alas, I am not, nor am I a fan of the Arsenal. However, it is better
than Carlos Alberto in the 1970 final, it is more amazing than the little man in '86,
and even Archie Gemmill in 1978. It was scored during one of the France '98
quarter-finals, with only a couple of minutes left to play - the commentator
makes sure you don't forget his name.

Please do watch, and appreciate.

[The quality isn't great, so you might not be able to see how good his close
control of the ball is - would have uploaded a better one which I have, but I
wanted to link to a video with the Dutch commentary rather than the English.]
