Title: Greatest strikes in football history
Post by: ncRover on September 11, 2024, 04:02:28 pm
What’s your favourite screamer of all time? Post a video link if you can.

For me (despite it being a Leeds goal sorry), it’s Tony Yeboah’s goal against Wimbledon.

It’s the combination of ball control, beating a man and the shape of his body as he strikes it with such raw power - all without breaking stride. Oh and it has the bonus of hitting the bar and going in.

Jonny Rep,  Netherlands vs Italy 1978 World Cup.

For me it’s Eder for Brazil against the USSR in the 1982 World Cup, Zico allowing the ball through his legs for Eder to run onto, flicked the ball up with his right foot volleyed with his left and the keeper never saw it.

Been loads but for Rovers Brian Stock away at Forest readily springs to mind.
What a strike that was.

Trying to recall the scorer but the guy who scored for the Netherlands at 2010 World Cup semi final? Van Bronckhorst maybe?


For us, Brian Stock at Forest away! Think Piquionne also hit one at Forest away a few seasons later too.

When I seen the thread heading,I thought Tony Yeboah,he scored more belters than anyone,this is one of my favourites    https://www.youtube.com/shorts/FmN0_z35b3U

Both stocky's against Crewe away in JPT and Forest away and Sean Thornton's belter in the thriller against Villa are top of my list for great strikes.

Ernie Hunt volley for Coventry against Everton, 1970   watch (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1M57_pRjhk)


This innovation actually resulted in a change to the rulebook to require that a free kick be taken with only one foot.

Giggs v Arsenal in the FA Cup was quite something, as was Baggio v Czechoslovakia Italia 90.

Think I’m partial to a good dribble… :)
