      Best Goal of World Cup (so far)
      Jun 16, 2014 06:37:04 am
      Okay, I haven't seen all the goals but the three best I've seen so far are these:

      Rvp super goal against spain. 2014 fifa world cup Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless handheld...

      Messi Amazing Goal - Argentina vs Bosnia 2-0 - World Cup 2014

      GOAL ~ Italy vs England 1:2 ~ World Cup 2014

      What are yours?

      Perhaps as the tournament comes to an end we can have a poll to vote for the best goal in the World Cup.

      Messi's goal wasn't anything special.

      RvP's goal I've never seen anything like.

      Can't argue with this.

      Messi's was "amazing" because he plays for Barca, and Argentina.

      RvP's was superb. The Cross, the assessment, and the implementation of that header was just excellent.

      Messi's goal was a great goal.  Fair enough - it may not be the best goal (agree about RVP) but it was 'something' special.  Move started on the half way line and he didn't even need to look up at the goal. 

      If Suarez scored it you would be saying it was a fine goal.

      Very true.

      However, RVP's goal is my favorite so far. It was a brilliant deep cross and a kind of finish I've never seen before. Such class.

      I have to agree with you guys, RVP's goal was amazing. Historic goal for my country, probably on par with Bergkamp's goal against Argentina in 1998. Although Van Bronckhorst's goal against Uruguay last World Cup was great too.

      Everybody is still buzzing about the game here.

      As a team goal I loved the devastating simplicity of England's equaliser but in terms of iconic goals that RVP header is already right up there.

      Agreed about the RvP goal, best of the tournament so far, and it will take some goal to better it.

      Messi's goal is (I think) softened a bit by the fact we mostly expect him to score special goals as a matter of course.

      The Sturridge goal was a cracker, but it was the turn, acceleration and pass from Sterling that stood out for me, rather than rooneys cross. A great run to the back post by Sturridge as well.

      I love that goal, and watching it today brings back so many memories as well.

      It's going to take something special to beat the RVP header. The ball in is beautiful, the header is incredible.

      Not at all the best goal but I really liked Honda's touch and finish.

      RVP's goal reminds me of the type of headed goals you could score on the computer 'Sensible Soccer' football game back in the day

      Now that's a blast from the past

      As much as it pains me....RVP's header was absolutely amazing. Don't see it getting topped but I sure hope so.

      Not even close to RVP's. Most players wouldn't even have thought to try what RVP did.....that was the beauty of it for me...pure creativity.

      RvP's goal all day for me. That was a sick header. Hate the c**t like any of us on here, but the man can FINISH.

      Messi's was a great goal too. The run, explosion of pace and finish were excellent.

      These weren't by any means outstanding goals, but I liked Dempsey's and Ayew's goals last night. That little touch by Dempsey passed the defender was spot on, plus perfect placement at the far post. Ayew's was awesome team play, not to mention he found the exact pocket of space needed between the US backline and midfield to get off a great strike. Honda's the other night was similarly good.

      Awesome clip.

      That has to be the best goal so far. Quality.

      Liked the Ghana goal against USA, Sturridge's was a nice team goal, and the Ivory Coast goals were great because of the crosses. Not too many stunning goals but the quality in the team effort for most of the goals has been great to watch.
