What’s YOUR favorite World Cup goal? Let us know below!

[MegaBadseed]

That Pavard goal was to perfection, Tim Cahill vs Netherlands was crazy good too. So many goals over the years missed out.

[WERTYUIO]

Diego Maradona. The only man capable of scoring the most famous and the most infamous goal in the same game.

[yusufneequaye]

How is Robin Van Persie's flying header against Spain in the 2014 edition not part of the list, WatchMojo😭😭??

[Subatimicopassaro]

Ronaldinho's free kick against England in 2002 should be here

[ryanairtm]

Diego Forlan vs Germany in 2010 and Van Persie's "flying Dutchman" should be on this list

[GrgIvnBcknll]

I've always remembered Joe Cole's goal for England against Sweden in 2006. Excellent ball control followed by a wicked volley into the top corner

[seskypapaya]

I love how much work she puts to pronounce those names accurately. Kudos to that

[bluegold]

I'm surprised Van Persie's flying header against Spain in 2014 didn't make the list. That was amazing!

[-locke-]

Gio van Bronckhorst's worldie is probably my favourite goal ever that I've seen live on TV. You can't hit the ball better than that. Absolute perfection.

There is no way Richarlison's goal is better than James Rodriguez's goal against Uruguay

[joelthorpe]

Cambiasso for Argentina needs to be mentioned. Can't remember who it was against but it had like 45 passes or something before the ball hit the net, it was a superb goal. Argentina also scored a majestic free kick against England in 98 that never gets a mention yet is one of the best 'team' free kicks you will see.

[TSierra]

As a Colombian, watching James Rodriguez’s goal always puts a smile on my face :)

[joelmartinezfantini]

Manuel Negrete’s goal against Bulgary has to be at least number 2 in this list

[gerardomontoya]

Manuel negrete goal was a beautiful goal in 1986 Mexican world cup

[adrianruvalcaba]

Van Persie's header against Spain and Borgetti's header against Italy should be on the list

[pineapplesareyummy]

That Saudi goal should be ranked higher than this. It looks not dissimilar to Maradona's "Goal of the Century", except he started even deeper in his own half, he ran faster, and the goal was just as improbable.

[diegog]

Notice a couple of things:
1. She said football 👍🏻
2. Maxi Rodríguez is not lefty 🤯
3. Impossible to please everyone with a top 10 of goals of a tournament that began in 1930 🤷🏻‍♂️

[ronsimpsonll]

I got to see Pele play. Awesome
I was a goalie in my youth. Damned good too. Top ranked. Always watch the feet and the ball. The ball scores the goal not the person kicking it. The feet will tell you where the ball is going...

[andrewserieys]

Man that Richarlison goal is wayyy tooo high up
